ARKIVE Media is a self-hosted home for picture edits, color passes, audio mixes, masters and more. Editors, colorists, mixers and agency teams share one link, leave frame-accurate notes, sign off on versions, and send feedback straight back to the timeline — without the work ever touching someone else's cloud.

What it does
Notes you can point at
Frame-accurate comments on the playhead, plus arrows, boxes and sketches drawn right on the picture — each drawing holds until the next cut.
Versions & approvals
Every revision stacks under one link. Clients approve or request changes per version, and you get pinged the moment they do.
Links that behave
Expiring, password-protected links for a single file or a whole project folder — with one-click “download all” for delivery.
Every pro format
ProRes, DNx, MXF, WAV and BWF straight out of the edit bay or the studio. Smooth HD and low-bandwidth proxies are built automatically; originals stay untouched.
Back onto the timeline
Export notes as Resolve EDLs, Avid marker lists, Pro Tools markers or CSV — feedback lands in the edit, the grade or the mix, not in your inbox.
Internal or client-facing
Run agency rounds, producer passes and final client approvals from the same place. Resumable uploads up to 50 GB, straight from desktop or phone.

The ARK ethos
Keep your most sensitive material private.
Self-hosted — not someone else’s cloud. ARKIVE Media runs on hardware we own, under our roof. No third-party storage, no data mining, no training on your work, no subscriptions holding your masters hostage. Unreleased material stays exactly where it belongs — with the people making it.
