The Mission

Smokestack is built for the bold. The self-taught, the underdogs, the ones who build, break, learn, repeat. Studios held together with duct tape and ambition. Small teams punching way above their weight. The brave ones who start. And the stubborn ones who finish. It's designed to give you studio grade firepower with freelance flexibility.

Scalable

Smokestack allows you to scale up or down as and when you need it, no strings attached. Backed by Akamai compute.

Optimised for Performance

You can rest assured your workstation is fine tuned for your creative power. No more wrestling with drivers or continuous hardware upgrades.

Remote Flexibility

Full power with no compromises, use the full power of a desktop workstation without any of the luggage with pixel perfect WebRTC streaming straight to your browser.

Total control via a single interface.

Our custom studio dashboard gives you a bird's eye view of your entire rendering and workstation fleet. Monitor instance health, track provisioning pipelines in real-time, and spin machines up or down with a single click.

  • Provision new workstations in minutes
