What is Kino AI?

Kino AI presents itself as a comprehensive solution designed to assist production teams by centralizing their footage logging and search capabilities. It aims to significantly reduce the time spent on logging, claiming up to a 90% reduction, enabling instant search across all footage. The tool offers comprehensive logging tailored to specific standards, including transcription services for multiple languages like English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Korean, complete with speaker separation.

Furthermore, Kino AI automatically generates summaries and identifies key moments and people within the footage, making all this information searchable. It seamlessly integrates with existing Network Attached Storage (NAS) systems (SMB, Synology, NEXIS, etc.) and allows metadata synchronization with major Non-Linear Editing (NLE) software such as Dalet, Avid, and Premiere Pro. The platform supports tagging based on asset type and pre-existing metadata fields, facilitating efficient organization and retrieval of media assets. Security is addressed through options for fully-secure on-premise deployment with read access or an enterprise private cloud solution, featuring fine-grained privileges and multi-factor authentication.
