The AI detects damage types — scratches, tears, fading, stains — and applies targeted restoration to each area.

AI photo restoration applies damage detection, context-aware inpainting, and colour science — at speeds and costs that make it accessible to everyone with a box of old family photos.
Types of damage the AI handles
Physical damage: scratches, tears, creases, water stains, and missing sections. Chemical degradation: fading, yellowing, and colour shift caused by aging. Digital compression: JPEG artefacts, pixelation, and banding from low-quality scans.
Colourising black and white photos
Colourisation uses a separate AI model trained to predict realistic colours for monochrome images. It uses context clues — sky position, skin tones, foliage — to make educated colour choices. The results are impressively accurate for outdoor scenes and portraits.
Preserving restored photos
Export as PNG for maximum quality — JPEG compression will reintroduce some of the artefacts you just removed. Store the restored file separately from the original scan; never overwrite the original. For particularly valuable photos, consider professional print services that use archival inks and paper.
