Choosing scans, repairing damage and interpreting AI restoration results.
The tool can reduce small scratches, dust, folds and fading using the visible photo as a reference. Results depend on the damage and the detail still present in the source.
Yes, the default mode asks to keep the original treatment. Choose Restore and colorize only when you want a color interpretation.
The instructions ask to preserve each person’s identity, age and expression. AI may still alter details, especially where damage covers a face, so compare the output carefully.
No. Colorization produces plausible colors, not proof of the original clothing, skin tones or surroundings. Keep the original scan as your historical reference.
Missing information cannot be reliably recovered from the photo alone. The tool is intended for visible photographs with repairable damage; do not treat invented detail as an authentic record.
Use a clear scan, or photograph the print flat under even light without glare. Include the whole photo and avoid screenshots or repeated compression. The button shows the credit cost before generation.
