Produce Content and Results More Quickly

Any organization managing a large volume of video, images, and other valuable file data needs to catalog and organize these assets – both in-work and after completion. Teams can collaborate more effectively and produce content more quickly. Managers can control and track who is working on what and manage access control across the full data lifecycle for secure sharing and data governance. Complex tiered storage is made simple. Large content archives can be indexed and searched across local and cloud repositories. And the latest artificial intelligence and machine learning technology can be leveraged to enrich the data further. In short, an asset management platform can help organizations unlock the business value in their digital data.

Communicate and Collaborate More Effectively

Make team-based collaboration faster and more focused - organize assets by project, by customer, or search your entire content library from anywhere to quickly pull content into new projects. Use the new review and approval and real-time communication framework with annotation to track project progress from creative selection, feedback and versions with clip stacking meta-folders.

Unlock Value in Large Content Archives

Finally, you can index and organize all of your content in one place - whether stored on-site, cloud, object, or tape - to make it searchable, taggable, and discoverable. Let your content experts continuously tag, enrich and prepare content for monetization from anywhere, or tap into Cloud AI tools to enrich, transcribe, recognize, and tag content at cloud-scale.

Let Automated Worker Engines Speed Production

Quantum CatDV Workers are a powerful way to automate and speed every part of your workflow for precision, scale, or both: from ingest to transcoding, alerts and notifications, and file movement for archive, project syncing, or to tightly integrate with your custom solution to match your evolving production needs.
