THE PROBLEM

Most archives are searchable by filename. That's not enough.

Years of footage sit across drives and systems with little or no metadata. Editors lose hours hunting for one clip. Credits, captions and wire-service details are locked inside the video, where no one can search them. So the footage that could fill tonight's story, a social post or a licensing deal just sits there.

FROM TAPE TO REVENUE

All we need is a filename

Still on tape? We help you digitize and organize your archive so it can be searched, discovered and put back to work across production, social, editorial and licensing workflows.
