Media.io's free online AI denoiser that removes grain and noise from low-light and high-ISO photos in one click.
FreemiumBeginnerWeb
Overview
Media.io Image Denoiser cleans the grain and digital noise out of a photo. Noise is the speckly look you get shooting in low light or at a high ISO setting. The page opens Media.io's image enhancer, where you pick a mode: smart enhance, portrait enhance, restore old photos, colour correction or upscale. Each mode runs on its own, with no strength slider.
It runs in a browser on a phone, tablet or computer, with no app. An account is required, and every account gets 5 free credits a day. Most enhancer modes cost no credits, and upscaling costs two. Paid access is a membership subscription or one-off credit packs.

When to use
Use Media.io Image Denoiser when you want a quick, automatic noise cleanup:
- You have grainy low-light or high-ISO photos and want them cleaned without learning a denoising tool.
- You want the whole job done in a browser tab, since there is no app to install on any device.
- You already use other Media.io tools and would rather denoise, enhance and upscale in one place than move files between sites.
- You want to try it without paying, since most modes in the enhancer cost no credits.
When NOT to use
Skip Media.io Image Denoiser if any of these describe you:
- You want to work without an account. Media.io makes you sign in before it will process a photo, so compare other denoise tools.
- You want to balance noise removal against detail yourself. This is one click with no settings, so a general photo editor gives you sliders for that trade-off.
- Your photo has heavy noise you care about fixing precisely. Automatic smoothing softens fine detail along with the grain, and you cannot dial it back here.
Frequently asked questions
You need an account. Every account gets 5 free credits a day, and most modes in Media.io's image enhancer cost no credits at all. Upscaling is the metered one, at two credits a run, and the Pro version of a mode costs more than the Lite version. Paid access is a membership subscription billed monthly or yearly, or credits bought as one-time packs that stay valid for two years.
Grain and speckle from low light or a high ISO setting. Heavy noise may not clear completely, and some fine detail softens as the noise is smoothed away, which is the usual trade-off in denoising.
Yes, in the same app. The page opens Media.io's image enhancer, and portrait enhancement, old-photo restoration, colour correction and upscaling are modes there, so you can run them on the same file. Upscaling spends credits where most of the other modes do not.
No. It runs in your web browser on a phone, tablet or computer. There is no separate denoiser app.
Media.io states that its image denoiser deletes processed photos within hours. The photo is uploaded to its servers to be worked on rather than handled on your device. Check its current privacy terms before uploading sensitive or client images.
