AI Photo Restoration — Repair Old & Damaged Photos

AI Photo Restoration repairs the damage time leaves on old prints — scratches, tears, creases, dust, and fading — and recovers faded faces and detail while keeping the people and the original composition intact. Upload a scan or a snapshot of the photo and it rebalances contrast and rebuilds damaged areas in one pass.

It is made for the box of family photos you have been meaning to save: a cracked portrait of a grandparent, a sun-faded wedding shot, a creased childhood picture. Optional colorization can bring a black-and-white print to life, and optional upscaling makes a small original large enough to reframe.

The better the input, the better the restoration — scan the original as flat and high-resolution as you can. Most scratches, fading, and tears repair cleanly; areas that are completely destroyed are reconstructed as plausibly as possible, and the tool aims to keep faces recognizable rather than inventing new ones.

Restoring old photos is often as much about preserving a memory as fixing pixels, so the tool errs toward keeping people recognizable rather than guessing at detail that is gone. Save the restored file, print it, and share copies with family — digitizing fragile prints this way also protects them from further fading and damage. For the most complete refresh, run restoration first, add colorization if the original was monochrome, then upscale so the result is large enough to frame. Everything happens in the browser — upload a scan and download the repaired photo in seconds, with nothing to install. If you have a whole box to work through, the speed makes it realistic to digitize and restore them in one sitting. Credits come in one-time packs starting at $29 for 200 credits, with a standard restoration at 3 credits and a 4K export at 10, and no subscription required.
