What it is
Nomad Media is a paid, cloud-native media asset management platform for storing, organizing, searching, enriching, and distributing video, audio, documents, and images. It includes metadata and tagging, version history, guest sharing, and API access. Semantic search finds content by meaning across visuals, audio, and speech, including faces, objects, scenes, or spoken words. AI generates metadata, recognizes people, and supports agents that clip, enrich, and route content. Live provides broadcast control, stream clipping, and automatic live-to-VOD conversion with AI enrichment. Manage supports hybrid and cloud deployment, while Connect handles migrations, two-way synchronization, and Glacier archive search without retrieval. Native Explorer apps integrate with Finder or File Explorer on Mac and Windows. Linux has command-line access but no visual desktop app, and mobile is under evaluation. Security includes role and content permissions, guest approval, and SSO. Pricing is on request.
