PixGrid Colorize Photo
What it is
PixGrid Colorize Photo is a browser tool that adds color to black-and-white or badly faded photographs, including skin, hair, and clothing. Its Restore Color workflow applies color with one tap and does not use extra sliders. PixGrid recommends repairing scratched or dusty prints with Fix Old Photo before colorizing. The service says sharp scans produce better results than dim or crooked phone photos and advises checking faces before printing. Each black-and-white colorization costs 2 AI credits. The colorizer opens in the browser for free, while restore actions use credits on one-time passes. Supported browsers include Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. The Free plan costs nothing and provides watermarked exports. Day Pass costs $2.99, paid once for 15 credits and unwatermarked exports for 24 hours; Pro Month costs $9.99, paid once for 120 credits and unwatermarked exports for 30 days; Ultra Pass costs $29.99, paid once for 500 credits and unwatermarked exports for 30 days. Paid passes do not auto-renew. Export formats include PNG, JPEG, WebP, SVG, and PDF.
