What Colorize Photo is

Colorize Photo uses AI to turn black-and-white photographs into color, and presents the tool for restoring historical photos and vintage images. Its free basic workflow uses the default model, needs no account, and allows full-resolution downloads with no credit limit. Premium models charge credits per image; the cost is shown beside each model before a run and does not change with image size. Credits are returned automatically when a run fails to produce an image. Purchased credits are non-refundable except where law requires otherwise, and expire only after more than 12 months of account inactivity. Users retain ownership of uploaded images and results, while the service receives a limited license to process and temporarily store them. Images are processed in the cloud: uploads are retained for 30 days after processing and outputs for 90 days or until deleted. The privacy policy says photos are not used to train AI models. The web service is identified with Ovest OÜ in Tallinn, Estonia.
