SI-Media's Media Asset Management solution already incorporates many AI elements. From face recognition to object detection, from content moderation to speech-to-text, SI-Media AI tools are all combined within the new "Costanza" environment. The greatest benefit comes from the seamless combination with other YES! features. News agencies can exploit these content tracking tools to quickly find the protagonists of their stories created with YES!NRCS. Broadcasters can activate explicit scene detection in combination with the censorship solution to ensure that the appropriate content is transmitted all the time.
Notably, the company has developed its own AI engine instead of solely depending on one-size-fits-all, third-party solutions. This approach provides several advantages, including the flexibility to offer both on-cloud and on-premises solutions. The former option allows media companies to reduce the cost of installation and maintenance on their facilities, while the latter empowers customers to decrease their dependency solely on cloud providers, particularly when handling sensitive content deemed unsuitable for cloud storage, and allows them to choose their preferred commercial model.
