Brightness lifts or darkens the whole picture; contrast sharpens the separation between light and dark.
Flat, gray scans regain readable contrast — great for old paperwork.
Adjustments run locally — photos never reach a server.
Your original file stays untouched; the corrected version is a new download.
No account, no watermark, no daily cap.
Add the image, raise the brightness slider, fine-tune contrast, and download. It takes seconds — free, no account.
