Colorize Black and White Photos
Turn black-and-white and grayscale photos into realistic color images automatically. The model infers plausible, natural-looking colors for skin, sky, foliage, and fabric from the photo’s content — a great way to restore old family photographs or breathe new life into archival images.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate are the colors?
The AI infers plausible, realistic colors based on the scene, but it can’t know the exact original colors of an object it has never seen — for historical accuracy, treat the result as an artistic restoration rather than a factual record.
Does it work on old scanned photos?
Yes — colorization is commonly used on scanned prints, including faded or low-contrast originals, though very degraded scans may need retouching first.
Can I adjust the colors after they’re generated?
Open the result in the editor to make manual color and tone adjustments on top of the AI colorization.
