Corrupted Video File Recovery for Abruptly Terminated Recordings

The user experienced a drone crash, resulting in a video file that never finished writing due to sudden power loss. The data is present but inaccessible. This is a common problem not only with drones but also with action cameras, dashcams, or any recording device that might experience abrupt power disconnection during recording. A specialized, user-friendly SaaS could offer an intuitive solution to repair and recover such partially recorded video files (e.g., MOV, MP4 containers that lack proper headers/footers). While tools like ffmpeg exist, they require technical expertise. An online service where users can upload a corrupted file, get a preview of recoverable content, and then pay to download the repaired version would address a clear pain point for non-technical users looking to save valuable footage or memories. The value proposition is high for a single, critical file.
