Three steps to a restored photo
Upload
Upload a scan or snap a photo of your old print. JPEG, PNG, and HEIC are all supported.
Photo Insight
Nostalgia checks scan quality, glare, blur, and visible damage before the repair runs. If a better crop or rescan would help more, it tells you first.
Repair And Review
Real-time progress shows each step as it happens. Review the result against the original, then stop there or continue to colorize or enhance.
What restoration handles
Scratch & Tear Repair
Surface damage is detected and filled in with context-aware inpainting, preserving the surrounding detail.
Face Restoration
When a portrait needs extra help, face-specific repair runs automatically to recover detail while keeping the photo looking natural.
Fading & Contrast Recovery
Yellowed or faded prints get balanced tone recovery that brings back shadow and highlight detail.
Preserves Character
The model is tuned for restraint. It repairs damage without removing the qualities that make old photos feel authentic.
Every tool is one tab away
The editor groups tools by purpose so the workflow stays predictable. A persistent Photo Health banner sits above the tabs so you always know what the AI saw \u2014 damage labels, quality grade, and conservation warnings \u2014 before you spend a credit.
Fix
Restore, denoise, deblur, and deglare. The first-pass tools that repair visible damage before anything stylistic.
Enhance
Enhance, face repair, and colorize. Follow-up passes that run only when the repair has room to improve further.
Create
Background removal, animation, and filters. Creative tools that sit after the archive-quality pass, not before it.
Adjust
Local exposure, contrast, warmth, and saturation tuning \u2014 the finishing controls that don’t need a credit.
Crop
Straighten, rotate, and reframe. Often the single most useful fix and the last step before export.
Info
A side panel with era, subject, EXIF, Photo Insight detail, and version history \u2014 never buried in a menu.
