Problem
Large YouTube playlists slowly lose context.
Deleted and private videos leave a blank playlist row. After enough time, users often cannot remember what the missing song was or which version belonged there.
Deleted uploadsVideos disappear while the playlist position remains damaged.
Private videosThe owner hides the upload and the original title is no longer visible.
Unavailable videosRegional or licensing restrictions turn saved tracks into dead entries.
Manual searchingUsers waste time guessing the artist, version, and right upload.
Large playlist driftOld archives degrade over months without a clean audit trail.
Workflow
Detect, identify, suggest, repair, undo.
The product is built around the exact repair decision, not generic playlist backup.

Alerts and backup
Know when a playlist changes, and keep enough context to act on it.
TrackRescue sends real email alerts for damaged entries, keeps changed scan versions, and turns an older CSV backup into a recovery queue instead of overwriting a playlist.
