Innovations include customizable creative review and approval workflows, best-in-class portals for total control over asset sharing, and practical AI solutions to automate manual tasks.

“visual economy demands that brands harness the full power of their images and videos to engage and connect with consumers, and these modern experiences require a modern DAM”

Cloudinary was recently named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Intelligent Digital Asset Management (Doc #US51265723, July 2024). Top brands such as lastminute.com, Mecum Auctions, Neiman Marcus, Paul Smith, Rapha and River Island rely on Cloudinary’s DAM to manage huge asset volumes, improve collaboration, save thousands of hours on repetitive tasks, improve user experience and increase conversions.

An AI-powered single source of truth to improve efficiency across the asset lifecycle

Cloudinary’s DAM serves as a single source of truth for all visual assets, consolidating the often disparate visual asset technologies managed across teams—image and video solutions, dynamic media services, CDNs, and storage—into one highly connected and intelligent platform.

Cloudinary streamlines workflows and improves efficiencies for every team involved in visual storytelling. Its embedded AI automates creative review and approval workflows and enables auto-tagging and visual search for simpler asset classification and discovery. AI-powered content moderation and content credentialing with C2PA compliance helps ensure brand compliance and customer confidence in every asset, even as library volumes increase and user generated content (UGC) and AI content proliferate.

“Cloudinary’s DAM is incredibly intuitive,” said Manuel Mascheroni, head of content, lastminute.com. “In addition to giving our developers access to Cloudinary’s automations via APIs, any DAM user can easily and independently find their ideal asset and manipulate it for their own intended use case. They also have direct access to a studio that allows them to see, in real time, how to edit the asset and what it will look like once published across channels.”

An API-first DAM for composable architectures

According to a recent independent DAM survey commissioned by Cloudinary, 86% of respondents consider a highly integratable DAM to be extremely or very important. API-first from the start and one of the earliest members of the MACH Alliance, Cloudinary offers a robust ecosystem of more than 300 partners, integrations and plug-ins with popular tools.

“visual economy demands that brands harness the full power of their images and videos to engage and connect with consumers, and these modern experiences require a modern DAM,” said Rob Daynes, Managing Director of Digital Asset Management at Cloudinary. “When powerful martech tools work together in harmony, the professionals that rely on them can too. This raises the bar for the kinds of experiences they can build to truly distinguish themselves in their market.”
