What MergeImages Photo Colorizer is

MergeImages Photo Colorizer is a free browser tool that predicts colors for black-and-white photos and scans. It is aimed at old family photographs, scanned prints and negatives, genealogy, archives, and historical images. You can open the page, upload a photo, and download a PNG without an account, email, extension, or app. The tool uses DDColor on Replicate, applies predicted color at 80% strength, and preserves the original image’s brightness channel. It accepts JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF files up to 7.5MB; images can also be pasted or supplied by URL. The output’s longest side is capped at 1024 pixels. The site says processing usually takes about 20 seconds, though cold starts can take up to a minute. Images are sent over HTTPS to its servers and Replicate, then automatically deleted within 7 days. The maker says images are not sold, shared, or used to train models. Color choices are predictions, not restorations: sepia input may be reinterpreted, and the tool does not repair scratches, tears, or fading. The free plan costs nothing.
