“It felt near-impossible to innovate where the big API marketplaces sit today. Halyard is smaller and moves a lot faster.”

Théo MarchandFounder & CEO, Chromatica

The challenge

Chromatica restores colour to archive photography for 1.4M people — from families in Osaka reviving 1960s prints to colourists finishing documentary features.

Théo had wanted an API product for two years, but every path he costed out started with hiring a platform team he did not have.
