Resolution Enhancement for Legal & eDiscovery

What resolution enhancement does for legal & ediscovery footage, when it helps, and how BetterVideo's API applies it to the real capture.

🔒 Footage deleted on your schedule — with a certificate to prove it

What legal & ediscovery work actually needs
  • Enhancement can't invent detail — anything that fabricates content is worthless as evidence.
  • Privileged and case footage has to stay confidential and never feed someone's AI model.
  • Retention windows matter: material often must be deleted once a matter closes.

Where resolution enhancement helps

Super-resolution recovers detail from degraded, low-res evidence clips. Because the model reconstructs plausible detail, the enhanced output is best treated as an aid for review alongside the original, not a replacement — an honest constraint we'd rather state than paper over.

How BetterVideo does it

BetterVideo applies resolution enhancement through one REST call — Real-ESRGAN super-resolution recovers detail from a low-res source — and for legal & ediscovery, enhances real footage without inventing detail, never trains on it, and deletes it on your schedule with a certificate to prove it.
