About This Tool

BersihBG's Photo Colorizer brings old black-and-white photographs to life using advanced AI. Whether you have scanned vintage family portraits, historical archival images, or old personal photos that were taken before the era of colour film, our AI analyzes each image and adds realistic, vibrant colours that match the scene. The tool also includes a restore feature to reduce scratches and improve clarity before colorizing.

How to Colorize a Photo

  1. Upload your photo — Drag and drop a black-and-white or sepia JPG, PNG, or WEBP file onto the upload area.
  2. Adjust intensity — Use the colour intensity slider to control how vibrant the result will be. Higher values produce more saturated colours.
  3. Enable restore (optional) — Turn on the restore toggle to denoise and reduce scratches before colorizing. This is recommended for older damaged photos.
  4. Provide colour hints (optional) — Describe the colours you want in the image, e.g. "blue sky, green grass, brown hair" to guide the AI.
  5. Colorize and download — Click the Colorize button, wait a few seconds for the AI to process, then download your newly coloured photo.

Why Use BersihBG for Photo Colorization?

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the colours produced by the AI?

The AI is trained on millions of colour photographs and can recognise common objects, landscapes, and skin tones to suggest realistic colours. For best results, use the colour hints feature to guide the AI.

Can I colorize colour photos?

The tool is designed for black-and-white or sepia photos. Colour photos can still be processed, but the AI will attempt to enhance or change existing colours, which may not produce the desired result.

How long does colorization take?

Most images are processed in 10–30 seconds. The first request may take up to a minute as the AI server initialises. Larger images and restore processing may take slightly longer.

What file formats and sizes are supported?

JPG, PNG, and WEBP files up to 25MB are supported. The output is always a PNG file containing the colorized result.

Do I need to create an account to use this tool?

Yes, colorization uses cloud AI processing, so a free account is required. Daily credits are provided at no cost, and VIP subscribers get unlimited usage.
