Hey Product Hunt, Air co-founder here 👋 I’m really excited to share our two newest updates with you today. Our team has been hard at work building a menu bar app for Mac and a game-changing feature called Asset Versions. Together, these two features enable a workflow we think creatives and their teams will love: - Set up a watch folder via the desktop app and sync your files ***one way*** up to Air (no need to worry about accidental deletions by a team member that show up on your computer) - Get feedback from your teammates or stakeholders - Make edits to your files and push the updates to Air (you have ultimate control over what gets uploaded and when) - The full version history of your files is now available for commenting and sharing, with the latest version at the top of the stack - Clear out your local storage if you want to! Your hard work is safe on Air and won’t be deleted Read more about Air for Mac here (https://air.inc/blog/air-lift) and asset versions here (https://air.inc/blog/versions). The app is available for download starting TODAY from Air’s site (https://air.inc/air-lift). We hope you’ll give it a try and let us know if you have any questions or feedback below! Shane

@shegde Congratulations on the launch! Can you please update the thumbnail GIF? It seems like the first frame of the GIF is a plain dark blue color slide and that's why the logo is not visible. This happens because the GIFs do not auto-play. They play only on hovering :)

@shegde @adityavsc thanks for pointing this out (and for the congrats)! Went ahead and swapped out the thumbnail GIF for a different version of the logo. Hope it's dancing across the screen on your end! If not, please let us know.
Shane Hegde
@adityavsc appreciate the catch!
Aditya
@shegde @carmimedoff1 Thank you for the prompt action but the GIF still has a plain first slide. I will recommend adding the logo to the first slide so that when the visitors see the static thumbnail, they are able to see the logo and the animation can start on hovering :)
Carmi Medoff
@adityavsc thanks for the rec. Swapped it out until the AM :)

This really simplifies the design and asset management workflow. Being able to just do my work and then have it sync to Air automatically is a game changer! There is no no reason to continue using Google Drive or Dropbox to share files with the team. Great work ?makers !! I cannot wait to see what comes next from this amazing team!
Tyler Strand
@kavehnowroozi glad to hear it! more soon :)

Content creators rejoice! Getting large files and rounds of revisions uploaded just got a whole lot easier.

So excited to see these features added! Opens up a whole new world of creativity - being able to push changes directly from my local files and create versions!! 🤝
Caroline Congdon
@john_henry_isemann_iii It's a dynamic duo for sure!!
Rolando Murillo
Hi all! I'm one of the ?makers behind Air Lift and I am incredibly grateful for the support!! The launch of this new tool is the result of months of iteration alongside my team (Mari, Kate, Isaac). Can't wait to see what you all think and I'm here to answer any questions!
Trevor Hyman
They've only gone and done it! Absolutely brilliant display of meeting the right user needs in the right way!
Tyler Pavlas
The creative process is inherently iterative and all of this back and forth should minimize friction with a lot of automation. So happy to see that Air has made it possible for users to work directly from their desktop or favorite tools while edits are automatically tracked and synced to the platform.
Tyler Strand
@tyler_pavlas1 yesssss! less friction, more creation
Danica Bunnett
This is a game changer. This will absolutely speed up my company's creative process even more. Another great feature by Air!
Caroline Congdon
@danica_bunnett Thanks so much! We're excited to help speed things up however we can :)
Steven Greitzer
This is exactly the update I needed! Air was working great for me already, but this new update solved the last vestige of disorganized desktop clutter I’ve long known I’d need to clean up. More and more I’ve consolidated all my work into air! Many companies boast user-led design, but few prioritize both the obvious and nuanced improvements needed by the users, especially on such a consistent basis. Air keeps getting better!
Tyler Strand
@steven_greitzer1 I'm framing this comment glad you're liking Air and very excited to hear what you think of the latest additions
Mica Medoff
Versions! So ideal for all the back and forth on press packets, marketing campaigns, and social media assets.
Chris Nguyen
@mmedoff Completely agree! As a marketer, Air makes my collaboration with creative and design so much smoother!
Adam Markowitz

@adam_markowitz we build the product, you provide the compliance! a dream team
Rafael T
I was a part of a large consumer products organization that deals with managing thousands of digital assets all the time. Using Air would have saved creative teams countless hours. Great product and team!
Tyler Pavlas
@rafael_t Thanks Rafael! We can still help that large consumer products org if you still think their creative team could use some fresh Air. :) Either way, thank you so much for the kind words & support!
Tyler Strand
@rafael_t love to hear that!!
Aaron Bernstein
