KollabiuMBring an old family photo back into view
A faded print can hold a whole family story. AI Studio removes scratches and creases and adds natural colour while keeping faces, age and clothing true to the original.
From the album to a copy you can keep
- Upload your photo. Choose an old, black-and-white or faded image in JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 20 MB. Confirm that you have the right to use it and consent from the people shown or their representatives.
- Check the price, then restore. The button shows the current credit cost. Restoration usually takes about a minute. You can leave the tab; the result will be in My works.
- See what changed. Move the before-and-after slider. Download the full-resolution photo or open a draft for your feed or stories.
A family memory, ready to pass on
Keep a clearer copy of your grandparents' portrait, show it to your children or share it with relatives. There is no editing timeline or prompt to learn: repair and colourisation happen together.
AI reconstructs colours and missing details; they may differ from the real scene. Check the result against the original before saving or sharing. The people in this example are fictional and AI-generated. The restored image was made in AI Studio.
Give the restored photo a little motion
Choose Animate this photo to continue with this exact result in Animate photo. You will not pay to restore it again. Animation is a separate paid step, with its own price shown before you start.
Questions about restoring old photos
How much does restoration cost?
The restore button shows the current price before you start. Gift AI credits can be used too. If you need more credits, the studio offers a top-up.
Can I keep the image black and white?
The current mode repairs and colourises in one step. A separate black-and-white mode is not available.
Will my photo be published automatically?
No. To feed and To stories open an editor. You decide whether to publish.
Can I use my phone?
Yes. Open the studio in your phone or computer browser. Use a clear copy with both sides between 300 and 6000 pixels; very narrow panoramas are not supported.
