Extend production beyond the edge by enabling collaboration anywhere with NEXIS | EDGE, the new proxy workflow solution from Avid
Avid NEXIS | EDGE is a new remote proxy media workflow that extends the power of Avid’s proven, collaborative production tools. Users get the same media access, workflow, and user experience as if they were editing at a brick & mortar facility. And with the Avid NEXIS | EDGE web client, team members can find, organize, storyboard, edit, and review content at the facility, at home, or on location, extending the limits of what’s possible.
- Work from Anywhere – Edit remotely leveraging the known and trusted resources of your facility and get the same experience as editing in-house. Change location without changing your workflow—even when disconnected from the Internet. And browse, search, organize, log, share, play, edit, and review content using just a web browser, expanding collaboration to your extended team.
- Work with Anyone – Expand your distributed workforce worldwide to bring in the talent you want, no matter where they live or how they prefer to work, with collaborative remote video editing workflows. As projects ramp up or down, you can scale your team quickly and easily as needed, without constraint or physical boundaries.

Avid NEXIS | EDGE works with Media Composer | Enterprise, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Avid NEXIS storage, so you can stay focused and in your creative groove. Share bins and projects and collaborate with the comfort and familiarity you’re accustomed to—regardless of location—to complete projects faster together.
- Uncomplicate your Workflow – With its cutting-edge zero-relink workflow, you can quickly switch from working on proxy to high-res media—or vice-versa—with a simple selection. Move from editing to finishing and review with less stress. And go from working at the facility to working at home without the headaches.
