Are there calculators out there that can fill in the blanks on underpopulated options charts?

Weve all seen it, pulled up an option with low volume and open interest, and even though the contract has data going back 6 months theres only 4 sales on the chart.

Are there any calculators out there that use something like a black-scholes equation, these data points to estimate IV at the time of sale, and then a regular price chart to create a theoretical chart for the contract?

With all the other financial tools out there I'd be surprised if there weren't, even if its behind a paywall. Anyone aware of something like this?
