MASV

MASV (MASV Inc.) is a Canadian software company that provides cloud-based large file transfer solutions. The brand is built around a browser- and desktop-based service that lets media producers, studios, agencies and enterprise teams move very large files quickly and securely, without the friction of traditional FTP or consumer file-sharing tools. Its product surface includes speed and reliability features, security and compliance controls, automation, file upload portals, metadata handling, storage options and an Ingest API, and it is marketed for media and entertainment workflows as well as broader enterprise file movement. The company is based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, and operates as part of the LiveQoS group. MASV's leadership team combines long experience in high-growth technology companies with deep specialization in networking and large-file transfer. Majed Alhajry serves as CTO and interim CEO; he is a software engineer and entrepreneur who invented Superbeam, a peer-to-peer file-sharing app for fast transfers over WiFi without a router, and he specializes in large file transfer, networking acceleration and complex technical problem-solving. Jeff Stoss is Chief Financial Officer, with roughly 25 years of finance and operations experience in high-growth technology firms; he has been with MASV since 2019 and with its parent company LiveQoS since 2016, and previously served as CFO of publicly traded NUVO Network Management and in senior finance roles at Cognos, IBM and Conversant Intellectual Property Management. Jon Riis is VP of Partner Success, joining MASV in March 2022 after many years at Corel Corp., where he built global partnership and bundling deals with companies such as HP, Apple, Dell, Epson and Lenovo. MASV positions itself as a modern alternative for moving large media and enterprise files, emphasizing speed, reliability, security and automation rather than legacy managed file transfer. Its go-to-market motion includes self-serve sign-up, a desktop app, developer documentation, sales-assisted demos and proof-of-concept engagements, and partner-led distribution. The brand publishes customer stories, whitepapers, architecture and compliance documentation, and maintains a public system status page, reflecting an enterprise-oriented posture. Its customers and partners span media production and technology, and its leadership cites relationships with global industry leaders including Amazon, Dell, Apple, HP, Intel, Walmart and Microsoft. Because MASV is a privately held, venture-stage software brand within the LiveQoS group, detailed financials and a full founding timeline are not publicly disclosed in the available evidence. What is clear is that the brand has established itself as a specialist in high-speed, secure large-file transfer, with a leadership team based largely in Ottawa and a product roadmap centered on speed, security, automation and API-driven integration.

MASV Inc. is a Canadian software company providing cloud-based large file transfer solutions. The brand emerged from the LiveQoS group, an Ottawa-based technology organization, and has been built around the problem of moving very large files quickly and securely over the public internet. Its leadership roster reflects this lineage: CFO Jeff Stoss has been with MASV since 2019 and with its parent company LiveQoS since 2016, indicating that MASV was being developed and commercialized within LiveQoS during the late 2010s. In its early commercial phase, MASV focused on the media and entertainment market, where large camera files, dailies and finished assets routinely exceed the practical limits of email, consumer file-sharing services and legacy FTP. The company built a browser-based transfer service and a desktop application, and it added enterprise-oriented capabilities over time, including security and compliance controls, automation, file upload portals, metadata handling, storage options and an Ingest API. These features positioned MASV as a modern alternative to managed file transfer (MFT) products, and the company now markets its platform for both media workflows and broader enterprise file movement. The company expanded its leadership team as it grew. Jon Riis joined in March 2022 as VP of Partner Success, bringing a background in global technology partnerships from Corel Corp., where he built bundling and partnership deals with HP, Apple, Dell, Epson and Lenovo. Majed Alhajry, a software engineer and entrepreneur who invented the peer-to-peer file-sharing app Superbeam, serves as CTO and interim CEO, leading technology and software development with a focus on large file transfer and networking acceleration. Jeff Stoss, a finance veteran of Cognos, IBM and Conversant Intellectual Property Management, leads finance and operations. MASV's go-to-market model combines self-serve adoption with enterprise sales. The website offers sign-up, a desktop app download, developer documentation, contact-sales and demo booking, and proof-of-concept engagements. The brand publishes customer stories, whitepapers, architecture and compliance documentation, and a public system status page, signaling an enterprise-grade posture. Its partner and customer ecosystem spans media production and technology, and its leadership cites relationships with global industry leaders including Amazon, Dell, Apple, HP, Intel, Walmart and Microsoft. As a privately held brand within the LiveQoS group, MASV does not disclose detailed financial results or a complete founding timeline in the available evidence. Its trajectory nonetheless shows a specialist software brand that has moved from a media-focused large-file transfer tool toward a broader enterprise platform, with continued emphasis on speed, security, automation and API-driven integration.
