MyHeritage In Color is the colorizer to pick if your family research already lives on MyHeritage. The company says the technology was licensed from DeOldify and its creators, Jason Antic and Dana Kelley, who enhanced it over two years. You can colorize any photo already in your tree from My Photos, or upload new ones at myheritage.com/incolor. The original stays untouched and the colorized copy is saved separately at the same resolution, usually in 5 to 30 seconds. It also restores faded colors in old color prints. Anyone can colorize several photos for free, with a MyHeritage logo in the corner. Unlimited, logo-free colorization comes with the Complete plan, and the Photo subscription adds Photo Enhancer, Photo Repair, Deep Nostalgia and unlimited photo storage. We could not confirm a US dollar price from the pricing page as served here, so check it before you subscribe. We compared documented features and published prices.
