Handing over your family's oldest photos takes trust. Here is what we do with them, and what we don't.
Your photo is used for your restoration only. It never goes into a training set.
Your photos and results are shown only to you. Nothing is published unless you share a link yourself.
Uploads and results are kept so you can download them again, then deleted automatically.
Colourisation is a realistic estimate from the scene, not a record of the original colours. Switch it off to keep the photo black and white.
Usually a minute or two. You can leave the page — the result is saved to your history and you'll find it there when it's done.
60 credits per photo, or 64 with 4× HD upscaling. You can try it once without an account.
It's a realistic guess based on the scene, not a record of the original colours. You can turn it off to keep the photo black and white.
Your uploads and results are kept for 30 days so you can download them again, then they're deleted automatically. We don't use your photos to train models.
In a drawer, an album, deep in your camera roll. Pick one and try it.
