Which one should you pick?
Pick MASV if
You’re building around production teams. MASV is the pro choice for sending genuinely massive files — terabyte interview rushes, raw camera footage, multi-track stems — without the 50GB cap that strangles WeTransfer. Pay-as-you-go at $0.
Pick Notion if
You’re building around content workflows. Notion is where most podcast teams park guest packets, run-of-show docs, and editorial calendars. The free tier is fine for solos; the moment you collaborate seriously, Notion-tax kicks in, and AI features are now gated behind the $20 Business plan whether you want them or not.

Frequently asked
What does MASV do better than Notion?
MASV's standout is "No file size cap, accelerated transfers". Notion doesn't make that promise — it leans into "Wildly flexible: wiki, tracker, and database in one" instead. If the first sentence describes your workflow, pick MASV; if the second does, pick Notion.
What are the trade-offs?
MASV: $0.25/gb compounds fast at scale. Notion: search is famously slow at scale. Whether either matters depends entirely on what you actually need — neither is a deal-breaker by itself.
Do they support the same platforms?
Notion works on iOS, Android where MASV doesn't. If you're on a specific OS or device, that may decide for you.
Can I use MASV and Notion together?
Both are asset sharing tools so most teams pick one. Some workflows do combine them — for example, using MASV for one show or episode type and Notion for another. Worth trying both free tiers before committing.
