AI Photo Colorizer: Turn Black and White Photos into Color

Upload the photo on this page, wait a few seconds while the AI colorizes it, then compare the before and after versions and download the color image.

Yes, for Standard. Each Standard colorization uses 4 of your 10 free daily credits once you sign in (one free try without an account); free results are JPGs up to 2048 px with a small watermark. The Pro model costs 8 credits per photo. You can buy a credit pack without creating an account, or subscribe to Pro for 400 credits a month. Results paid with credits have no watermark and are not downsized.

Both only add color and keep your photo's faces and details. Standard is fast, costs fewer credits, and works well on most photos, but it can occasionally give skin or skies an orange or pink cast. Pro uses a professional colorization model with more natural skin tones and fewer color casts, and exports at your photo's full resolution.

Not exactly. Black and white photos don't store color, so the AI predicts natural colors from context. Skin, sky, and plants usually look right. Clothing and objects can differ from what they really were.

Usually, yes. Skin, hair, and plants are the areas the model handles most reliably. Very faded, low-contrast, or heavily damaged scans can come out too warm or too gray, so enhance those first.

Yes. Repair scratches, tears, and stains with Photo Restoration first. If the scan is only soft, sharpen it with the AI Photo Enhancer, then colorize. The colorizer adds color but does not fix blur or damage.

The colorizer is built for black and white and grayscale photos. For pictures that still have faded or washed-out color, the AI Photo Enhancer is usually the better choice.

Yes. It runs in mobile browsers on iPhone and Android. Choose a photo from your library, then download the colorized result.

Yes, if you attach the photo and ask. A chat image model redraws the whole picture, so faces and details can change along with the color. Here Standard uses DDColor and Pro uses Topaz Colorize, models built only to add color to the photo you upload.
