NAB Show 2026: LucidLink Brings the Most Complete File Streaming Platform for Media and Entertainment

LucidLink will showcase how its platform brings content, people and workflows closer together than ever before, with newly available capabilities across object storage access, edge performance, mobile workflows and partner delivery in North Hall, booth N2940.“At LucidLink, we’re obsessed with a frictionless creative lifecycle,” said Peter Thompson, CEO, LucidLink. “That obsession is what drives our platform: helping teams move from ingest to finishing and delivery with less waiting, less manual work and more creative momentum – no matter where the content lives or where the team is working.”

One platform for every M&E use case
LucidLink will demonstrate how five products come together as a single platform for modern M&E teams: connecting content wherever it lives (cloud, object storage, edge), making it instantly usable in creative tools and enabling collaboration across contributors, vendors and locations without breaking the workflow.

• Lucidlink Developer Platform: LucidLink announced the LucidLink Developer Platform – the platform for the next era of intelligent workflows, where work no longer waits for data to move. Instead, workflows run where the data already lives. The LucidLink Developer Platform introduces a new programmatic layer that enables technical teams to automate operations, integrate LucidLink into existing systems and build workflows in code. It brings together APIs available today for administration, workflow automation, linked data operations and LucidLink Connect integrations, alongside an SDK in beta that expands LucidLink into backend, media, automation and AI-oriented use cases. Together, these tools make it easier for applications, pipelines, agents and people to participate in the same workflows with no manual setup or data-movement friction
• LucidLink Connect: LucidLink Connect: The big news at NAB. LucidLink Connect is a major expansion of how media teams work with content in the cloud. It enables teams to access and stream external content directly inside LucidLink, whether it lives in object storage, cloud repositories, review platforms, productivity suites, or other workflow systems, including S3-compatible storage, Frame.io, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive and SharePoint.

Now also available on the AWS Marketplace, LucidLink Connect is even easier for organizations to deploy and integrate into existing cloud workflows.

Instead of moving files, duplicating media, or forcing teams to jump between disconnected systems, LucidLink Connect brings distributed content into one unified workspace with the same familiar LucidLink experience creative teams already trust. For broadcasters, post-production teams and creative operations, that means faster access to content, fewer handoffs, less operational overhead and a more direct path from stored media to active production.

• LucidLink TeamCache: Now battle-tested with early adopter customers after months in the field, TeamCache takes the on-site cache experience to a new level for highly demanding, distributed organizations that require optimal performance anywhere in the world. By placing shared caches closer to teams, TeamCache helps reduce latency and improve responsiveness for large projects spanning multiple offices, hybrid environments and global collaborators
• LucidLink Mobile: Extends secure access to LucidLink for teams on the move, supporting on-set crews, field teams and stakeholders who need fast access to project content while staying within IT controls
• LucidLink filespace: The foundation of the platform – a cloud-native file system that mounts like a local drive so teams can stream files directly from the cloud and stay in flow. Filespaces now includes Guest Access for secure external collaboration and review, plus a growing set of enterprise features designed to ensure resilience, scalability and security for large organizations

Showcasing the reimagined partner ecosystem
LucidLink will also be showcasing its reimagined partner ecosystem, designed to support resellers, systems integrators, cloud marketplaces and technology alliances. The ecosystem provides a unified framework for partners to co-sell, co-deliver and co-support solutions built around LucidLink, with flexible engagement models, improved enablement and streamlined collaboration through a modern partner experience.

As part of this, LucidLink will highlight the new LucidLink Management Platform, which gives partners a centralized way to deploy and operate LucidLink at scale. The LucidLink Management Platform supports core needs like governance, administration and operational control across customer environments, helping partners deliver consistent outcomes, simplify ongoing management and scale service delivery across distributed organizations.
