Highlights

Imagine a world where finding that one perfect image for your marketing campaign is as easy as snapping your fingers. No more endless hours wasted scrolling through folders or typing in vague keywords hoping for a miracle. With intelligent search on Artwork Flow, that world becomes a reality. 

Inefficient storage, organization, management, and retrieval of assets can have a significant impact on organizations and their bottom lines. According to a survey conducted by McKinsey, employees spend an average of 19% of their workweek searching for and gathering information. This translates to about one day per week wasted on searching for assets. Imagine the lost productivity and missed opportunities. 

Furthermore, a study by IDC found that knowledge workers spend 2.5 hours per day searching for information, resulting in a 30% loss of their work time. So, not only is your individual productivity affected but collaboration is hampered and project timelines are stretched thin over time. 

The consequences of ineffective asset retrieval 

When assets are not easily accessible or properly organized, it can lead to duplicated efforts and redundant creations. According to an international survey conducted by M-files, an established document management platform, 83% of marketers have recreated an asset that already existed simply because they were unable to find it. This not only wastes time and resources but also leads to inconsistent branding and messaging. 

The Artwork Flow solution 

Artwork Flow's intelligent search capabilities address these challenges with a comprehensive and intuitive solution for asset retrieval. With features like emotion-based search, object recognition, semantic search, and more, finding the right assets becomes a breeze. It's almost like having a personal assistant who can anticipate your needs and deliver results with lightning speed. 

Search with emotion 

With Artwork Flow's intelligent search, you can search for assets based on the emotions on display. Whether you're looking for images that evoke happiness, excitement, or even sadness, the smart search algorithm will analyze the emotions captured in the assets and show just the type of assets you're looking for. 

Smart tags for easy discovery 

Searching for assets has never been easier thanks to a library that goes through your assets with a fine-tooth comb. Our AI-powered digital asset management software automatically tags every asset in the library with relevant keywords and phrases, making it effortless to find what you're looking for. Whether you need to find assets related to a specific campaign, product, or theme, the smart tags will guide you to the right place with a single click. 

Colors that speak volumes 

Colors play a crucial role in branding and design, and Artwork Flow's intelligent search understands that. By extracting the dominant colors from each asset, our search algorithm allows you to look for assets that match your desired color palette. Whether you're looking for a vibrant red or a soothing blue, finding assets that align with your brand's color scheme has never been easier. 

Objects and descriptions at your fingertips 

Need to find assets that feature specific objects? Artwork Flow's intelligent search has got you covered. Whether it's a cup of coffee, a laptop, or a beach ball, simply type in the object you're looking for, and the search algorithm will retrieve all relevant assets. Additionally, you can search for assets based on semantic descriptions, allowing you to find images that align with specific concepts or themes. 

Customize search for your brand

Now intelligent search is not just about smart tags, colors, or objects. It's about ensuring a deeper personalization that addresses your brand's unique needs. By setting up custom metadata fields on Artwork Flow, you can add detailed information to every asset that is specific to your brand. This can be anything from the campaign name, the season, or even the designer's name.

Consider a large team with thousands of assets. With this feature, you can segregate and index all your digital media more efficiently. This means you can find that needle in the haystack (or that specific image in your massive library) in no time! 

But that's not all. This custom metadata also helps you maintain more comprehensive information about every image. So, apart from knowing who's in the picture or what objects it contains, you can also know when it was created, for which campaign, and by whom. It's like having a mini database for each asset!
