Ship campaigns faster, for every client.
Spot work runs on hard air dates and tighter confidentiality rules than most productions. CloudStudio keeps each brand in its own silo, puts editors on real Mac workstations the day they are added, and gets finished masters to traffic at full line speed.
Every brand wants it yesterday, and on brand.
The air date does not move. Brand reviews come in rounds, each one flagging a new set of changes, and somewhere in the middle the agency is cutting spots for three other clients at the same time. Files split across shared drives and personal Dropboxes, versions get muddled, and one unreleased spot in the wrong inbox is a crisis. The problem is not a lack of tools; it is too many tools with no walls between them. CloudStudio puts every campaign behind a hard access boundary, keeps approvals tied to timecode, and moves finished deliverables out fast enough that the air date is never the bottleneck.
Built for tight air dates and clean approvals.
Brand-team review and sign-off
Brand and account teams open a secure browser link, leave timecoded notes, and never touch a signup form. You set the password, expiry, and whether downloading is on.
Scale editors per campaign
Add a freelancer for the crunch week and pull the seat when the spot wraps. Each editor gets a real Mac with the campaign storage already mounted on first sign-in.
Storage per brand
Each client lives in a separate project with its own storage pool and access list. An editor on one account cannot browse another brand's folder even by accident.
Deliver to broadcast and social
The native macOS and Windows transfer agent pushes masters and cutdowns to traffic at the full speed of your connection. The file moves; the deadline holds.
Find every version
Search across every brand, campaign, and version in one library. When the client asks for the fifteen-second cutdown from the spring flight, it is one search away rather than buried in someone's drive.
Protect unreleased spots
Per-person access scoping, expiring review links, and visible forensic watermarks tied to each viewer. If a frame leaks, you can trace it back to the source.
From shoot to air date, without the scramble.
The project gets created the day the job is awarded: its own storage, its own access list, invisible to every other brand in the account. Shoot media comes in through the native transfer agent and the editors are cutting that afternoon. Staff and any freelancers brought on for the crunch all work from the same source media on their own workstations, no syncing drives between them. Review rounds go out as watermarked browser links; the brand team leaves notes at timecode rather than in a reply-all thread. The thirty, the fifteen, and the social verticals live as named versions in one library. When the spot is approved, masters move to the traffic system at line speed. When the campaign closes, the freelancers lose access, the media moves to Archive, and the next brief opens in a clean project.
Built for in-house spot work.
Agencies cutting spots in-house against air dates, managing several competing brands under the same roof, scaling editors per campaign, and fielding security questionnaires from brand procurement teams.
Questions, answered.
How do we keep competing brands isolated?
Each brand or campaign sits in its own project with dedicated storage and a separate access list. An editor assigned to one brand cannot see another brand's files, and removing someone when they roll off is a single action that covers everything.
Can brand and account teams review without creating accounts?
Yes. Cuts go out as password-protected browser links with a set expiry. Brand and account reviewers open the link, watch the cut, and leave timecoded notes without creating an account. You decide per link whether downloading is permitted.
How is an unreleased spot protected before launch?
Access is scoped per person and per campaign. Review links expire and can block downloads. Sensitive cuts can carry a visible forensic watermark tied to each specific viewer, so if a frame surfaces somewhere it should not, the source is traceable. Managed security is available when a brand questionnaire asks for more formal controls.
Can we scale editors up for a big campaign and back down after?
Yes. Each editor gets a real Mac provisioned for them personally. Adding seats for a crunch takes a few minutes, and each new editor has the campaign storage mounted when they sign in for the first time. Remove the seats at delivery and you stop billing for them.
Does CloudStudio handle broadcast traffic and QC?
No, and we think it matters to say so plainly. CloudStudio is where the spot gets cut, approved, and stored. Finished masters and cutdowns move out at the full speed of your connection. Clearance, traffic, and QC belong in the systems built for those jobs; CloudStudio feeds them the file rather than pretending to replace them.
