ImageColorizer vs Restore.Photo

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.

Restore.Photo uses AI to repair damaged, faded, or blurry photographs through a web service accessible worldwide on browser-equipped devices.

The service states that average processing takes under 30 seconds. Photos are encrypted during transfer and processing and automatically deleted within 24 hours. The Free plan allows three restorations per month, standard quality, and output up to 1024x1024 resolution. Pro costs $12 a month and includes unlimited restorations, up to 4K output, advanced repair, and batch uploads of up to 10.
