AI Photo Enhancer is a photo service for improving images and reviving older photographs, with tools for product photos, listings, portraits, and family pictures. Its restoration options include scratch and tear repair, black-and-white colorization, denoising, and unblurring. Enhancement tools cover automatic improvements, sharpening, HDR, exposure, lighting, color correction, upscaling, and editing through text prompts. Edits can be chained on the same photo, with each step building on the prior result. Dedicated upscaling can rebuild fine detail up to 32 MP, and the service can turn a revived photo into a short living clip. New accounts receive four credits, enough for one Standard run of any tool, without a card. Standard, Pro, and Max passes cost 4, 12, and 44 credits; unused credits do not carry over to the following month. Starter costs 15.00 USD per month and includes 1,000 monthly credits; Pro costs 30.00 USD per month with 2,500 credits; Studio costs 50.00 USD per month with 5,000 credits. The service is available on web, iOS, and macOS, though its iPhone app requires iOS 17.0 or later and is not verified for macOS. Its owner and operator is Kawaii, Inc.
