Add inferred color to a black-and-white photo.
Get the right result: check these first
Start with the black-and-white photo. Upload the source and use Generate Image. Keep the original for comparison.
Need a specific known color. Use AI Image Editor for a described color correction. Colorization infers colors; it does not verify historical colors.
Working with footage. Use Video Colorizer for a video, or Image Enhancer for a separate still-image enhancement task.

Step by step
Open Photo Colorizer and sign in.
Select Upload Image and choose the photo. Wait for the upload to finish.
Review the estimate and select Generate Image.
Compare the completed colorized image with the original, especially skin, clothing, and important objects.
Download the result you want to keep.
Are the colors historically accurate?
The tool infers plausible colors from the image; it does not establish the original real-world colors. For historical, archival, or evidentiary use, identify the result as colorized.
I need a particular color
Use AI Image Editor for a specific correction, such as changing a jacket to a known color. Verify that the edit preserves the details you care about.
The photo is blurry or damaged
Colorization and enhancement solve different problems. Use Image Enhancer for a separate enhancement workflow and inspect whether it changes fine details. For footage rather than a still photo, use Video Colorizer.
