Spools mounts a cloud Drive in Finder. You need a General Motion account with Spools access. [Join the waitlist](https://spools.cloud/) if you do not have it yet.

- [Install and connect on Mac](/storage/install/) — macOS 26.4 or newer; one Drive at a time.
- [Use Spools with Premiere](/storage/premiere/) — import from the mounted Drive; keep project files local.
- [Connect your AI app](/platform/mcp/) — find and read files.

## Browser

1. [Open Spools](https://storage.generalmotion.studio/app) and sign in.
2. Select your organization and Drive. A personal organization starts with **Main**.
3. Upload files, then wait for them to finish.
4. To open them in Finder, [connect that Drive on Mac](/storage/install/).

Some Drives are read-only.
