What Lucid DAM is
Lucid DAM is a digital asset management service for organizing and sharing images, video, documents, and design files through an API. Metadata and tagging help classify assets, while approval workflows support review steps. Version history keeps earlier asset states available, and guest sharing provides access for people outside the main workspace. API access is listed as part of the product. Lucid DAM uses a freemium model. The Starter plan is free at no cost and allows 2 projects with 1 GB of storage. Basic costs $20 a month, billed monthly, and includes 250 projects with 15 GB of storage. Advanced costs $25 a month, billed monthly, and lists 15 GB of storage inherited from Basic. A 14-day trial is also listed. The stated storage limit is 15, and the platform listing is API.
