AI Inside and Outside Acquia DAM

Better AI outputs, because they are built from your governed library, not a guess. Faster teams, because search, tagging, and organization happen automatically behind the scenes.

Help Your Teams Work

Connect AI to Your Governed Library

A native MCP Server connects Claude, Microsoft Copilot, and other AI tools to approved assets and rights data. Find, fix, tag, and resize assets in conversation, and save repeat work as skills.

Search the Way You Speak

Scaling your brand requires moving past manual tasks. Acquia DAM uses AI to handle the heavy lifting of tagging, transcribing, and writing descriptions. Natural Language Search takes it further by understanding the meaning behind your queries, designed for English, with support for simple searches in other languages. No more guessing the "magic keyword." Just fast, accurate results that get your content out of the DAM and into the market.

Localize and Translate Content

Support growth in new regions with AI assisted translation and transcreation. Use AI to translate copy, product information, metadata, and videos. Paired with branded templates and searchable assets, your regional teams are set up for success.

Accessibility

Improve the accessibility of your assets with the help of AI. Use AI generated alt text descriptions for images to be used across websites and social posts. Also, AI generated closed captions make videos accessible to those that are deaf, hard of hearing, or in noisy environments.

Facial Recognition

AI recognizes facial features to group into “people,” which can be named by an admin for faster tagging, finding, and even removal. Use it for staff, talent, and other people your brand features.

Tips for AI in DAM

Flag and Govern AI Generated Content

An AI generated upload profile assigns metadata, usage rights, and permissions, and asset group flags label AI content in search results.

Notify For Review

The Paths feature makes it easy to set up notifications for brand or legal review before making an asset accessible for external use.

Approve Every Change

Your AI assistant uses each person's DAM permissions, asks before changing anything, and logs every change in asset history.

FAQs
How does Natural Language Search differ from traditional keyword search?
Natural Language Search (NLS) allows you to search your library using everyday language and intent, rather than needing to know specific "magic keywords." While traditional search requires an exact match (e.g., searching for "bicycle" but finding nothing because the asset was tagged "bike"), NLS understands the meaning and synonyms behind your query. It enables your team to find assets based on a "vibe," a "mood," or a specific persona in seconds
Does Acquia DAM offer native AI capabilities out of the box?
Yes. Acquia DAM includes “out-of-the-box” AI and smart capabilities designed to help customers get value quickly. They are opt-in, and turned on with the flip of a switch by your DAM admin. Features include, tag generation, duplicate detection, facial recognition, and color filter.
Does Acquia DAM connect to AI tools like Microsoft Copilot?
Yes. A native MCP Server connects Microsoft Copilot and other AI tools directly to your governed library, so anything built using them draws from approved assets and rights data. Users can search for assets, view security info, update metadata, and transform assets.
Does DAM governance still apply when an AI tool pulls an asset through MCP?
Yes. The same rights and usage rules that govern assets inside the DAM travel with them into Microsoft Copilot and any other AI tool connected through MCP. An expired asset or a restricted image stays restricted, no matter which tool is asking for it. MCP queries strictly inherit the exact access rights of the authenticated user via OAuth API tokens.
