How it works
From a box of old tapes to videos you can watch on any phone, computer, or TV. Most orders are done within 2–3 weeks of your tapes arriving.

1
Build your order
Count your tapes and enter them on the order page. An estimate is fine, since we count every tape when your box arrives and refund any you paid for but didn't send.
Your videos are always sent to your email and your account for free. If you'd also like them on a flash drive or DVD, add it for an extra charge. Bulk deals are applied automatically, and you pay on Square's secure checkout page.

Send us your tapes
Ship your tapes yourself with any carrier, or add a prepaid shipping label to your order. The label is created as soon as your payment goes through and emailed to you with a tracking number.
- Use a sturdy box and pad the tapes so they can't slide around
- Put the tapes in a sealed plastic bag in case of rain
- Include a note with your name and email

We digitize each tape by hand
We email you when your box arrives. A technician checks every tape for damage, then plays it on professionally maintained equipment and captures it in real time.
We adjust tracking, color, and brightness as each tape plays, then review every file before it's delivered. If a tape needs repair, we email you a quote first.

Watch, share, and get your tapes back
Your videos are emailed to you and added to your account for free, as MP4 files you can download. They play on phones, computers, and smart TVs, and you can upload them to Google Photos, iCloud, or YouTube.
Your original tapes, plus a flash drive or DVD if you ordered one, are shipped back to you with tracking.
Two ways to send your tapes
You choose when you place your order. Either way, your originals come back to you with tracking.
