Big trade shows like NAB have a way of overwhelming the senses. Big booths, bold claims, bright lights, nonstop conversations. I usually come home with a hoarse voice and a need for a nap.
This year is no different, but I’m also coming home with something else: a renewed sense of energy and conviction that we’re on the right path at EditShare.
It wasn’t just about what we showed at the booth. What struck me most was what I heard. Over and over, from both partners and customers, the feedback was simple and consistent:
“You guys really listened.”
That feedback landed deeply with me. Because over the past year, we’ve made a deliberate shift here at EditShare. Not just in our product roadmap, but in how we gather and respond to input from the people who matter most.
Here are a few examples of what that looks like in practice – and what stood out to me most from this year’s show.
FLOW AI: Built From Real Workflows – Not Buzzwords
AI dominated the show floor this year. Some of it was exciting. A lot of it was still pretty vague.
At EditShare, we’ve done our best to stay grounded and pragmatic. Our approach to FLOW AI starts by solving simple, painful problems like searching archives, tagging footage, finding things like logos and extracting metadata that makes your content easier to work with.
What we showed at NAB is just the beginning of our journey into AI. We decided to forgo flashy solutions with voice commands and lifelike avatars for ones that simply make real workflows better: a producer watching their media library come to life because it was finally searchable.
“This makes our archive worth something again,” a booth visitor told me. That made my day.
We’ve focused on speed too. FLOW AI can now process video at 10% of real time, as in, a one-hour file is analyzed in six minutes. That puts teams closer to playback, closer to publishing, and closer to the moment. And its being powered by fast GPU engines
We’ve paired that speed with predictable pricing: a flat-rate annual license, so teams can budget without worrying about usage-based fees or confusing credit systems that are difficult to track.
AI is the hot topic, but most AI today doesn’t live up to the hype. Some tools miss faces, misidentify scenes, or fall apart without us pre-training on your content. That’s why we’re building FLOW AI to understand your media and the way your team talks about it, so it’s not just another feature, it’s a tool you can trust.
Automation: The Quiet Win That Saves Hours
AI may be the star right now in the world of video, but we believe automation is still the hidden hero.
We kept hearing from teams at NAB: there’s still too much time spent getting footage off drives, transcoded, and organized for editing. Hours each week (sometimes more) go into tasks like these tasks that shouldn’t require near this much manual effort.
Even a few simple automations (a great ~5 minute demo of some of our most popular automations can be found here) can give you most or all of that time back. During busy delivery periods, we’ve seen teams reclaim entire days out of their week, simply by automating the manual stuff and getting to the actual editing much faster.
That’s why we’ve made automation in FLOW easier to trigger, easier to configure, and easier to try. Now a creative can simply right click and trigger an Automation workflow.
MediaSilo: Simpler, Clearer, and Easier Than Ever To Get Started
MediaSilo has always had a strong foundation. But we suspected the value was buried behind one-size-fits-most tiering and sub-optimal positioning that we just couldn’t find the time to revisit.
But before making any product changes, we went deep with our happiest customers—teams who use MediaSilo every day and couldn’t imagine switching. We asked them about three things:
Feedback had to be intuitive and flexible whether in the app or via email/slack.
Simple pricing and strong integrations were what sealed the deal.
Armed with that clarity, we kept investing. Not only in positioning, but also in the product itself. Here are a few recent updates:
Bulk Download for Review Links – Download large batches of content, with full folder structure, even without a login. Faster, more reliable, no account required.
HQ Proxy Playback – Choose from multiple resolutions, from 720p to 8K, for faster streaming or higher-quality previews.
DaVinci Resolve Panel – Browse, import, and share media directly from inside Resolve. Feedback flows directly back into the edit.
More to come later this year. We’re making MediaSilo easier to adopt, easier to use, and better integrated into how post teams already work – without all the confusing gotcha pricing or “only with enterprise” feature-gating that other collaboration tools force you into.
When Times Get Tough, Make the Value Obvious
Despite our optimism, the video industry is still under pressure. The Devoncroft team shared some data at NAB that suggested a 10 point margin decrease in the largest content creators over the past 10 years. That kind of pressure isn’t reserved for the big guys. And in that kind of environment, every purchase is scrutinized. It isn’t enough anymore to sell something valuable. That value has to be obvious. In an environment like this one, it has to be unmissable.
In the never-ending work of pulling ourselves out of technical specs and trying to make that value clearer, I’ve been thinking a lot about the contrast between two hypothetical production teams: One still stuck doing things the old way. And one actually taking advantage of everything we’ve built.
How differently would those teams operate? What would it feel like to be part of each?
Really different, it turns out. Here’s a simple example.
The Old Way
New Way with EditShare
1. Getting Organized
Wait a day (or more) to download, organize, and prep files by hand
Trigger a FLOW automation to ingest, sort, QC, rename, and get files ready to edit automatically
2. Finding What You Need
Manually label clips, dig through folders, or rely on memory
FLOW AI makes media searchable right away—no tagging, no guessing, and trained on what you care about
3. Working Remotely
Ship drives overnight, sync footage manually, or bounce between tools to hack together a remote workflow
Generate proxies, collaborate in real time, and share in-progress work—all in one environment, from wherever you’re working
This is what “doing more with less” actually looks like.
With less waste in the system, you can bid on more projects, deliver edits faster, and keep your team from burning out or worse, looking around.
You’re not waiting a full day to download, transcode, and organize raw footage—you’re starting to select the same morning the shoot wraps.
You’re not tying up your lead editor answering emails about version 3_1_FINAL_FINAL.mov—you’re sending a MediaSilo link that lets the client leave timecoded feedback right in the player.
You’re not wondering if your assistant labeled that clip “INT_BTS_camB” or “Interview2_Greg”—FLOW AI tagged it with “Greg,” “backstage,” and “cinema camera B” the moment it hit storage.
You’re not setting alarms to check if files uploaded overnight you get a Slack ping when the automation finishes, and everything’s where it needs to be.
In a tighter market, these aren’t nice-to-haves. They’re what let your team take on more work without working more hours.
Why do I bring this up? Because after a few laps around the show floor, you start to notice something: if you walk fast enough past all the booths and screens, a lot of what’s being exhibited starts to look the same. Slick, dark-mode-everywhere UI. Big claims. Buzzword bingo.
That’s why I’ve been laser-focused leading up to this week on making the value in what we do obvious. I don’t want the life-improving magic in our products to get lost in the noise.
And because based on what we heard from customers and partners at NAB people who’ve seen both the before and after I’m more confident than ever that we’re on the right track.
A Moment That Stuck With Me
A quick shoutout: In the days before the show kicked off, I watched Adam Lewiston, our Global Pre-Sales Technical Manager, lead our booth’s technology setup and our final demo prep. He didn’t just manage our pre-sales logistics – he ran a bootcamp. Our teams drilled, recorded and re-recorded their demos until they were tight and consistent. That kind of leadership made a real difference. I know our customers and prospects noticed. I sure did. Great job, Adam.
Thanks for following along. Whether you’re recovering from NAB too, or just getting going with your own Q2, I hope you have a great week.

This year marked our 20th year exhibiting at IBC, a milestone that reflects two decades of bringing innovation to the M&E industry—many of which have since become integral to mainstream workflows. 2024 was no different, as we continue to push the boundaries of technology and shape the future of production. It also allowed us to introduce our latest product innovations – the all new EFS Ultimate Series and EFS Field Unit.
Here’s a look back at some exciting highlights from this year’s show.
AI Still Dominates the Conversation, but Remote Workflows Are Redefining Collaboration
As more companies adopt generative AI, it continues to dominate discussions at industry events. While the full impact of AI and machine learning in the creative process is still emerging, many see these tools as ways to explore new ideas, techniques, and styles. Some view AI as a radical shift in creative technology, while others see it as an efficient way to speed up their work. As one keynote speaker noted, “AI may generate an image, but it’s people who are guiding the tools.”
At the same time, the rise of remote workflows is reshaping how media is produced. Cloud-based tools like MediaSilo and technology like our own Swiftlink are allowing teams to work together across distances, transforming post-production, editing, and even live broadcasts into remote-friendly processes. This shift enables greater flexibility, faster response times, and lower costs, creating a more agile industry.
Unveiling our latest portfolio of storage nodes sparked lively conversations at the booth this year. Designed to streamline workflows and reduce the cost of shared collaborative storage, the Ultimate Series offers 2U, 3U, and 4U form factors, along with an exciting new addition: a portable field unit that delivers unparalleled flexibility for on-set and remote production.
The Ultimate Field portable unit, built on cutting-edge NVMe architecture, provides exceptional bandwidth for on-location work. Featuring integrated SwiftSync technology, it ensures the secure, high-speed transfer of media, allowing teams to instantly send dailies to global facilities for faster collaboration. Whether for boutique post-production houses or national broadcasters, the Ultimate Series enables users to work faster, more efficiently, and from anywhere.
Security was a big discussion at the show and protecting sensitive or valuable content is critical. EditShare is fully aligned with TPN (Trusted Partner Network) security protocols, ensuring compliance with industry-leading standards. Our solutions provide robust real time auditing , secure access controls, and reliable data protection to safeguard media assets throughout the production and post-production process.
Pushing the Boundaries of What’s Possible
We wanted to showcase what is possible and set up an entire film restoration and archive workflow on the booth. We demoed an NVMe node connected to a gorgeous Lasergraphics Film Scanner, showcasing its ability to capture into an EFS mediaspace concurrently in stunning 5K DPX 4K 16-bit, 4K DPX 10-bit all at 30fps and concurrently playing back within Resolve at 8K 16-bit DPX— pushing the boundaries of high-resolution film restoration and archiving. This was showing what is possible. We still had so much more bandwidth left and this was all being produced on a single 2U Node.
“From the beginning, our mission has been to equip media professionals with practical, powerful, and cost-effective tools,” said Tara Montford, Co-Founder and EVP of Sales at EditShare. “The innovations we’re launching at IBC give users more power, speed, and capacity without sacrificing security—all at a price point that’s truly groundbreaking.
“With these advances, we’re delivering a revolution in content and workflow management that empowers the creative industry to do what they do best: tell great stories,” Montford added.
