Data Recovery

When the files matter more than the machine.

What we can help with

Data recovery is the one service where the first ten minutes matter most. Continuing to use a failing drive, or running recovery software over it, can turn a recoverable situation into a permanent loss. Fason AI's first job is to tell you what to stop doing.

After that, we work out what class of problem you have: accidental deletion, a corrupted file system, a logically failing drive, or a physically damaged one. Each has a very different chance of success and a very different cost, and you get an honest assessment of both before committing credits.

  • Accidentally deleted files or folders
  • Formatted the wrong drive
  • External drive not recognised
  • Clicking or grinding hard drive
  • Corrupted USB stick or memory card
  • Photos lost after a phone or camera issue
  • Drive asking to be formatted
  • Files lost after a failed Windows update
  • Recovering data from a dead laptop

Where AI stops and a person starts

Fason AI handles the parts of the job that are really about information: narrowing down symptoms, ruling out easy causes, and telling you in plain language what is most likely happening before anyone touches your machine.

A technician steps in the moment the job needs hands, tools, or judgement in the physical world — opening a device, swapping a component, or working through an issue that has more than one plausible cause.
