Colorify

Colorify is a colorize drawing tool. Colorify repairs and colorizes old black and white photos in about 30 seconds per image, fixing tears, cracks, stains and fading while leaving faces and framing untouched. It is a narrow, per photo tool with no subscription and a free first upload.

Colorify is a focused photo restoration service built around one job: taking a scan of an old black and white photograph and returning it repaired and in color. The process runs in two distinct stages. The first stage repairs damage and sharpens faded detail while leaving every face exactly as it was. The second stage applies color, and only color, so framing, likeness and fine detail are not redrawn or reinterpreted. The whole run takes roughly 30 seconds per photo. Inputs are deliberately low friction. A flatbed scan works, and so does a phone photo of a physical print, whether the original is damaged or already in decent shape. Tears, scratches, stains and fading are the specific defects the tool claims to handle. Results come back as two versions, and a drag slider lets you pull across the image to compare the restored color against the original before downloading. The examples on the site set the expected range: childhood snapshots, 1890s studio portraits, 1920s street scenes and domestic interiors from the 1910s. That points to a family archive and local history audience rather than a general image editing crowd. There are no brush tools, layer controls or creative grading options advertised, so it is not a Photoshop substitute. It is a narrow pipeline that handles the repair and color pass for you, then stops. Pricing is per photo with no subscription. The first photo is free, and after that one credit covers one photo, sold in packs of 10, 25 or 100 at declining unit prices. Credits do not expire, which suits people working through an album in bursts rather than on a schedule. Users who want frame by frame control or manual color decisions will find the tool too automatic, and anyone needing batch volume pricing beyond the 100 pack has nothing published to work from.
