Hedge Announces OffShoot Ecosystem
The company has released OffShoot, OffShoot Solo and OffShoot Pro.
Hedge has released Offshoot, OffShoot Solo and OffShoot Pro.
OffShoot ($149), the application formally known as Hedge, features an updated UI and new integrations. It targets a broad range of creatives who require accelerated data transfers and use verification to ensure each copy is secure. The organization functionality can dial out further issues down the line by helping define folder structure, renaming and integrating with other applications within a user’s workflows.
OffShoot Solo ($49) was developed for filmmakers, photographers and creators working on projects that favor mobile devices, and it takes advantage of the latest updates in iPadOS 17 for increased speeds.
OffShoot Pro ($249) has been designed to support specialized tools and advanced workflows. It introduces an Amazon S3 integration, so users can link their offload workflow directly to the cloud. Alongside support for AWS S3 storage, the connection to cloud can be utilized with other cloud-storage vendors that support the S3 architecture.
OffShoot and OffShoot Pro both offer integration with Iconik, a hybrid cloud asset-management solution from Backlight. With OffShoot, users can copy cards and send media straight to Iconik’s Storage Gateway to catalog, archive and share with their team.
OffShoot Pro includes additional metadata options to further deepen the integration with Iconik. OffShoot and OffShoot Pro also offer opportunities to upload files to Frame.io via a dedicated watch folder.
Floating licenses offer the convenience of installing OffShoot on any number of machines while granting users the freedom to deactivate licenses from machines not currently in use. If users require concurrent usage on multiple machines, they can easily add extra activations as needed. Having perpetual OffShoot licenses gives users the flexibility to add activations whenever necessary.
Existing customers with active support for the current Hedge application can obtain OffShoot as a complimentary upgrade.
A 10-day free trail of OffShoot is available here.
