VanceAI Photo Colorizer turns black-and-white photos into color through a web tool or Windows desktop app. The online colorizer identifies areas such as sky, foliage, fabric, and skin, then colors them separately. VanceAI says processing takes under five seconds and the system was trained on tens of millions of real-world color photos, while cautioning that historically accurate colors are not guaranteed for every image. The free online tier accepts JPG and PNG files up to 5MB; paid online plans support files up to 10MB. Local processing in VanceAI for PC is described as having no credits, internet connection, or upload-size limits. Online credit use varies in the listed details: the FAQ says one to three credits based on image size, while the pricing page lists four credits up to 4K and eight at 4K. The free plan includes 10 credits; listed paid options include monthly plans from $15 a month and PC licenses. Uploaded images are encrypted in transit and deleted within 24 hours after processing, according to the product page. Paid credits allow commercial use of colorized results without licensing restrictions.
