Automatically Ingest Media Into LucidLink Connect

Trusted by industry leaders
Helping You Get the Most Out of Lucidlink
The Challenge
Quickly getting raw assets from field teams and external vendors into LucidLink Filespaces often creates licensing bottlenecks, manual overhead, and editing delays.
- Per-seat licensing friction: Giving external freelancers, field crews, or clients access to LucidLink requires buying additional seats and managing user credentials.
- Manual ingest bottlenecks: Without automated ingest pipelines, someone has to manually download incoming assets and copy them to LucidLink before editors can start working.
- Complex setup & file caps: Forcing remote teams to download software, configure custom clients, or deal with strict size limits slows down production timelines.
The MASV Solution
The fastest, most flexible way to automate media ingestion directly into LucidLink Filespaces using Amazon S3 storage.
- MASV provides a secure, frictionless gateway for anyone to upload giant file packages into LucidLink.
- Zero account setup for senders and automated metadata collection.
- Fast and reliable transfers means your team gets assets onto their timeline in record time.
