Inside Awaire · Technology

Awaire is the product. Two engines sit behind it.

Awaire is being built to turn a drive of rushes and a brief into prepared media, useful moments, evidence and a reviewable first assembly suggestion. Forge Engine and Anvil Engine explain the machinery behind the workbench. This end-to-end flow is in controlled validation.

Awaire proposes. Editors review. Source media stays unchanged.

§ 01 · Two-engine model

Awaire joins preparation and editorial intelligence.

Awaire is the customer-facing product surface. Behind that workbench, Forge Engine handles media preparation and Anvil Engine handles editorial intelligence.

Anvil Engine
Awaire capability

Local AI editorial intelligence (in development)

Anvil Engine is being built to help Awaire review prepared rushes locally against the brief, references and storyboards, and return useful moments, structure, an assembly suggestion and evidence. Anvil's analysis is in controlled validation.

INPUTS
· Prepared rushes
· Brief
· References · storyboards
OUTPUTS
· Useful moments
· Evidence
· First assembly suggestion
GUARANTEES

Media preparation engine

Forge Engine prepares media locally: review media and proxies today, with recursive watch folders and Resolve-enabled RAW-to-proxy preparation in development. Source media stays unchanged; every run keeps a local job record.

OUTPUTS
· Prepared media
· Proxies / review files
· Local jobs · logs · reports
GUARANTEES
✓Source media unchanged
✓Repeatable preparation settings

How customers see them
Anvil Engine and Forge Engine are included capabilities of Awaire. There is no separate Forge purchase, Anvil licence, or Forge/Anvil dashboard.
Forge / Anvil boundary
Forge runs today as Awaire's current standalone local prep app/tool. The live Forge to Anvil handoff is product direction and controlled-validation integration work, not a claim that today's app already drives the entire handoff automatically.
§ 02 · Local-first by construction

Built to keep your media on your machine.

Awaire is built to run where the media already is. Reading, sampling, and analysis are designed to run on the workstation — the rushes are not uploaded as part of the workflow.

Reads local media
Awaire reads files from local paths on the workstation. Network storage works; cloud upload of rushes is not required.
Source media unchanged
Originals are read-only. Prepared outputs are written alongside the originals, never on top of them.
On-device analysis
On-device analysis is in development. The design reads sampled visual evidence on the workstation in ordered batches; rushes are not sent off-device.
Findings held for review
Useful moments and first assembly suggestions wait for the editor. Nothing is committed automatically.
Plain-English local record
Steps are designed to write a local record of what was prepared, read, and proposed. Reviewable end to end.
Network policy
Awaire is designed so that source media, evidence records, and telemetry are not sent off the workstation; the licence check is the only required outbound call. We document and validate network behaviour with each onboarded project.

Awaire brings local intelligence to the rushes without sending the rushes to the cloud.

§ 03 · Validation

Read the security note before the working session.

We send a controlled-validation pack covering network policy, data handling, and the scope of the working session. Onboarding happens in small batches.
