October 23, 2024 / NewsShark

Acquia, a provider of digital experience software, announced AI enhancements to the company’s digital asset management solution, Acquia DAM, to help creatives and marketers to increase productivity and extract more value from their digital content.

Acquia Video Creator, by Moovly, is now available as an add-on module to Acquia DAM and PIM (product information management) solutions. Acquia Video Creator allows users to produce professional-quality, brand-compliant videos with a drag-and-drop interface, existing assets from their digital asset library, customizable templates, and a library of graphics, animations, and video clips. Start entirely new projects, edit existing videos, and use AI features to generate scripts, voiceover, subtitles, transcripts, and translations. Acquia Video Creator also offers collaboration tools.

Acquia also expanded the AI features available within Acquia DAM to make it easier to manage, find, and share video and image assets.

Spaces gives you access controls over who can access your research and files. For Enterprise Pro customers files and searches are excluded from AI training by default. Pro users can choose to opt out of AI training in their settings.
