Question 1

How does AI photo colorization work?

Accepted Answer

Upload a black and white photo and our AI adds realistic, natural-looking color to skin tones, hair, clothing, and background while keeping everything else — including any scratches or damage — exactly as it is.

Question 2

Will colorizing my photo also fix scratches or damage?

Accepted Answer

No. Colorize only adds color and leaves everything else untouched. If your photo also has damage you want repaired, use the Restore Old Photo tool instead.

Question 3

Will the AI change faces or identity when adding color?

Accepted Answer

No. The AI is instructed to preserve facial features, identity, and expression exactly — only color is added.

Question 4

What happens if I upload a photo that’s already in color?

Accepted Answer

The tool detects this and returns your photo unchanged.

Question 5

Is the photo colorizer free to try?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can try it for free. Sign up to get welcome credits and start colorizing photos instantly — no credit card required.
