Face26 vs ImageColorizer

Face26 is an AI image-enhancement service from TechArt 26 LLC, founded in 2021 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. It improves and repairs image quality with tools for unblurring, denoising, face retouching, colorizing black-and-white images, and restoring old photos. Small, low-definition pictures can be upscaled 2× or 4× to HD. In the browser app, a user uploads a photo, applies enhancement with one click, and downloads the result to a computer or smartphone. Face26 runs on web, Android, and iOS, and lists developer APIs for background removal, object removal, enhancement, background generation, compression, colorization, ID photos, and cropping. A free plan is available; weekly, monthly, yearly, image-purchase, and lifetime plans are listed without prices. Uploads are retained only as needed unless consent is given for AI improvement, after which files are kept temporarily. SSL/TLS protects transfers, and account settings provide personal-data controls subject to deletion latency and legal retention.

ImageColorizer provides AI tools to colorize, restore, enhance, retouch and repair old photos. Its colorizer adds color to black-and-white images, including skin tones, clothing, scenery and backgrounds. Restoration tools target contrast, clarity and facial detail in faded or blurry photographs, while repair tools reduce visible damage such as scratches, tears, stains, creases and water spots. Portrait retouching can improve facial clarity, reduce noise and smooth minor imperfections. The service supports JPG, PNG and WEBP, and is listed for web, Windows, Mac, iOS, iPad and Android. The free plan includes 50 credits per month and ads. Starter costs $6.90 a month, Premium costs $9.90 a month and Business costs $19.90 a month. Processing or downloading an image costs one credit, and subscription credits can roll over. The privacy policy says cloud-processed source and result images are deleted automatically within two hours. Paid users' photos should be under 100MB and 4000px on one side.
