You scan a box of family photos, upload the first one to a restoration tool, and the face your grandmother used to recognize comes back looking like a painting — over-smoothed, wrong bone structure, invented details where the blur used to be. Clarivnt is built around the opposite promise: faithful restoration that holds onto what the original actually recorded.
Clarivnt handles fading, scratches, blur, and face detail in a single upload-and-download loop — no software to install, no editing skill required. The workflow is three steps: upload a scan, let the AI process it, download the result alongside your untouched original. The vendor explicitly states results vary with source condition and resolution, which is the honest version of the ceiling every AI restoration tool hits. Two free credits on signup let you test against your actual photos before committing to a paid subscription. There is no API and no self-hosted path, so teams needing batch automation or integration into a broader pipeline will run into a wall fast.
Bottom line: Pick Clarivnt for processing a personal archive of faded family prints through a browser with no setup; hit the limit the moment you need programmatic batch access or custom output pipelines.
20 restoration credits every billing month. One credit restores one photo. Credits valid for 30 days, do not roll over.

Users needing multiple AI portraits without photoshoots
Clarivnt is a web-based photo restoration service from Clarivnt (the company). The core workflow: upload a JPG, PNG, or WEBP scan up to 10 MB, let the AI analyze fading, blur, scratches, face detail, and background texture, then download the restored version while keeping the original file untouched. No account setup beyond registration, no software install, and — the vendor states explicitly — no public gallery step where your photo gets published before you decide what to do with it.
The standout design decision is privacy posture. The vendor states uploaded photos do not appear in any public gallery, and the tool preserves your original file separately from the restored output. For family photos that carry personal history, that matters more than it does for stock images.
Clarivnt fits a specific scenario well: a person with a box of scanned family prints who wants to work through them a few at a time through a browser. The free tier covers two restorations, and a paid monthly subscription unlocks additional credits. Where it breaks is equally specific — there is no API, no self-hosted deployment, and no described batch processing mode. A team building a document digitization product, a genealogy platform doing bulk archive work, or any workflow needing programmatic access will exhaust what Clarivnt offers before the second sprint ends.
The vendor’s own field guide notes that restoration quality depends heavily on source scan quality and that the AI works from existing detail rather than inventing it — meaning a very degraded original will produce a limited result regardless of the tool. The comparison previews on the page are labeled as visual demonstrations, not guaranteed outcomes.
