Driveless
Private beta · Bengaluru · Mumbai · Hyderabad · Chennai

Every file. Every Mac. Zero disk.

Driveless turns your whole library into a normal drive on every Mac. Files show their real size, use no disk, and open in Premiere in under a second — because only the frames you watch ever travel.

Works natively in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, After Effects, Nuke and Blender. No plug-ins. No relinking.

Test your line

Will it stream on your internet?

Ten seconds. We check your connection and tell you plainly what plays live, what needs the office cache, and whether you'll notice a difference from a local drive. Honest answer, no sign-up.

Camera-native 4K needs about 100 Mbps. ProRes 422 HQ needs 1,155 Mbps — no home line does that, which is why studios use the cache or proxies. We'd rather tell you now than after you've signed up.

What it costs you today

You already pay for this. Just not to us.

Drives, couriers, and editors paid to sit and wait for a copy. Move the sliders to your studio and see what the problem costs every month next to what Driveless would.

Today's figure counts ₹1,950 of drives, ₹280 of couriers and re-shoots, and about three hours a week of waiting per editor at ₹300 an hour. Driveless is the Team plan: ₹1,799 per editor with 1 TB each, ₹799 per extra terabyte, GST included.

Who it's for

One engine. Two very different days.

Studios and agencies

The whole library on every Mac, and one cache for the office.

  • Studio cache: one Mac in the office serves the whole team at LAN speed. Software, not a box.
  • Plug camera cards into the cache Mac — the team edits while it uploads overnight.
  • Roles, project permissions, review links with time-coded notes for clients.
  • Rupee billing, GST invoice, India-region storage on request.
₹1,799 per editor a month · 1 TB each, pooled
Creators and freelance editors

A drive that is never full, on the laptop you already have.

  • 1 TB that takes 0 KB of your MacBook. Every old project still one click away.
  • Take a project offline for a flight. It syncs back when you land.
  • Send a 4 GB file as a link that plays — no upload wait, no expiry surprise.
  • Pay in rupees with UPI. Cancel any month.

Questions studio owners ask first

Before you ask.

Is my footage safe?
Every file is split into 4 MB pieces, encrypted before it leaves your Mac, and stored as three copies. Each workspace has its own keys. Nothing is ever deleted immediately — the trash keeps 30 days and every save is a version. If Driveless disappeared tomorrow, your files are still plain files in a storage bucket you can read without us.
What happens when the internet drops?
Anything you've already played is on your Mac and keeps working. Anything pinned keeps working. In an office with the studio cache, the whole team keeps cutting from the cache. Uploads and new fetches queue and resume when the line is back. You won't lose work.
Which apps work?
All of them. Driveless appears as a normal drive at /Volumes/Driveless, so anything that opens a file works — Premiere, Resolve, Final Cut, After Effects, Nuke, Blender, Photoshop, the Finder. No plug-ins, and your existing projects keep their file paths, so timelines don't need relinking.
Which Macs?
Any Apple-silicon Mac on macOS 14 or later. It's a normal, notarised app with no kernel extension, so a macOS update can't break it. Windows is not supported and isn't planned for this year — we'd rather do one platform properly.
Do I need the studio cache?
Not for camera-native footage on a 300 Mbps line — that streams live. You want it if you cut ProRes 422 HQ masters, or if six people open the same shoot on Monday morning and you'd rather the cloud was asked once. It's software you install on any Mac in the office; it's included in Team and Studio plans; we don't sell hardware.
How is it billed?
In rupees, with a GST invoice, by UPI, card or bank transfer. Monthly or annual — annual gets two months free. Creators pay per month and can cancel any month. Studios pay per editor or per terabyte; there are no per-feature upsells.
