TeraAirlift

Deliver massive post-production packages without blind upload risk

Built for deadline nights when dailies, masters, EXR sequences, ProRes files, MXF packages, and project archives need the right recipient with visibility — on a plan that starts at 10 TB.

When the delivery window is tonight, generic tools fail

Post teams routinely move multi-terabyte packages that break email and browser uploaders. TeraAirlift is sized for that reality — plans start at 10 TB, with overage if you go beyond.

Files too large for conventional sharing

ProRes exports, MXF masters, EXR plate sequences, and zipped project packages exceed email limits and choke browser uploaders — especially when overnight masters and archives stack up across a delivery week.

Deadline pressure with zero visibility

A stalled multi-terabyte upload at 6 PM can miss a global review. You need throughput, ETA, and retry — not a share link that silently hangs.

Wrong recipient or expired link

Missed approval windows because the wrong person got access, or the link expired before the producer opened it. Ops needs controlled delivery, not guesswork.

Corrupted deliverables are expensive

A bad copy or interrupted transfer means redelivery, lost session time, and client trust. Integrity verification isn't optional when masters are on the line.

No operational queue for crunch weeks

During delivery nights you need to queue multiple outbound packages, monitor progress across jobs, and retain upload history — not juggle one-off uploads in a browser tab.

A desktop transfer console built for finishing teams

TeraAirlift is a professional desktop application — not a consumer file-sharing widget. Queue files and folders, configure recipients and link policy, monitor parallel uploads with speed and ETA, retry failures, and deliver with integrity verification.

  • Drag-and-drop files and folders into a transfer queue with live metrics
  • Parallel, chunked uploads tuned for fast studio connections
  • Recipient lists, link expiration, and recipient-only access enforced by API
  • Progress tracking, speed, ETA, and per-job detail for every transfer
  • Retry-friendly queue operations when a job needs attention
  • Upload history and error logging for audit and troubleshooting
  • SHA-256 integrity pipeline from upload through client download

How TeraAirlift works for post-production

From sign-in to verified delivery — a workflow designed for ops machines during delivery nights.

  1. 1

    Sign in with your organization

    Authenticate with Microsoft Entra ID. Your session gates transfer operations — built for studio and enterprise identity, not anonymous uploads.

  2. 2

    Queue files and folders

    Add dailies, masters, stems, or full project trees via file picker or drag-and-drop. Folders are scanned recursively — no zipping required unless you want to.

  3. 3

    Set recipients and delivery policy

    Enter client, producer, and freelancer emails. Configure link expiration (24–72 hours typical) and whether only listed recipients can download.

  4. 4

    Upload with full visibility

    Start parallel uploads directly to cloud storage. Monitor active, queued, and completed jobs with throughput, ETA, and per-transfer detail in the queue console.

  5. 5

    Notify when download is ready

    Recipients are notified when their download is available. Delivery status is tracked in the queue — pending, notified, or needs attention.

  6. 6

    Download with integrity verification

    Recipients download via the dashboard with progress tracking. SHA-256 verification confirms the file arrived uncorrupted — fails closed on mismatch.

Built for real post-production workflows

Concrete scenarios where TeraAirlift replaces ad-hoc file sharing.

Outbound dailies to producers and remote reviewers

Queue review copies after editorial or color with recipient-locked links that expire after the review window.

Masters and IMF-adjacent packages to distributors

Move large deliverables with integrity verification and upload history for your records.

Freelancer round-trip of plates and project assets

Send EXR sequences, AAF references, and media bundles to freelancers — and receive finished work back through the same controlled path.

Client review copies with expiring access

Deliver ProRes or H.264 review files with time-boxed links so access doesn't linger after the session.

Ops queue during crunch weeks

Line up multiple deliveries overnight — monitor the queue from one machine instead of babysitting browser uploads.

Camera and production equipment in a bright studio setting

Deadline nights start with packages that actually arrive intact.

Security and reliability you can stand behind

Factual capabilities — no unverified compliance badges. Built for teams that need controlled delivery and proof files arrived intact.

Recipient-controlled delivery

Set who can download, when links expire, and whether access is recipient-only — enforced server-side, not on the honor system.

SHA-256 integrity verification

Files are hashed before upload, validated on completion, and verified again on download — so corrupted deliverables are caught before they reach your client.

Short-lived storage access

Presigned URLs and SAS tokens expire quickly. Blob credentials never persist on the desktop client.

Enterprise identity ready

Sign in with Microsoft Entra ID for organization-backed access. Built for B2B teams, not casual link sharing.

Operational visibility

Queue metrics, per-transfer detail, delivery status, error logging, and diagnostics export — the visibility generic file-sharing tools don't provide.

Direct data plane transfers

Upload and download traffic goes directly to cloud storage — not proxied through the API — for higher throughput and predictable performance.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a replacement for Dropbox, SharePoint, or Frame.io?
TeraAirlift is a desktop transfer operations console for deadline-driven handoffs — queue, monitor, retry, control recipient access, and verify integrity. Collaboration and review tools remain useful for day-to-day work; TeraAirlift focuses on the large delivery window those tools struggle with. Plans start at 10 TB.
Can recipients download without installing software?
Recipients can receive controlled access for download without needing to adopt your full operations console. Access windows and recipient controls are designed for external stakeholders who only need the package, not your toolchain.
How do expiring links work?
You define an access window for each delivery so review packages and client handoffs do not remain open indefinitely. When the window ends, access expires — useful for freelance, vendor, and client collaboration.
What does integrity verification mean?
Integrity verification helps confirm the package that left your side matches what the recipient received — reducing costly rework from corrupted or incomplete transfers on multi-terabyte deliverables.
What does “plans start at 10 TB” mean?
10 TB is the starting allotment — the plan floor. You can move packages of any size. If you use less than 10 TB, you’re still on the 10 TB plan; volume above your allotment is metered as overage. It’s sized for teams that have outgrown casual file sharing, not a per-file minimum.
Can I use this for very large folders?
Yes. TeraAirlift is positioned for massive professional datasets — media packages, point clouds, and BIM deliverables — with queue visibility instead of blind browser uploads. Package size isn’t the floor; the 10 TB starting plan is.
What if my connection drops?
Retry-friendly transfer operations are part of the design. Unreliable field or suite networks should not force you to restart a multi-hour handoff from zero without visibility.
How is pricing handled?
Plans start at 10 TB, with overage above your allotment. Details are confirmed during a demo so pricing reflects your volume, vertical, and delivery pattern.
Is this available for Windows and Mac?
TeraAirlift is a desktop console oriented to professional workstations. Platform details are confirmed during the demo for your team's environment.
