Image Colorizer

Add a colour tint to black-and-white photos

Give a black-and-white or faded photo a warm, hand-tinted look. The colorizer maps the picture’s brightness to colour — richer tones in the highlights and deeper earthy or cool tones in the shadows — with a control for how strong the colour is and a warm-to-cool balance.

How to tint a photo

1. Upload a black-and-white, sepia or faded photo.
2. Set the colour strength.
3. Slide the temperature balance towards warm (golden, sepia) or cool (blue) tones.
4. Save the result.

Artistic tint or real colour?

This tool applies an artistic tint: it doesn’t know that grass is green or the sky blue. For realistic colours reconstructed by AI, use the AI Photo Colorizer; to repair scratches and fading first, try Old Photo Restoration.

Everything happens in your browser: your photo is never uploaded to a server, so it stays private and the tool keeps working on a slow connection once the page has loaded.
