Here are some incredible examples of historical photos that we’ve colorized using MyHeritage In Color™.

The colors you’ll see in your photos are simulated automatically by the colorization algorithms - there is no manual retouching involved. MyHeritage In Color™ works on all photos - even faded photos that still have some color in them. The black and white photos remain intact and are not changed by the colorization process, which produces new photos alongside the original ones. The results are more realistic and of superior quality to those generated by other automatic colorization tools currently available. The technology was trained using millions of photos, and has developed an understanding of our world and its colors. We believe this is the best technology in the world for colorizing black and white photos. Their latest version produces colorized photos of unprecedented quality and is currently exclusive to MyHeritage. Since then, they’ve continued to improve and fine-tune the technology commercially. An early version of the DeOldify technology was contributed by Antic to the public domain in November 2018.

The photo colorization technology that powers this feature was licensed by MyHeritage from DeOldify, created by software engineers Jason Antic and Dana Kelley. When you view the colorized images next to the original black and white photos, you’ll be amazed by the difference. Imagine seeing your grandparents’ wedding photo in color for the first time, or noticing the small details portraying life on the streets of New York a hundred years ago. It allows us to view these photographs in an entirely new way, giving us new perspectives on the people and places who made us who we are today. Colorized historical photos can spark interest in the past, and help us relate more personally to events and people from times gone by. Viewing the same images in color brings them to life like nothing else can. Photos provide a unique view into the lives of our ancestors and relatives, but viewing them in black and white places them at a certain distance. We’re excited to announce the launch of MyHeritage In Color™, a groundbreaking feature to automatically colorize your black and white photos, which produces incredible results.
