Hoi Net uses AI to restore damaged old photographs, helping tens of thousands of Vietnamese families preserve and pass on their memories — free for everyday needs.
Explore our journeyHoi Net is a non-profit project that restores and enhances old photos with AI, helping every Vietnamese family preserve its most precious memories.
“Restoring memories, connecting generations”
Use AI to bring old photographs back to life, so every Vietnamese family can keep and pass on its memories to future generations — free for everyday needs.
To become the most trusted non-profit AI photo-restoration platform in Vietnam, where every old photograph has a chance to live again.
Hoi Net operates as a non-profit: core services are free, and infrastructure costs are sustained by community contributions and the parent company.
Hoi Net began with a single yellowed family photograph, creased after years in a drawer. Watching a loved one’s face slowly fade, we realised that memories do not live only in our minds — they live in our photographs.
In September 2025, a small team of young engineers and designers in Hanoi decided to turn AI into a tool for bringing those memories back — simple, kind, and open to everyone.
More than a year later, tens of thousands of Vietnamese families have seen their old photos return with colour and smiles intact. We still keep our first promise: core services stay free, and your data stays yours.
“Every restored photograph is a story that gets to be told again.”
An AI toolkit for photo restoration — from torn prints to complete family portraits
Four simple steps, usually finished within minutes
Step 1
Choose the photo to restore. Connections are encrypted and protected against bots.
Step 2
Models identify the type of damage — scratches, tears, blur, fading or grain.
Step 3
Details are rebuilt, colour and sharpness are added, and every face stays true to the original.
Step 4
For complex requests our team reviews the result before delivery. You receive the photo and an email notice.
