​
Upload files and folders

Drag files or entire folders from your computer into any project or directory at app.aspect.inc. Aspect recreates your folder structure automatically, so a folder full of nested subfolders arrives exactly the way you organized it. While an upload runs, the upload panel shows progress for each file and for the batch as a whole. You can keep working (browse, search, and review) while uploads continue in the background.
Large files upload in small chunks, so a slow or interrupted connection never forces you to start over from zero. Failed uploads retry automatically.

​
Pause and resume

You can pause any upload and pick it up later:
  • Pause or resume a single file from the upload panel.
  • Pause or resume an entire batch at once.
Paused files wait until you resume them; everything else keeps uploading.

​
Supported file types

Aspect accepts videos, images, audio files, and documents. Common examples:

Files Aspect can’t index are still stored safely - you can organize, share, and download them like anything else.

​
Organize with directories

Directories work like folders. Inside a project you can:
1

Create directories

Make a new directory anywhere in a project, and nest directories as deep as you need.
2

Move items

Drag assets and directories to a new location, or use the move action to pick a destination.
3

Rename anything

Rename assets and directories at any time.
For grouping files that live in different places without moving them, use collections.

​
Version stacks

When you have several cuts or revisions of the same asset, stack them into a single version stack instead of cluttering a directory with near-duplicates.
  • Add an asset to another asset’s stack to group them as versions of one item.
  • Reorder versions inside a stack so the latest one sits on top - the top version is what everyone sees by default.
  • Remove a version from the stack at any time to make it a standalone asset again.

​
Trash and restore

Deleting an asset or directory moves it to the project’s trash - nothing is lost immediately.
  • Restore items from the trash to put them back.
  • Empty the trash to permanently delete everything in it.
Emptying the trash is permanent. Once the trash is emptied, those files cannot be recovered.

​
What happens after upload

The moment a file finishes uploading, Aspect’s AI starts processing it in the background - transcribing speech, understanding what’s on screen, and preparing it for instant playback. See How AI indexing works for the full picture.
