Managing digital assets sometimes feels like a balancing act between performance, cost, and usability. As storage demands grow and performance expectations rise, it’s no wonder why you might feel overwhelmed.
That’s why the latest Daminion 10.0 Version is here to address the areas that matter most: reducing costs, improving speed, and enhancing the user experience.
We’ve made AI tagging 5 times cheaper, allowing you to easily organize your digital library without overspending. In addition, our completely redesigned web interface ensures smoother navigation and faster performance, while our new data indexing method delivers a 10x boost to search speed.
Let’s explore all the new improvements together.
Why Upgrade to Daminion 10.0?
Lower the Costs with Smart Tagging and ChatGPT Mini
AI remains at the core of Daminion’s vision to streamline asset management for teams across industries. With this update, we’ve introduced integration with the GPT Mini model, reducing AI tagging costs.
Now, your team can not only benefit from AI technology but also minimize your time constraints and expenses.
Other enhancements include:
- Optimized ChatGPT requests for faster and more cost-efficient tagging.
- Support for additional media formats in auto-tagging, including Camera RAW, Raster, and Vector images.
A new Daminion key proxy option allowing you to request a budget-controlled key directly from us — simplifying the process for administrators.
Find Files You Need—10x Faster
If you’re managing lots of projects on a daily basis, you know that efficiency begins with speed. Our new data tag indexing method delivers just that: the updated search function allows you to increase search speeds by up to 10x, even for large catalogs.
This means you can quickly locate needed digital assets—like high-resolution images for editing, 3D models for a game development project, or a video file for an upcoming marketing campaign—in seconds, keeping your workflows on track and your deadlines within reach.
Note: Activation is required to enable this feature.
