OpenDrives, a privately owned company headquartered in the United States, was founded in 2011 and employs approximately 70 individuals. It reported $7.0M in revenue as of 2024. The company specializes in content supply chain solutions, offering purpose-built shared media storage for high-resolution video and imaging workflows designed to accelerate applications such as Adobe Premiere, Foundry's Nuke, and Blackmagic Davinci Resolve.
On June 16, OpenDrives stated that media and entertainment (M&E) companies are reassessing their technology decisions due to industry headwinds, increasingly favoring hybrid flexibility over purely cloud-based or proprietary infrastructure. Previously, on May 29, the company noted that sports broadcasters are moving away from pure cloud solutions towards hybrid infrastructure for sports media. Earlier in May, OpenDrives highlighted that while data storage challenges related to capacity, data movement, and disaster protection are persistent, the solutions must continue to evolve. This broader discussion followed an April 19 Executive Viewpoint interview where OpenDrives CEO Trevor Morgan outlined the company's offerings, including OpenDrives Edge and its Astraeus data service platform, in anticipation of the 2026 NAB Show. On April 13, OpenDrives launched OpenDrives Edge, a hybrid cloud-edge performance accelerator designed to provide distributed teams with local-speed access to video and rich media data, addressing latency, high costs, and complexity often associated with traditional hybrid or cloud-only workflows.
OpenDrives's customers primarily consist of consumer electronics and media and TV services companies. Examples of OpenDrives's customers include Spotify, Apple and NBCUniversal. OpenDrives has commercial and technical partners like Ortana Media Group and MASV.
