CONSOLIDATE YOUR TOOLS
INTELLIGENT METADATA
Track what actually matters to you and your workflow. Customize automated metadata fields for each drive and asset type, and seamlessly display this information in a collaborative spreadsheet view designed specifically for you and your team.
System metadata extraction
Shade automatically extracts system metadata for 100+ file formats.
SENDING LARGE FILES? NO PROBLEM
Shade transforms the cloud into a NAS, enabling your distributed team to collaborate as if they were connected to a single, ultra-responsive SSD that can be accessed from anywhere.
Dump your hard drives
Shade “tricks” your computer into thinking the cloud is a hard drive, giving you local file access without extra devices.
Step 1
Mount the drives containing the assets you need in the Shade desktop app.
⌘
O
Step 2
Press shortcut ⌘O on Mac or Ctrl O on Windows to open the assets locally on your computer.
Step 3
Use your files as if Shade were a local hard drive. Drag directly into your NLE or other software.
Step 4 (Optional)
Learn to juggle. Call your mom. Adopt a lizard. Might as well do something with all that time you’re getting back.
