Adobe Integrations Overview

The Curator MAM system tightly integrates with the Adobe editing environment through the Curator for Adobe Panel. The Panel provides direct access to high-resolution and/or streamed 2% proxy copies of all the editor’s available assets, helping them to edit remotely from anywhere in the world and stay in creative flow, without ever needing to download any original assets.

Key Differentiators

Remote editorial proxy workflows:

For editors and creative teams, Curator/CuratorNow makes discovering, editing, and collaborating on media projects as seamless as possible, from anywhere in the world. Curator’s intelligent proxy transcode workflows provide editors with access to streamed proxy copies of pre-recorded and live high-resolution assets, directly into their Adobe editing environment at just 2% of their original file size.

Remote conform and export:

Curator’s unique remote conform and export capability enables editors to send their conform and export jobs back to where the high-resolution assets are saved, freeing up their editing station for more editing and avoiding downloading and uploading high-resolution assets (which also saves significant egress costs for cloud deployments).

Curator solves your technology headaches:

For technology teams, Curator/CuratorNow solves the media asset storage and management headache by providing a secure, centralized platform to manage an ever-growing collection of media assets. Curator saves storage by avoiding asset duplication, improves security with user access policies, and offers advanced analytics into system usage.

Live ingest and logging:

Unlike many MAM systems, Curator seamlessly handles live ingest and logging, with editors seeing the logs appear as live Markers on a growing 2% proxy copy on their timeline in real-time.

Powerful workflow engine:

Curator’s workflow engine streamlines repetitive and essential business processes, saving time and avoiding user errors.

Frame accurate proxy transcode at up to 8x real-time:

Curator’s proxy transcode produces frame-accurate proxy copies of high-resolution assets at up-to 8x real-time.

Strong focus on user experience:

IPV put the user at the centre of our design process, ensuring user journeys in Curator are as simple and intuitive as possible.

Integrations:

Curator works with your existing technology stack thanks to integrations with an ever-growing number of technology and storage partners, and advanced API access.

Easily configured:

Curator is easily configured out of the box, while advanced configuration is available for businesses that need a more bespoke solution.

AI-enabled:

Curator integrates with leading artificial intelligence vendors (Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and Google Cloud Platform) for speech-to-text and object recognition metadata logging, but extends this functionality further with controlled vocabulary and confidence filters to avoid “data deluge”.
