In plain English

Scratches, tears, and faded black-and-white tones are what Mert Ozge's iPhone app, Repho, tries to fix. It can also sharpen a blurry shot, remove an object you do not want, and turn a still photo into a short video clip. Families pay a weekly or yearly subscription because those repairs used to mean a specialist. The image work and the billing are almost entirely the AI's job. Mert still checks quality, supports users, and offers the app in many languages.
