Frequently Asked Questions

What file formats are supported in Kolorize?

JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF and AVIF formats are supported. Input resolution is downsampled to 4096x4096 if larger when using Kolorize. The downloaded file format after processing will be in JPG.

Is the colorization accurate?

Based on statistical principles, Kolorize colors objects using the colors that have a higher probability of being their original shades. While this may not achieve a 100% reproduction of the original colors, it results in a reasonable approximation.

Is it possible to apply Kolorize to vintage photos with sepia or yellowish/reddish tones?

Certainly. The algorithms operate on every photograph, determining whether the initial photo was captured in black and white or color. Subsequently, they proceed to colorize or restore the colors accordingly.

How much time does it take to add color or restore colors in a photo?

Kolorize usually needs 3 to 8 seconds to add color or bring back colors in a photo. The time depends on how big the photo is and how much detail it has.

Can I use this for commercial purposes?

Yes, you can. All colorized results can be used anywhere.
