What Bizzi Cloud is

Bizzi Cloud is cloud storage and a creative workflow platform in one. It is built for large media—video, photo, production assets—and for how real teams review, edit, and ship work.

Cloud home for media

Footage, stills, project files, and delivery packages live in organized workspaces—not scattered drives.

Editing-aware

Access feels like a creative drive: open what you need, work with lightweight previews first, finish in full quality.

Client-ready

Proof in galleries, hand off with transfers—review and delivery are first-class, not an afterthought.

If you have only used generic cloud tools, you might expect uploads, sharing links, and little else. Bizzi starts from a different question: how do photographers, editors, and production teams actually move from ingest to final handoff? That is why workspaces, previews, galleries, and transfers sit on the same platform.

You can think of Bizzi as the place your active projects live in the cloud—where your team finds the right version, clients leave clear feedback, and nothing important is stuck on a single laptop.

Learn how this differs from generic storage in How Bizzi is different and walk the setup in Getting started.

How Bizzi is different from generic cloud storage

Generic cloud tools optimize for documents and light sharing. Bizzi optimizes for creative media—big files, repeated playback, proofing, and team coordination.

Comparison of generic cloud storage and Bizzi Cloud for creative workflows
TopicTypical cloud storageBizzi Cloud
Primary jobStore and link filesStore, review, edit-access, and deliver creative work
OrganizationFolders you manage yourselfWorkspaces tuned for brands, clients, and projects
EditingDownload first, often manualLightweight previews, stream cache, mount-style access
ClientsGeneric download linksGalleries for proofing + transfers for delivery

Generic tools are fine for PDFs and light assets. Creative workflows need repeated access to huge files, clear review loops, and predictable handoff. Bizzi connects those dots instead of leaving you to glue ten tools together.

What Bizzi is not

A quick clarity check—so expectations match how the platform is designed.

Not just a generic file dump—organization and creative workflows matter.
Not only a simple sync folder—Bizzi is built for media access and review, not only mirroring files.
Not a one-time transfer tool—you can live in Bizzi across projects and teams.
Not only a client gallery—delivery, collaboration, and editing workflows are part of the same system.

If you are comparing tools, use the sections on galleries, transfers, and mount-style access to see how pieces fit.

Getting started

A simple path from empty workspace to delivered work—no jargon, just the order of operations most teams follow.

  1. 1Create your workspace (personal or team).
  2. 2Upload or import media into clear folder structure.
  3. 3Organize by client, project, or brand—consistency beats perfection.
  4. 4Preview and review files—thumbnails and lightweight playback first.
  5. 5Share work: internal collaborators in the workspace; clients via galleries or transfers.
  6. 6Edit using Bizzi-friendly workflows—mount-style access and stream cache when you need speed.
  7. 7Deliver finals with transfers; archive or expand storage as you grow.

You do not need every feature on day one. Most creators start with structure, uploads, and one client review flow—then layer editing performance and team habits as projects grow.

Start with your first workspace

How to use Bizzi, step by step

Short guides for the main areas of the platform. Read the card for the section you are using, follow the steps, then move on.

Choose workspaceUpload or organizeReview in galleriesDeliver with transfers

Home and workspaces

Follow these in order.

  1. 1Open HomeStart from the dashboard Home to see your current workspace.
  2. 2Pick the right workspaceUse the workspace switcher before you upload or share anything.
  3. 3Name by client or projectKeep names plain so teammates know where work belongs.
  4. 4Return here oftenUse Home as your reset point when you are not sure where to go.

Files and uploads

Follow these in order.

  1. 1Open FilesUse Files for your main storage library and project folders.
  2. 2Make a folder firstCreate the client, shoot, or project folder before uploading.
  3. 3Drag files inDrop media into the target folder and wait for upload progress to finish.
  4. 4Check the resultOpen the folder, preview files, and rename anything unclear right away.

Galleries

Follow these in order.

  1. 1Open GalleriesCreate or open a gallery when clients need to review photos or videos.
  2. 2Add mediaUpload into the gallery or choose Add From Files to link existing media.
  3. 3Set the client viewChoose cover, highlights, branding, downloads, favorites, and access settings.
  4. 4Send the linkShare the gallery after the assets finish processing and the client view looks right.

Transfers

Follow these in order.

  1. 1Open TransfersUse Transfers when the client needs downloadable delivery files.
  2. 2Choose the filesDrag new files in or select existing files for an instant transfer.
  3. 3Set accessAdd client details, password, expiration, invoice gate, or download permission.
  4. 4Copy and trackCopy the link, preview it, then watch opens and downloads from the list.

Shared

Open Shared when someone sends work to you. Review access, open the item, then save or download only what you need.

Deleted files

Use Deleted files when something was removed by mistake. Restore what you still need before permanent cleanup.

Settings

Update account, billing, storage, power-ups, and workspace preferences before a busy delivery week.

Desktop app

Use the desktop app when you want drive-style access, stream cache, and faster editing workflows on your machine.

If you ever feel lost, start with the left navigation: Home, Galleries, Shared, Transfers, Deleted files, and Settings. Each area answers one question: where is my work, who needs to see it, and what needs to be delivered?

For the fastest path, set the workspace first, keep files organized in the right folder, then choose whether the next step is review in a gallery or delivery through a transfer.

Who Bizzi is for

The same platform supports different creative roles—here is how each typically benefits.

Solo creators

One workspace for every project: ingest, organize, proof, and deliver without juggling five services.

Freelance editors

Fast access to active projects, lightweight previews for cutting, and clean delivery when the job wraps.

Photographers

Galleries for selects and proofing, branding for client trust, and transfers when files need to leave the cloud.

Videographers

Large footage, repeatable playback, and workflows that respect how NLEs actually pull media.

Production teams

Shared workspaces, coordinated folders, and review flows that keep producers and post aligned.

Creative agencies

Multi-client organization, team roles, and polished client experiences without exposing your whole drive.

Studios

Scale storage, standardize delivery, and keep long-term libraries searchable and accessible.

Workspaces

A workspace is your creative home in Bizzi—where files, galleries, and delivery belong to a clear context: you, your team, or your client work.

Media placeholder
Placeholder: workspace switcher and folder overview.

Personal workspaces suit individual creators. Team-style workspaces help agencies and studios separate internal work from client-facing delivery while keeping everyone in the same system.

Most teams organize by brand → project → phase or client → job → deliverables. However you slice it, consistency matters more than any “perfect” taxonomy.

Storage and file organization

Creative libraries only stay useful when structure matches how people search—not how a drive defaulted on day one.

Do

  • Separate raw, working, and delivery folders.
  • Align folder names with how your NLE or photo app thinks about projects.
  • Keep client-specific assets under that client.

Avoid

  • One giant “misc” bucket for everything.
  • Copying the same files into three places “just in case.”
  • Cryptic abbreviations that new editors cannot decode.

Bizzi holds footage, photos, audio, graphics, and documents together—so think in terms of production phases and handoff points, not only file types.

Uploads and imports

Bring media in with drag-and-drop uploads and cloud-side imports. The goal is simple: get to a trusted master library fast.

Coming soon: camera card convenience

A premium workflow many creators want: insert a card, import with clear naming, and let the cloud become the system of record—without slow manual babysitting. Watch this space as Bizzi expands ingest options.

Whether you are moving a day’s shoot or migrating an old drive, aim for predictable folder targets and consistent naming—your future self (and your editor) will thank you.

Pair uploads with organization habits and the workflow examples at the end of this page.

Mount-style access vs storing locally

Two valid ways to work: keep media primarily in the cloud and open on demand, or keep full copies on disk for offline and maximum responsiveness.

Mount-style access

Feels like a virtual creative drive.

  • Files live in the cloud; you open what you need when you need it.
  • Great for large libraries you cannot fit on one machine.
  • Pairs well with stream cache for active work.

Store locally (sync-style)

Full copies on your machine.

  • Best when offline work is non-negotiable.
  • Helpful on location with unreliable internet.
  • Uses disk space—plan folders and retention deliberately.

If you have ever wished your cloud felt like plugging in a fast SSD, that is the idea behind mount-style access—without pretending that internet conditions do not exist. When travel or offline dominates, local storage wins; when collaboration and breadth dominate, cloud-first wins.

Next: how Bizzi keeps active sessions snappy in Stream cache & speed.

Find the best setup for your workflow

Stream cache and speed

Stream cache is a local speed layer: recently used footage stays ready so playback and scrubbing feel responsive during real editing sessions.

Think in three sizes

  • Smaller cache — light laptop, short jobs, mostly photos or short clips.
  • Medium cache — typical editing week, mixed footage, repeated timeline access.
  • Larger cache — heavy video, long sessions, lots of back-and-forth in the same project.
Media placeholder
Placeholder: simple diagram of cloud library → local cache → your editor.

Editors notice cache most during active sessions: you loop the same selects, revise the same cuts, and scrub the same moments. Stream cache is there to make that repetition feel smooth.

Editing speed and lightweight previews

You can work faster when your timeline starts with responsive previews, then moves to full-quality files for finishing—without confusing your collaborators with duplicate assets everywhere.

Plain-language pipeline

  1. Preview and rough cut with lightweight, responsive media.
  2. Lock creative decisions before you lean on full-resolution files.
  3. Finish and export with full quality when the edit is stable.

This is the “fast feels first, quality finishes last” mindset that modern post often needs—especially when editors are remote or storage is massive.

Bizzi Editor

Bizzi’s editor experience is built around creative speed: getting to the right media, staying in flow, and avoiding unnecessary downloads.

Media placeholder
Placeholder: Bizzi Editor interface preview.

Expect media access, smart previews, and editing convenience to work together—so you spend time on story and picture, not on babysitting file paths. Pair this with mount-style access and stream cache when projects get heavy.

Galleries and proofing

Clients review photos and videos in a focused gallery experience—favorites, selects, and clear feedback—separate from simply downloading finals.

Create galleryAdd mediaStyle client viewCollect favoritesDeliver finals
  1. Step 1

    Create or open a gallery

    Go to Galleries, choose the client or project gallery, and confirm whether it is photo, video, or mixed.

  2. Step 2

    Add media

    Upload directly into the gallery, or click Add From Files to use media already in your storage.

  3. Step 3

    Know where gallery media lives

    Gallery uploads are stored under the Gallery Media drive in that gallery's folder. Add From Files keeps the original in Storage and adds a gallery reference.

  4. Step 4

    Choose what clients see

    Set the cover, highlights, branding, access mode, favorites, comments, and download settings before sharing.

  5. Step 5

    Review feedback

    Clients favorite photos, submit selects, or leave review notes. Use that feedback to finalize the right assets.

  6. Step 6

    Send final files separately

    Use a transfer when the client is ready to download masters or packaged deliverables.

Gallery Media

The organized drive where gallery-uploaded assets live.

Add From Files

Links existing Storage files into the gallery without re-uploading.

Highlights

A curated client tab for the clips or images you want to feature.

Proofing is the decision phase. Delivery is the logistics phase. Bizzi keeps both clear so clients can review comfortably before anyone sends the final download package.

A simple rule helps: if the client needs to choose, comment, or approve, use a gallery. If the client is ready to download the final package, use a transfer.

Explore client proofing

Instant transfers and delivery

Transfers package large deliveries for clients: structured links, optional protections, and a better experience than random ad-hoc downloads.

Transfer tab map

All: Every transfer in the current workspace.

Active: Links clients can still open.

Expired: Past deliveries you may need to review or clean up.

Files: The file browser for transfer package folders and transfer-ready assets.

  1. Step 1

    Start in Transfers

    Open Transfers from the sidebar. Use All, Active, and Expired to find existing links.

  2. Step 2

    Add transfer files

    Create a transfer, then drop files into Files to transfer or select existing uploaded files for an instant transfer.

  3. Step 3

    Set client access

    Add the client name, optional email, password or expiration, permission, and invoice gate if needed.

  4. Step 4

    Share the link

    After the transfer is created, copy the client link or open View transfer to preview it first.

  5. Step 5

    Track results

    Use opens, downloads, Analytics, and Edit to follow up or adjust an active delivery.

  6. Step 6

    Use Files when needed

    Switch to the Files subview to browse transfer package folders and the files behind your deliveries.

Files to transferClient settingsCopy linkClient downloadsAnalytics

If you have ever lost a client in a confusing download flow, you already know why structured delivery matters as much as storage size.

Transfers are best after a gallery approval, after an edit is final, or anytime the main job is simply: send these files clearly and track what happened.

See delivery workflows

Teams and collaboration

Invite collaborators, share workspaces, and coordinate roles so agencies and studios can run production without chaos.

Shared assets, review workflows, and workspace boundaries help teams stay aligned—especially when producers, editors, and clients each need different visibility.

Position Bizzi as the shared creative system of record—not a pile of personal drives with conflicting copies. Start from workspaces, then tighten habits in performance modes.

Performance modes and workflow recommendations

Pick a playbook that matches how and where you work—then adjust cache, local storage, and collaboration habits.

Fast remote editing

Emphasize stream cache + mount-style access; keep project folders tight.

Travel and offline prep

Store key projects locally; resync when you are back on solid internet.

Agency collaboration

Shared workspaces, clear client folders, galleries for review.

Large client deliveries

Transfers for packages; galleries for approvals beforehand.

Photographer proofing

Galleries first; transfers for finals and add-on purchases.

Production houses

Scale storage deliberately; standardize naming and archive policy.

These are starting points, not rules—mix and match as your roster of clients and projects changes.

Pricing logic and storage growth

Bizzi scales with you: add storage as libraries grow, and treat upgrades as part of production planning—not an emergency.

No heavy pricing table here—focus on planning headroom for active projects and archive strategy for completed work.

Creative businesses rarely shrink their libraries year over year. The goal is predictable growth: align workspace structure and delivery habits early so storage decisions feel boring instead of frantic.

FAQ

Straight answers to questions creators ask before they commit to a new workflow.

Can I edit directly from Bizzi?+

Yes—that is the idea. Bizzi is built so your media can feel like it lives on a fast creative drive. You work from previews and lightweight versions for speed, then move to full-quality files when you are ready to finish. The desktop experience is designed around editing workflows, not just downloading everything first.

Do I need to download everything before I edit?+

No. You can open and work with what you need, when you need it. Stream cache keeps recently used clips feeling responsive, and lightweight previews help you stay fast on the timeline before you pull full-resolution media for final export.

What is stream cache?+

Think of it as a local speed layer. Bizzi can keep recently used footage ready on your machine so playback, scrubbing, and active sessions feel smoother. You choose how much space to dedicate—small, medium, or larger—based on your projects and disk space.

What is the difference between mount-style access and storing files locally?+

Mount-style access feels like a virtual creative drive: files stay in the cloud, and you open them on demand. Storing locally (native sync style) keeps full copies on disk for offline work or maximum responsiveness. Many teams mix both—cloud access for breadth, local storage for travel or heavy sessions.

Can clients review photos and videos in Bizzi?+

Yes. Galleries are built for proofing—clients can browse, favorite selects, and leave clear feedback. That is different from simply sending a raw download link: review happens in a structured, client-friendly experience.

Can teams work together in Bizzi?+

Yes. Workspaces can be personal or shared. Teams invite members, share assets, and coordinate review and delivery—ideal for agencies, studios, and brands that need one home for production media.

Can I use Bizzi while traveling?+

Yes. Choose how much media you keep locally for offline prep, lean on stream cache for active work, and use performance recommendations for travel and remote editing. The platform is built for creators who move between set, studio, and home.

How does Bizzi help with large media libraries?+

Organization starts with workspaces, folders, and project structure. You are not meant to treat Bizzi as an undifferentiated pile of files—think brands, clients, and projects. Previews and lightweight workflows help you navigate huge libraries without pulling every file down at once.

How does delivery work?+

Transfers package files for clients with a polished handoff—links, optional passwords, and a clear download experience. Pair that with galleries for review, and you have both sides of the job: feedback and final delivery.

What makes Bizzi better than generic cloud storage?+

Generic cloud is built for documents and light sharing. Bizzi is built for creative media—editing workflows, proofing, team coordination, and delivery at production scale. The difference is in how you access, review, and ship work—not just where files sit.
