Make your files searchable and organized with metadata

Store your assets safely in multiple collections and search across all of them at once. Group and arrange content precisely how your users prefer. Filenames are great, but We❤️ Metadata!

Metadata is keywords and descriptions about your files that makes them searchable and possible to build automation. All text in your PDFs, and documents is also fully searchable.

Metadata standards

Build custom schemas to describe your assets or use the extensive built-in XMP, IPTC, and EXIF fields that come as standard.

Create SmartFolders

Combine different search terms in virtual folders, such as time frames or asset owner, and get instant hits without having to type a single word.

Powerful taxonomies

Make it easy for users to find what they need using visual filters that also aid quick and consistent tagging.

Preview and share any file type

Easily select assets and share your selection with others via email, as a public link, or create an album and share directly. Then control who has the rights to view or download the assets.

If you're uncertain which pictures are the best, use deep-zoom for a detailed view. With multi-page documents you can leaf through the individual pages, and for videos there are playback controls and key frame navigation.

Control How Files Are Used

Get the overview of the who, the what and the where. Manage usage with visual markers, notes and ID-tags on your collections.
