Palette colorizes uploaded photos through its web app, where users choose from more than 21 filters and can refine colors with descriptions and keywords. It also supports batch processing, and its maker says a simple script can colorize over 1 million images per day. The API supports automated and custom prompts, reference images, and up to 120 prompts for one image; its platform is now RapidAPI. Images are limited to 4K resolution and 10 MB per file. A beta Video API handles frames in SD, Full-HD, and 4K. Palette documents connections with iPhone photos, Google Drive, Dropbox, and other photo apps, plus a Windows desktop application from Covenant. Uploaded files are processed and deleted shortly after results are provided. The terms say users retain ownership of their creations and may use them commercially without restrictions. The free option includes one trial credit, unlimited previews resized to 500x500px, and a watermark. Paid options are $49 one-time or $72 per year.
