What Nomad Media is
Nomad Media is a cloud-native media asset management platform for teams that store, organize, search, enrich, and distribute large video libraries. It handles video, audio, documents, and images, with metadata and tagging, version history, guest sharing, and API access. Semantic search finds material by meaning across visuals, audio, and speech, including moments associated with a face, object, scene, or spoken word. Its AI layer generates metadata, recognizes and tags people, and supports agents that clip, enrich, and route content; the platform also exposes an MCP interface and public API. Live provides broadcast control, clipping during a stream, and automatic conversion from live video to VOD with AI enrichment. Manage supports hybrid and cloud deployment. Connect supports migrations, two-way real-time synchronization, and browsing and searching Glacier archives without retrieval. Nomad Media Explorer is a native Mac and Windows app that integrates the library with Finder or File Explorer without local file caching. Linux users can access functionality through a command-line interface, while a mobile experience is under evaluation. Security options include role- and content-level permissions, guest contributor approval, and SSO including SAML and OAuth 2.0. Pricing is on request, and visitors can request a one-hour live demo.
