Media Upload: Intelligent Content Ingestion

Transform any media file into AI-ready, searchable content with intelligent upload processing that automatically extracts, analyzes, and indexes documents, images, audio, and video.

The Content Ingestion Challenge

Organizations drown in unstructured content:

  • Document chaos: PDFs, Word docs, presentations, spreadsheets scattered across systems
  • Media silos: Images, videos, and audio files stored without meaningful metadata
  • Search limitations: Content exists but can't be found
  • Manual processing: Hours spent extracting information from files
  • Format fragmentation: Different tools for different file types

The result: valuable content becomes invisible, searchable only by filename or manual tags. Knowledge workers spend 30% of their time searching for information they know exists somewhere.

Intelligent Media Processing

Media Upload transforms raw files into structured, searchable, AI-accessible content---automatically extracting text, metadata, entities, and meaning from any file type.
