Anchorpoint vs GitAhead

Anchorpoint is a version-control and digital-asset-management tool for projects involving video, real-time 3D graphics, animation, or still images. Its desktop application connects projects to Git and synchronizes metadata for file locks, assets, reviews, and notifications. Production files stay in a Git repository or shared storage such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or NAS; its cloud service stores metadata instead. Teams can protect binary assets with file locking and manage visual reviews with approvals, tags, statuses, and rich annotations, including frame-accurate notes. The product supports offline use through locally cached metadata and local version-control operations. Integrations include Git servers, creative tools, and game engines; a Python API and CLI support custom actions and integrations. Organizations can self-host the metadata server. Personal is free for non-commercial single users; Team costs €25 per user per month, and a 14-day trial is available. The desktop app runs on Windows and macOS, with macOS 12 or newer required.
