The customer challenge

Rights owners want to commercialise valuable imagery, but distributing original files to multiple production sites increases the risk of misuse. Many owners therefore hold work back rather than expose source assets to a wide production network.

The Cloudstore approach

Cloudstore keeps original files within secure cloud vaults. Print data is streamed to production destinations, which receive only what they are authorised to produce, governed by rights rules, and every job is recorded. Royalty models and production reporting give owners visibility of how their content is being used.
