Volta Studio
Volta Studio for teams is how an AI production company runs its work in one place. Paid seats feed a single pooled token wallet and 100 GB of storage each, reviewers and viewers join free, roles and per-member sections decide who does what, every project can carry a budget, work is approved or sent back in the Review room, a desk shows the pipeline and the spend, real actors approve their likeness on the record, and every night the studio is backed up to a locked second location for 30 days.
Per seat, between a minimum and a maximum team size set on the plan. Every paid seat adds its monthly tokens to one pool the whole studio spends from, and plan tokens left at the end of a month roll over for one more. Each seat also brings 100 GB of storage to a pool the whole studio shares; more is added in 1 TB blocks, billed with the seats. Top-ups go into the same pool. The seat price, the team size and the tokens per seat are on the Pricing page, read from the table the checkout uses.
The people who spend: the owner, admins, producers and creators. Reviewers and viewers are free, up to twice as many as the paid seats: reviewers approve work or send it back in the Review room, and viewers read. Only the owner manages billing, owners and admins manage members, producers start projects, and creators generate on the projects they are assigned. Nobody can give anyone a role above their own.
Beyond the role, each member works in the parts of a project they need: the Story, the Slate and the Cut, each set to edit or off. A writer can be kept to the script and an editor to the cut, nobody generates pictures or sound without working in the Slate or the Cut, and the files of each part follow the same rule.
Yes. An owner or admin sets a monthly token limit for any member, or pauses them outright, and each project can carry a budget, in the studio's own currency, that warns at 85 and 90 per cent and stops at 100, with an overrun allowance the owner decides. A generation that would pass a limit is refused before it runs, with a sentence saying how much is left and who can raise it. Studio work spends the pool and personal work spends the member's own wallet, and neither ever pays for the other.
The Review room holds a project's script, shots, cut, languages, voices and promos, each in its own section. Reviewers approve a take or send it back with notes, an episode is signed off when everything in it is approved, and a client outside the studio can be sent work to review and sees only what they are sent.
Owners, admins and producers land on a desk that runs production like a pipeline: where every episode is and who holds each piece, spend over time against the budget, what is due or overdue, and the team's activity. Creators land on their own work, reviewers in Review.
A studio project is open to every member by role, with no inviting people one project at a time. Producers and above edit every studio project; creators, reviewers and viewers see the ones they are assigned. People outside the studio join it as members, free as reviewers or viewers, and are assigned to the projects they work on.
Every generation is recorded against its project, its episode, its shot and the page it came from, so the cost of an episode is a sum in the ledger, not an estimate. Each price is shown before the generation runs, and a failed generation is refunded to whoever paid for it, studio or member.
When a studio works with a real actor's face or voice, the actor approves exactly which uses are allowed and for how long, on a page of their own with no account needed. Generation checks the approval before it runs, a withdrawn approval stops new work, and the approval travels with the work as a signed certificate anyone can check and a consent mark written into exported video.
A studio can require two-factor sign-in for every member, every opening of an original file is logged, and studios are kept apart on every request. Every night the studio's files, documents and settings are copied to a locked backup in a second European location and kept for 30 days, and Volta can restore the studio, or one project, from any of those nights without touching anyone else. The business signs the Volta Studio Agreement, with GDPR data processing terms and its data stored in the EU.
A studio generating at volume can be moved onto the volume lane, a lower rate on generation that is never above the standard price. It is granted by the Volta team, not switched on from a settings page, for studios spending more than $2,000 a month on generation or committing to a year.
For companies that need a contract: a negotiated rate on generation instead of the standard prices, invoices paid on terms instead of a card, an export of the audit log that records every change to roles, limits, seats and the wallet, and a custom number of seats. Single sign-on with a company identity provider is available on request. Enterprise starts with a conversation.
