Fix.Video vs IntactFile

Fix.Video is an online service for repairing corrupted, truncated, unreadable and damaged video files. It lists MP4, MOV, M4V, 3GP, ProRes, RSV and MXF video formats, with M4A also listed on its upload page. The service says it can recover high-definition video from cameras and devices including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, Blackmagic, GoPro, iPhone, Android devices, dashcams and DJI drones. Listed damage scenarios include battery failure, crashes, water damage, hard landings, shocks, falls, camera shutdowns and defective SD cards. Uploads can be previewed, and paid repair plans list unlimited duration and file size with engineer support. A ten-file repair plan costs $59 as a one-time purchase; 25 files cost $79 as a one-time purchase, and one month of access costs $99 a month. Repair is not guaranteed, and the terms say refunds are not offered whether content is repaired or recovered. Uploaded videos are automatically deleted after five days and are not shared; viewing requires prior permission. Separate downloads include offline MP4 and MOV repair software, a free re-encoder and a read-only memory card recovery tool.

IntactFile repairs corrupted videos, PDFs, ZIP, RAR and 7z archives, Office documents, JPG and PNG photos, and SQLite databases in a browser tab. Its repair engines rebuild damaged file structures around data that remains, such as indexes or headers, and run on the user's device; the maker says files are not uploaded. Diagnosis is free for each file, so users can see the problem before choosing a repair. Repairs are checked against format rules, and failed repairs are not charged. The Free plan allows 3 repairs per day, with video files up to 50 MB and documents, archives, and photos up to 10 MB. Paid choices include a single repair for €5.90 per once, credit packs, and annual plans: Pro is €4.92 per year and Business is €16.58 per year. Business adds CLI, SDK, and MCP server access; developer repairs require an active Business subscription and Node 22 or later. IntactFile cannot recover overwritten data, video never written to disk, or files containing only zero bytes.
