Fotoware

Fotoware is a Norwegian software company with more than 30 years of experience building Digital Asset Management (DAM) and Content Operations platforms.

The first product was released in 1994, serving as a solution for photojournalists handling large volumes of images under deadline, and setting the groundwork for how media professionals still manage photos today.

Fotoware develops solutions in close partnership with its customers, solving the problems they have rather than the ones a roadmap assumes.

More than 850 organisations rely on Fotoware, ranging from museums & archives to law enforcement & defence agencies, to media & entertainment companies, and other large corporations that need fast content workflows and dependable content compliance.

Fotoware is headquartered in Oslo, with a strong presence across Europe, and a global network of customers and partners.

Key features for media:

• Supports all standard metadata formats and allows for custom fields and hierarchical taxonomies.
• Build sophisticated image workflows with Fotostation – connected seamlessly to the DAM – offering a 360 view of all assets, offline access, and advanced customization.
• Ensure consistent publishing by automating file formats and color space conversion, ICC profile tagging, image resizing, output dpi setting, and more to efficiently prepare images for distribution.
• Auditing is made easy – you can stay in control of thousands of files and oversee all your system events, easily monitor logs and usage data, and create royalty reports.
• Increase the efficiency of your content distribution with easy upload, FTP transfer, an open API, and a comprehensive mobile app.
• Collaborate on visual content in one central hub – add annotations or notes to images and share larges batches of files with external users in seconds!
• Stay on top of image rights and licenses and create workflows to automatically revoke content when the licenses expire.
• Scale to your needs – you can develop your content ecosystem as you grow, adding users, increasing storage, implementing AI-driven auto-tagging and integrating with new systems whenever you’re ready!

Our solution can run in a way that suits you – SaaS, On-premise, or Hybrid.

Fotoware's commitment to innovation and excellence makes us a trusted partner for media organizations looking to enhance their digital workflows and improve their content management capabilities.
