What DiJiFi does

DiJiFi is a privately held digital conversion services company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Brooklyn, New York. The company converts analog media — photographs, negatives, slides, 8mm/Super 8/16mm/35mm film, VHS and Betamax tapes, vinyl records, audio cassettes, reel-to-reel tapes, MiniDiscs, paper documents, microfilm, microfiche, and large-format engineering drawings — into digital formats for both individual consumers and institutional clients. Its technology stack centers on specialized hardware: Nikon scanners capable of up to 4000 DPI optical resolution for 35mm negatives, professional film and video transfer machines, and uncompressed 48kHz WAV audio capture. Microfilm and microfiche digitization leverages proprietary pixel-shifting technology integrated with ABBYY FineReader OCR for searchable document output. Multi-tier service levels (Raw, Direct, Complete) and resolution options (Standard, Full) address varying quality and budget requirements.

DiJiFi serves a horizontal mix of customers including families preserving personal media, museums and historical societies, government agencies, religious and cultural archives, broadcasters, auction houses, sports organizations, and creative professionals. Distribution is primarily direct: walk-in consultations at two Brooklyn locations, phone and email sales with free project estimates, local pickup and delivery across Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens, and national/international shipping via a downloadable order form. The company markets through SEO-optimized service pages, educational blog content, email newsletter sign-ups offering discounts, and review platforms (Trustpilot, Yelp). Delivery options span physical media (disc, hard drive, flash drive, M-Disk) and cloud storage through a partnership with Air for high-volume (1TB+) customers.

The revenue model is professional services-based with project-quote pricing, unit pricing for audio and photo tiers, a 30% deposit requirement on orders of $100 or more, and a 3% credit card convenience fee. Complementary offerings include computer repair and data recovery, secure document shredding, and Picture Keeper hardware resale with warranty support. DiJiFi is HIPAA compliant, CompTIA certified, and BBB accredited, enabling it to handle regulated medical, legal, and government records. The business operates without disclosed external funding, parent organization, or institutional investors, and remains privately held as of the most recent available data.
