Asset Management

12 features

Asset Gallery & Browsing

Bulk ID & SKU Lookup

Paste a list of asset IDs, SKUs, or any other identifier into the search bar or a quick filter to retrieve every matching asset at once. Supports up to 1,000 values per paste, with admin-configurable fields so any custom identifier in your library becomes instantly searchable.

Asset Detail & Metadata Management

View any asset in full detail with zoom, preview, and a dynamic metadata form. Edit titles inline, fill multilingual fields, pick from controlled vocabularies, and see AI-generated captions, dominant colors, and focus points, all in one place.

Asset Downloads & Download Requests

Download assets in your preferred resolution and format, with optional watermarking. When permissions require it, users can submit download requests for admin approval, keeping your content secure while staying frictionless.

Asset Versions

Upload new versions of any asset while keeping the full history intact. Compare versions side by side, restore previous ones, or download any past version whenever you need it.

Crops & AI Edits

Create cropped variants using presets for social media, print, and web. Generate AI-powered edits that go through an approval workflow before being added to your library.

Attachments

Attach supporting files, like briefs, contracts, or style guides, directly to assets or collections. Organize them by type for easy retrieval.

Comments & Discussions

Discuss assets and collections with your team without leaving the page. Mention teammates with @ to send them a direct notification, post threaded replies, and mark discussions as resolved when the work is done. Mentioned users and content owners get email and in-app alerts so nothing slips through.

Asset Bookmarks

Bookmark your favorite assets for quick access later. View all your bookmarks on a dedicated page, sorted however you prefer.

Asset Trash & Soft Delete

Deleted assets go to trash instead of disappearing forever. Restore them anytime within 30 days, or permanently delete when you're sure. Admins can empty the trash or let auto-cleanup handle it.

File Upload & Ingestion Pipeline

Drag and drop files or import from Google Drive. Uploads are processed automatically in the background, virus scanning, metadata extraction, preview generation, AI tagging, and more happen without any manual effort. Track every upload's progress in real time.

Duplicate Detection & Resolution

Catch exact duplicates during upload and get a side-by-side comparison to decide what to keep. Run library-wide scans to find visually similar images, then resolve them in grouped batches, keeping your library clean and free of redundancy.

On-the-fly Image Optimization

Serve images in the exact size, quality, and format you need, generated on the fly and cached for instant delivery. Perfect for websites, apps, and CDN integration.

Collections

Organize assets into hierarchical collections with a tree-based sidebar and drag-and-drop management. Create nested structures, reorder freely, and manage assets within each collection, perfect for campaigns, projects, or departments.

Collection Types

Define different types of collections, each with its own hierarchy rules, metadata fields, and structure. Control how deep collections can nest, what metadata they carry, and how they behave.

Smart Collections

Set up rules that automatically sort new assets into the right collections based on their metadata. Once configured, your library organizes itself, no manual effort required.

Edit images with AI-powered tools, crop, resize, remove backgrounds, replace objects, correct perspective, and apply brand overlays. Save your edits back to the library as new asset versions.

AI Chat Assistant

Ask questions about your library in natural language. The AI assistant helps you find assets, apply filters, and navigate your DAM, with conversation history and direct links to results.

Face Detection & Person Management

Automatically detect faces in uploaded images and link them to named people in your library. Search by person to instantly find every asset they appear in.

Translation Services
