Online Old Photo Restorer
Found an old photo of your grandparents in a shoebox? The one with the crease right down the middle and those faded spots that might be mold? You can bring it back. Not perfect — some damage is too deep to fully undo — but closer to what it looked like the day it was taken.
Our restoration tool works by analyzing the undamaged parts of the image and using that information to fill in the damaged areas. Think of it like a skilled restorer in a museum who reconstructs a damaged painting by studying the surrounding brushstrokes. Except this one works in seconds and doesn't charge by the hour.
Scan your photo at 300 DPI at minimum. 600 is better if the original is small. The more pixels the AI has to work with, the better it can distinguish between "intentional detail" and "decades of wear and tear."
Realistic expectations: A photo that's been folded in half for 40 years will still show a line after restoration. It'll be softer, less noticeable — but it won't completely disappear. That's okay. Some scars tell stories worth keeping.
