A video hosting platform with 4K on every plan, hard-limit pricing, private review links, ownership proof on every upload, and opt-in licensing that pays…
sinima. is a rights-first platform for human-made video. Creators, studios, and schools upload, and we host, protect, prove where the work came from, and license it only on their terms.
Hosting is three jobs: store the original, play it well anywhere, and let you share it on your terms. Playback quality, embed stability, and privacy controls are the baseline, and any serious platform should clear it. The questions that separate them are the ones asked after the file is up. Can you prove the work is yours to a stranger? Do your terms, including no AI training, travel with the file? Has the work ever paid you anything? Answer those three and you are choosing infrastructure rather than a player.
4K adaptive streaming on every plan, including Free for short assets, and 4K downloads from Professional up. Embeds that keep working when you replace a cut. A player you can brand, with chapters, download control, and passcode-protected showcases. Public pages, channels, and screening rooms when you want an audience, and nothing public when you do not.
Hard limits only. Free is $0 with 5GB. Starter is $15 a month with a 3TB library and 20 hours of watching, Professional is $39 a month with a 7TB library and 80 hours, and Studio is $99 a month with a 17TB library and 220 hours. Every video plays in 1080p and switches to 4K anytime. Studios, agencies, and film schools price on capacity and streaming hours instead of feature tiers, and people are never charged for. No plan bills you for bandwidth after the fact.
On upload, the media is fingerprinted, a timestamped ownership certificate is issued, and a refusal of AI training is recorded and served to crawlers. Exports carry. If you choose to license a title, that is per file, opt in, and it pays you up to 85 cents on the dollar, with the terms recorded. Nothing is offered on your behalf.
Comparing with your current platform, read the Vimeo alternative page. Worried mostly about safety, read secure video hosting. Sharing unreleased work, read private video hosting. Bringing a library over, the one-click Vimeo import takes about ten minutes.
For creators and studios who care about owning their work, the deciding factors are 4K on every plan, predictable hard-limit pricing, private review links, and proof of ownership on each file. sinima. covers all four and adds opt-in licensing that pays the rights holder up to 85 cents on the dollar.

Starter is $15 a month with a 3TB library and 20 hours of watching, Professional is $39 a month with a 7TB library and 80 hours, and Studio is $99 a month with a 17TB library and 220 hours. Every video plays in 1080p and switches to 4K anytime. Studios, agencies, and film schools are priced separately on capacity and streaming hours, with unlimited people. Every plan uses hard limits, so there is no bandwidth bill after the fact.
Yes. Embeds are stable, branded, and keep working when you replace a cut, with chapters, download control, and passcode protection available per video.
Yes. Hard limits only here. When a cap is reached the relevant action pauses cleanly and you choose whether to tidy files or upgrade. We never invoice overages.
On this platform it does. Every upload is fingerprinted and issued a timestamped ownership certificate, exports carry and a refusal of AI training is recorded against the file.
Yes. The one-click Vimeo import authenticates securely, pulls your library with privacy settings and passcodes intact, and mints an ownership certificate on every file. Most libraries finish in about ten minutes.
