Digitization orders (Basic and Advanced) include one delivery format: 1 year cloud streaming or a disc set, your choice in the dashboard. Standalone AI Enhancement uploads have a different rule (see below). All physical orders include the return of your original tapes.
For Basic and Advanced. Watch through our app on phone, tablet, smart TV or web. Source MP4 files are downloadable during your entire active subscription, plus 90 days after cancellation or expiration. After the first free year, renewal is $25/year. We don’t offer USB flash storage on purpose. See the FAQ for why.
Standard-definition DVDs with menus you designed in the dashboard. Available with Basic and Advanced packages. Not available for AI Enhancement output: DVD can’t hold a FullHD stream. If you ordered discs without cloud, source MP4 files are downloadable for 30 days after your order completes. Save local copies before that window closes.
High-capacity BluRay discs. Optional alternative to DVD for Basic and Advanced packages. If you later add AI Enhancement to a Digitization order from your dashboard, the enhanced output ships on BluRay even if you originally picked DVD: DVD can’t hold FullHD.
If you upload your own video files for AI Enhancement (no Digitization order), there’s no cloud subscription and no disc. We deliver an MP4 download with a 30-day window starting from order completion. Grab a local copy before the window closes.
Upgrade after your first order. Mark specific clips for Advanced re-scan or AI enhancement. We bill only the minutes you choose.
Your captures live in the dashboard after delivery. From there, mark portions for higher tiers. No re-shipping, no minimums.
$0.05 per minute of source video. Archival-quality re-scan with Advanced deinterlacing and Full-Frame TBC, applied only to the portions you mark.
$0.25 per minute, first 3 minutes free. Upscale to 1080p with denoise and detail enhancement. Advanced gives the AI the cleanest possible source, so the result is dramatically better than enhancing a Basic capture. The free 3 minutes are for sampling: mark a clip you care about, see the result, then decide whether to mark more.
$0.30 per minute combined ($0.05 re-scan + $0.25 AI). The first 3 minutes are fully free on this path too: both the re-scan and the AI on the sample cost you nothing. Use this when you ordered Basic but want the full archival + AI treatment on specific clips, without paying for the whole tape.
Bulk orders, damaged tapes and return shipping, handled outside the standard packages.
The online order tops out at 10 tapes to keep handling predictable. For larger archives, contact us→. We can quote a better per-tape rate and stagger the work.
Mold, broken shells, sticky-shed syndrome and other damage are handled separately. We inspect, send a free quote, and only proceed with your written approval. Billed hourly based on the work required.
Calculated at checkout based on weight, package size and destination. Returns ship via USPS with tracking. Portland metro pickups include free return drop-off.
Oregon has no statewide sales tax. Customers outside Oregon may see tax added at checkout depending on local rules.

Bulk archives, fragile or moldy tapes, mixed formats, or restoration jobs the calculator doesn’t cover. Describe what you have and we’ll quote you directly.
