What is a Hive vs a Session?

A Hive is your project or group home. You invite members, track goals/updates, and manage the Sessions tied to that Hive.

A Session is the collaboration workspace. That is where you share audio files, lyrics, notes, assign roles, and lock credits.

Both are live on Soundhiver now.

Typical flow:

1. Go to Hives and create a Hive (name, genre, visibility, who you are looking for).
2. Invite collaborators to the Hive.
3. From the Hive, create a Session when you are ready to work on a song.
4. Manage multiple Sessions under the same Hive if the project needs more than one room.

Inside a Session:

1. Upload demos and file versions.
2. Add lyrics and notes so everyone works from the same page.
3. Assign roles for each person.
4. Lock a role when that contribution is done so Verified Credits appear on profiles.

If you have a crew or longer project: create the Hive first, then open Sessions from it.

If you only need one quick collab room: you can open a Session directly, then still attach or manage work as needed.
