PixGrid Colorize Photo is a browser tool for restoring color to black-and-white or badly faded photographs, including skin, hair, and clothing. Restore Color applies color in one step without extra sliders. PixGrid recommends repairing scratched or dusty prints with Fix Old Photo before colorizing. It says sharp scans work better than dim or crooked phone photos and advises checking faces before printing. Each black-and-white colorization uses 2 AI credits. The browser colorizer is free to open, while restore actions consume credits through one-time passes. The Free plan costs nothing and exports watermarked files. Day Pass costs $2.99, paid once for 15 credits and unwatermarked exports for 24 hours. Pro Month costs $9.99, paid once for 120 credits and unwatermarked exports for 30 days. Ultra Pass costs $29.99, paid once for 500 credits and unwatermarked exports for 30 days. Paid passes do not auto-renew. Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge are supported.
