By technical editor Matt Allard:
Frame.io is a sharing platform for video that allows you to upload all your source media, work in progress, and assets into private workspaces where you can invite your team and clients to collaborate. It aims to replace the tedious tasks of using programs like Dropbox for file sharing, Vimeo for video review, and Email for communication. Frame.io aims to combine all these processes into one easy to use application.
One thing to be aware of is it isn’t a distribution platform. It is not designed to replace platforms like YouTube and Vimeo. Obviously to work this way requires good internet connectivity.
This from Frame.io:
In July of 2014 we announced Frame.io to the world and with that, a promise of a more connected and collaborative way to create films, videos, and all sorts of multi-media.
But our journey started long before that. Three years ago my co-founder John and I decided the status quo just wasn’t going to cut it anymore so we set out to engineer the future. Along our path we’ve turned down work opportunities, relationships, and several acquisition offers by major tech companies because we’re committed to building a great business that will last.
Today, I am pleased to announced we are ready to deliver on that promise. Did it take six months longer than expected? Yes. But we are now launching in 25 days which means by March 31st, all 14,000 of you will get an invite. Holy shit!
Those of you who scored platinum status during signup will get an early invite next week because #platinum, but we have a special reward in store for all of our early supporters.
As always, please email me directly with any comments, suggestions, love or hate. If you’re in NYC or visiting NYC we encourage you to pop in and say hello. We’re friendly.
