How it works

From source to finished result.

The workspace keeps setup simple while giving you clear checkpoints before anything is downloaded or published.

  1. 1

    Upload the best available scan

    Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image up to 10 MB, ideally scanned flat at the highest practical resolution.

  2. 2

    Run AI restoration

    The model repairs visible damage, improves faded detail and may add plausible color to the photograph.

  3. 3

    Compare with the original

    Inspect identity, text, clothing, objects and historical details before downloading or sharing the restored PNG.

Created for practical, responsible use.

Restoration creates a plausible reconstruction, not verified historical truth. Review faces, uniforms, signs, colors, dates and fine details before archival, journalistic, legal or family-history use. Only upload images you are allowed to process.

Frequently asked questions

Before you begin.

Can AI recover details that are completely missing?+

No. It may create plausible replacement detail, but cannot verify information that was not preserved in the source. Treat reconstructed areas as AI-generated.

Will black-and-white photos be colorized?+

The restoration model can produce plausible colorization. Those colors may not be historically accurate, so verify them when accuracy matters.

What output format is provided?+

The restored result is saved as a PNG in your private Sahera AI project history.
