Air Checks All The Boxes

Why Air Checks All the Boxes

More and more platforms are emerging that claim to keep digital assets organized and easily accessible. Often, users find that platforms offer some of their needed solutions, but leave automation and AI-based tools on the cutting room floor.

There’s only one Creative Operations platform like Air — where team collaboration is seamless and your creative process runs uninterrupted. Air is designed to check all of the boxes required.

What is a Digital Asset Management System?

A DAM system is designed to organize and store digital assets in one central location, making them easy to access, distribute, and share. While DAM systems offer many benefits, they also come with significant drawbacks like high costs, long-term contracts, outdated software, and lengthy migration processes. These can be deal-breakers for teams looking to scale quickly.

Jess Cook, Head of Content & Comms at Island and co-host of That's Marketing, Baby! podcast, shared her vision for a perfect content marketing tool:

In fact, I think it's one of the most challenging parts of content marketing ⤵
• Letting sales know what assets you have, who they're for, and where to find them.
• Not letting them get lost in the Google folder/Slack thread abyss.

If I could whip up the tool of my dreams to help me do this, it would:
1. Actually let you SEE the assets, not just a bunch of folders you have you have to blindly dig around in
2. Let you put the same asset in multiple places to signal that it can be used across channels, audiences, verticals, use cases, etc.
3. Prevent anyone from using an old or in-progress version instead of the approved final version
4. Let the sales team easily find the perfect piece of content for their needs without having to Slack you every time
5. Sync what's in the cloud with Finder, allowing you to drag, drop, and edit in either space

There's only one tool I've ever seen that checks all of these boxes.

Make the Most Out of Air

• Sync to Finder:

  Connect your desktop with Air Flow, the MacOS app that allows two-way sync for your local assets and direct access to most tools

• Streamline Naming and Tagging Systems:

  Implement a standardized tagging and file naming system so everyone can quickly find what they're looking for

• Video Feedback:

  Give frame-specific feedback with timestamped video commenting and say goodbye to never-ending email threads
