Image Colorizer. From black and white to color

Image Colorizer is an online tool powered by artificial intelligence that allows you to colour old photos in black and white. This is a fully automatic process. Automatic and fast, Image Colorizer allows you to colorize black and white photos in just a few seconds. The tool is completely free of charge. You upload your image, one click and three seconds later, your color image can be uploaded. Note that the site does not keep any trace of the images, all uploaded photos are deleted every 24 hours. In my opinion one of the best tools of its kind.

Colourise Sg. Colorize historical photos

This tool, which also uses artificial intelligence, was designed by the University of Singapore to process historical photos. The researchers then decided to make the tool online and available to all. In very old historical photos, the magic also works. Although it is impossible to reproduce the exact conditions under which the original photo was taken, colouring the photos helps to imagine what the photographer saw. Magic to see how a little color can revive life in these snapshots out of the past. Colourise.sg also does not keep track of your images. You upload your black and white photos, the site processes them and allows you to recover colorized photos. Then everything is erased.

Algorithmia. Give a new life to your black and white photos

Algorithmia allows you to colorize a black and white photo that you upload to the site. But you can also tell him directly a url address if your image is online. Like the other color masters of this small list, a few seconds are enough to switch to color in a very realistic way an old black and white photo. It should of course be remembered that the purpose of colorization is to generate an image whose colors are plausible. It does not guarantee that the coloured image is an accurate representation of the actual snapshot over time. It goes without saying but it goes better by saying it.
Algorithmia is free like the two previous tools but a small logo will appear at the bottom of the colorized photo.

thank you it can serve
I don’t really trust online tools, I prefer programs that can be installed on a computer and used offline (e.g. Photoglory), but sometimes online photo editors can’t do it.
