Spools is cloud storage made for working with large files. It streams only the parts you work with — while everything shows up as regular files in Finder.
Open footage without downloading the whole Drive first. Spools downloads the parts your app reads. Playback speed depends on your footage, app, and internet connection.
Uploads are multipart and resumable — they survive sleep, dropped wifi, and moved cafés. 64 GB camera originals are normal files here.
Download earlier versions from the last 7, 30, or 90 days, depending on your plan.
Let your AI app find and read files on Spools. MCP reads current files, not older versions. Connect your AI app →
What counts toward storage?
The total size of your current files.
What happens to deleted files?
Restore files from Trash within 30 days, unless you delete them forever or empty Trash.
Is there a file size limit?
Footage-sized: multi-gigabyte files are normal. Multipart and resumable.
Where do files live?
Encrypted at rest in object storage, scoped to your organization.
Team access?
Invite everyone at no extra cost. The whole team works off the same files and versions.
How do I get the Mac app?
Get Spools for Mac → You need macOS 26.4 or newer and an account with Spools access. Check the download page for availability. You can connect one Drive at a time. Installation guide →
Windows?
We are developing the Windows app. We expect to launch it before the end of the year.
Do versions cost storage?
No — only current files count. History is on us.
How much history do I get?
Free and Starter include 7 days of history, Pro includes 30 days, and Scale includes 90 days. We keep the versions needed to get your file back as it was during that time, even if you first uploaded it months ago. Your current files do not expire.
What happens to history when I change plans?
Your current plan sets how far back you can go. When a shorter-history plan takes effect, older history may be permanently deleted. Upgrading cannot bring back history that has already been deleted. Delete forever and empty trash still remove files and their history immediately.
