Post-production

Stock providers & uploads

Once a batch is release-ready, its finished media can be uploaded to stock platforms. Post-production tracks that final step too — which platforms, and how each upload is going.

Providers and submission targets

A stock provider is a platform you publish to — Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, Pond5, and so on — each marked for photo, video, or both. A submission target is one batch paired with one provider: the record of "these photos, going to Adobe Stock".

When a batch reaches release-ready, ShootHive creates a target for every provider that matches its media kind — so the upload work is laid out for you, not assembled by hand.

Tracking upload status

Each target moves through its own status — pending, uploading, uploaded, failed, retry later, or skipped — so a batch can be published to some platforms while still outstanding on others. Every target is tracked independently.

Sharing the work

Each target has its own uploader, and a target can be assigned to any team member, where it appears in their personal queue. So uploading is shared across the team rather than done by one person, with each uploader recording their own count and status.

Common questions

How are uploads to different platforms tracked?

Independently. Each batch-to-provider target has its own status, so a batch can be uploaded to some platforms while still pending on others.

Does ShootHive create the upload list automatically?

Yes. When a batch is release-ready, it creates a target for every connected provider that matches its media kind.

Can uploading be shared across the team?

Yes. Each target has its own uploader and can be assigned to any member, appearing in their personal queue.
