Is your internet fast enough to edit 4K from the cloud?
Enter your footage and your connection speed. See how long an upload takes and whether your codec streams live.
Cloud editing depends on two numbers: how fast you upload your footage, and whether you can play it back smoothly.
This tool estimates both from your codec and your connection, so you know what to stream and what to proxy.

Frequently asked questions
How fast an upload do I need for cloud editing?+
Enough to upload a shoot in reasonable time. At 40 Mbps, 480 GB takes around 27 hours, so a faster line or overnight uploads help.
Can I stream 4K from the cloud without proxies?+
If your download speed comfortably exceeds the codec bitrate, yes. Heavy codecs need a proxy for smooth playback.
What is a good streaming margin?+
Aim for a download speed at least 1.5 times the codec bitrate, so playback stays smooth during seeks and scrubbing.
