Questions
Is it safe to upload my file?
Yes. Files travel over an encrypted connection. We read your original in memory to check and repair it, and we never store it. Only the repaired copy is kept, privately, so you can download it — and it is deleted automatically after 24 hours. We don't look at your files and never share them.
Why should I trust a repair I haven't seen?
You don't have to. The free check lists every problem, and the free preview shows the recovered text, pages, rows, photo or audio before you pay. If the paid file doesn't open, we refund you.
What if my file can't be repaired?
Then the check says so — for free — and explains what happened and what else you can try. We never charge for a repair we can't do.
Do I need an account or subscription?
No. You pay once per repaired file. There is nothing to cancel.
Which files can you repair?
Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), PowerPoint (.pptx), PDF, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, WebP, MP4, MOV, M4A, MP3, WAV, ZIP, TAR.GZ, GZ, SQLite, CSV, JSON, XML and text files. See the formats page for exactly what we fix in each.
How big can the file be?
Up to 50 MB for repairs. The converters run in your browser, so they handle much larger files.
My video says "moov atom not found". Can you fix it?
Not yet. That error means the video index was never written, usually because recording stopped suddenly. Rebuilding it needs a second, working video from the same camera. The free check confirms whether your video data is still there. Keep the original file safe.
Why do the converters run in my browser?
Because then your files never leave your device. It's more private, and there's no upload wait.
Will you ever ask me to run a command or paste something?
Never. Some scam sites with similar-sounding names ask visitors to paste text into the Windows Run box, Terminal or File Explorer's address bar to "fix" a file. That installs malware. TaskBionics only ever asks you to choose a file.
How do I pay?
By card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Stripe's secure checkout. We never see your card details.
