Cirua

Cirua is a lightweight digital asset workspace for teams that need a reliable home for brand, campaign, sales, and product files. It fits growing marketing, sales, creative, operations, and founder-led groups moving beyond shared folders without wanting an enterprise DAM rollout. The free tier is useful for an individual library, while Team is the meaningful choice for collaborative sharing; integration coverage and storage costs need careful review.

Overview

Cirua puts brand files, campaign assets, sales collateral, and product media in one searchable library. Retrieval can use names, metadata, collections, file types, or usage context, and tags add another layer of structure. The intended process runs from uploading and organizing through permissions, approvals, and controlled distribution. In practice, that gives a growing team more discipline than a conventional folder tree while keeping the product lighter than a full enterprise DAM. Content approval workflows are not currently available, so teams needing formal review gates should treat the approval portion of that process as a gap.

Key features

Library and search

Searching beyond filenames is valuable when a user remembers a campaign, format, collection, or intended use rather than the exact title. Folders, tags, metadata, and collections support a personal library on the free plan; Team adds shared library spaces for group work.

Sharing and access

Branded sharing links and portals provide a more presentable route to teammates and external partners than exposing a raw shared folder. Access controls help limit who can use distributed material. Team adds buyer rooms, making the paid tier better suited to sales and partner handoffs. Advanced permissions and broader brand-portal capabilities belong to the planned Enterprise tier, not the current product.

OneDrive connection

Microsoft OneDrive is the production-ready integration for connecting approved files and team folders. SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage are in progress, so organizations dependent on those repositories should not assume equivalent connectivity today.

Pricing

Always Free

Always Free costs $0.00 per user forever and includes one user seat, 5 GB of workspace storage, and a personal asset library. Folders, upload, preview, download, search, tags, metadata, collections, and shareable links cover the basics for an individual or very small proof of concept. There are no shared library spaces or team roles, and 5 GB will constrain sizeable media collections.

Team

Team is $8.00 per seat per month, with unlimited team seats and 20 GB of included storage per seat. Shared library spaces, team roles and permissions, branded sharing links, buyer rooms, and extra storage make it the practical plan for a growing group. Additional storage costs $80 per 100 GB per year across active plans, an expense worth adding to any media-heavy budget. Paid plans receive two months free with annual billing from 07/01/2026 through 12/31/2026; during that period, Team is billed as 10 months. Team is self-serve with standard support.

Enterprise

Enterprise is shown at $20.00 per seat per month but is coming later and is not currently available. Its proposed package includes higher storage limits, brand portals, advanced permissions, workflow approvals, custom domain, SSO, dedicated onboarding, and priority support. It should not influence a present purchasing decision.

Platforms

Cirua runs on the web, making it suitable for browser-based access across a team’s existing devices. No native desktop or mobile platform is provided.

Who it's for

Choose Cirua if a growing marketing, sales, creative, operations, or founder-led team has outgrown shared folders and wants searchable organization plus controlled external sharing. Free is aimed at a single user; Team suits collaborative asset operations without a sales-led rollout, since both plans are self-serve. It is a weaker fit for organizations requiring formal approvals now, broad storage-provider integrations, native apps, or enterprise controls such as SSO.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Search by metadata, collections, file type, and usage context reduces dependence on exact filenames.
• Pro: Team combines shared spaces, roles, branded links, and buyer rooms at $8 per seat per month.
• Pro: A permanent free tier offers a practical personal library without a subscription.
• Con: The free workspace is limited to one seat and 5 GB, making it unsuitable for team repositories.
• Con: OneDrive is the only production-ready integration; several common storage services remain in progress.
• Con: Content approval workflows and the advertised Enterprise controls are not currently available.
• Con: Extra storage at $80 per 100 GB per year can materially increase costs for large media collections.

Alternatives

• Airstride is a partner-management option with web and API access, a free tier for up to three partners, and CRM integration.
• Attach is a simpler choice for document sharing when a free allowance of up to three documents is sufficient.

Verdict

Cirua is a sensible starting point for growing teams that need a searchable asset library, shared spaces, and controlled branded distribution without enterprise implementation overhead. Pick Team when collaboration and buyer-facing sharing are central, and use Free for a single user’s organized library. Look elsewhere if formal approvals, native apps, multiple live storage integrations, or currently available enterprise governance are essential.
