How tuu compares
There are good offload tools. Most of them stop when the copy is verified. tuu goes on: it knows who shot the card, keeps your backups in step, and hands the clips to the edit with sound in sync.

Which one is right for you?
- tuu – for crews and production companies that want safe offloads without a DIT workstation: insert the card, everything is sorted, verified and ready for the edit.
- Hedge OffShoot or ShotPut Pro – if you only need fast, verified copies and prefer a one-time price.
- Silverstack – for DITs on large productions who also manage looks and dailies.
The best way to find out: try every tuu feature free for 14 days.
