Dropboxなどからの移行続々、ビジュアルツールの管理に特化したクラウド「Air」/Figmaに続け!次世代クリエイティブツール(2)

(前回からのつづき)Airはニューヨーク州に拠点を置く、クリエイティブオペレーションツールを運営するスタートアップだ。Forbesによると、スタンフォード大学コンピュータサイエンス学部で出会ったShane Hegde氏とTyler Strand氏が2017年に創業した。Shane Hegde氏は卒業後VCで働いた後、テレビネットワークを提供するRevolt Mediaで最高デジタル責任者を務めた経験がある。また、一方のTyler Strand氏はライブストリーミングを提供するhostess.fmを立ち上げ、SFX Entertainmentに売却した。そんな経験豊富な2人が舵を取る。. 画像アセットから何かを探すとき、漠然と探していても何もイメージせずに探すことはめったにない。これまでのDropbox やGoogleドライブのようなクラウドストレージではイメージしたものを検索する方法はファイル名を覚えるか、ディレクトリを覚えるしかなかったため、チームが多くなればなるほど埋もれるアセットが増えていくのが課題としてあった。実際、PLUSE 2.0によると、Airの顧客の95%がDropbox、Box、Googleドライブから移行している。
