Loki is a scalable workflow automation platform from Filmworkz that enables organisations to automate enhancement, restoration, upscaling, standards conversion and delivery workflows using DVO technology.

The full-featured version of Loki supports watch folders, allows users to create and edit DVO and export presets, provides variable export settings, includes a preview window, and offers a complete control panel for configuring and monitoring jobs.  It also has a API making it capable of integrating with third party infrastructure such as MAMs.

What is Loki Render?

Loki Render integrates with Phoenix to allow render and processing jobs to be offloaded to separate hardware, freeing up primary workstations and increasing productivity and efficiency.

Loki Render is used for monitoring and executing Phoenix originated renders using predefined export presets rather than creating new jobs.

How do I renew or extend my subscription?

Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the existing subscription period, unless cancelled prior to the renewal date.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

If you don't want to stay subscribed, you can cancel at anytime. You can continue to use any subscribed product for the period you've already paid for. After that time, you'll be unable to use the tool(s) until you create a new subscription.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Login to your account here.

How many computers can I use Filmworkz tools on?

Filmworkz tools use node locked licensing, therefore each subscription entitles you to one instance of that tool which can be deployed on a single machine.

Licenses can be transferred between machines during your subscription period using the license revocation and redeployment process in the FLM.

I think I've got a problem with one of the tools. How do I let you know?

First of all, raise it with Juno - if an answer isn't available, you can choose to contact the Filmworkz team, or raise a ticket if you have an active Support contract.
