Pricing model

Free Tier, Paid

You can use Starchive to store, organize, and manage large collections of digital media files such as videos, music, photos, and documents. The system securely archives original master files while generating shareable, watermarked previews for external collaborators. You can attach rich metadata, verify asset provenance with cryptographic timestamping, and track licensing terms and royalty splits directly from your catalog. It allows creators, estates, and cultural institutions to centralize valuable intellectual property, control access permissions, and distribute content safely across multiple channels without risking asset leaks.
