About AI Photo Restoration

AI Photo Restoration repairs old and damaged photos: scratches, tears, creases, stains, dust and heavy grain are mended, and faded faces and details are sharpened; while the exact composition and authentic period look are preserved. Nothing is added or removed from the scene.

A color option lets you choose the finish: keep the original tones exactly as they are for a faithful repair, or also colorize black-and-white and faded photos with natural, AI-inferred color in the same pass.

Scans and phone shots of physical prints both work as sources. Capture the whole print, including the damaged areas, straight-on in even light, because the AI needs to see the damage to repair it. A before-and-after slider shows the restoration before you download in full quality.

How to use AI Photo Restoration

  1. Upload an old or damaged photo: JPG, PNG or WebP; scans and phone shots of prints both work.
  2. Choose the color option: keep the original colors, or also colorize.
  3. Click “Restore photo” and wait while scratches, tears and fading are repaired.
  4. Drag the handle to compare with the original, then download the restored photo.

No: each restoration uses credits from your account, since the repair runs on an AI model. Failed restorations are not charged.

No. The tool deliberately preserves the authentic period look: it removes damage and fading, not the character of the original photograph.
