Advanced security.
All files are encrypted on the drives as well as prior to remotely backing up.
Quickly Audition.

Project Workspaces.
Working on lots of projects with lots of clients? Create separate workspaces for each, and keep all access protected and isolated.
Seamless Sharing.
Gone are the days of uploading to a cloud provider, copying a link, and then texting it over. Seamlessly share to anyone by entering a simple email address or phone number.
Instant Feedback.
Get (or give) feedback at any timestamp on any audio file. The Haven display will show new comments immediately, where you can review and respond via the Haven app.
File Versioning.
Tonic's software keeps track of file versions, so commenting and updates can be made on unique versions of a single file.
Optional Offsite Backups.
Achieve a true 3-2-1 backup strategy by subscribing to Tonic Audio's optional backup service or use your own cloud service. File system snapshots restore at any point in the past.
Cloud Sync.
Still need to work with existing cloud services? It's easy to set a local Haven folder to automatically sync in both directions to a remote cloud folder.

Our Manifesto

The way we create sonically today is broken.

It's broken because many of us work more closely with remote collaborators than ever before, but we lack a seamless yet secure way to share.

It's broken because our projects are larger and more complex than ever before, but we often don't have enough local storage in our studios to safely contain years' worth of projects, without archiving.

It's broken because our most treasured current projects, often not even yet completed, are being used to train AI models by cloud providers against our will.

How do we, as a creative community of audio professionals, move forward to simultaneously reclaim our files and bring our work closer to our physical locations, while also making it easier and more secure for our collaborators and clients to access remotely? How do we achieve this without being subjected to the constant onslaught of subscription-based services?

We do it by taking these first principles, and rethinking what the studio of tomorrow really needs.
