Digital Asset Management on Your Own Cloud Storage

Every other DAM is where content goes to live. ZDAM is where content goes to work.

Catalog, secure, and index millions of files in storage you own, whether Wasabi, AWS S3, or Google Cloud. Then put them to work: search by tag or metadata, route through approval workflows, and ship through branded portals.

Who it's for

Built for Asset-Heavy Teams

If your work lives in thousands of files, ZDAM was built for you.

Media & Entertainment

Footage, stills, key art, and press kits

Find the exact moment in hours of footage. ZDAM transcribes audio and video for full-text search, and holds key art and press kits behind embargo dates until release day.

Retail & eCommerce

Product shots, lifestyle sets, and seasonal catalogs

Keep every channel on the current shot. AI auto-tagging labels images as they arrive, version control keeps one hero version per product, and duplicate detection stops the same photo piling up.

Advertising & Agencies

Campaign creative, client brand kits, and approvals

Run every client and campaign in its own space. Campaign workspaces keep assets, approvals, and access separate, and branded portals deliver finished work under your client's name.

Higher Education

Campus photography, lecture media, and archives

Give every department one searchable library. Sign in with your campus identity provider, search lecture recordings by what was said, and protect archives with scheduled integrity checks.

Government

Public records, communications, and retention schedules

Meet records obligations without manual tracking. Retention schedules send assets to a review queue, never an automatic delete. Disposition needs named sign-off, and provenance fields lock at ingest.

B2B SaaS

Product screenshots, launch assets, and sales decks

Ship launches with the right version everywhere. Keep screenshots current with version control, share launch kits through one branded link, and pull assets straight into Slack, Chrome, WordPress, and Canva.

What Makes ZDAM Different

Not another file locker. A platform built for teams that need real control over digital assets.

STORAGE · 01

Bring Your Own Storage

Connect Wasabi, AWS S3, Google Cloud, or any S3-compatible provider. Your assets stay in your buckets. No vendor lock-in.

AI STUDIO · 02

AI-Powered Intelligence

Auto-tagging, AI descriptions, OCR, and a full image generation studio with Gemini and DALL-E 3. Multi-provider, not locked to one vendor.

REALTIME · 03

Real-Time Collaboration

WebSocket-powered presence, live processing updates, instant notifications. See who's viewing an asset right now. No refresh buttons.

WORKFLOW · 04

Approval Workflows

Multi-stage workflows with delegation, escalation, deadlines, recall, and resubmit. Threaded comments with @mentions. 7-channel notifications.

PORTAL · 05

Branded Portals

6 access modes, custom domains with auto SSL, full branding control, visitor analytics, and upload submissions. A dedicated SPA, not an embedded view.

PLUGIN · 06

Plugin Ecosystem

Chrome side panel, Adobe InDesign & Photoshop, WordPress media library, Canva sidebar, Google Drive sync, Slack, Teams, and Google Chat.

STAND OUT · BYOK

Bring Your Own Keys

Use your own AI provider accounts instead of ours. Connect your Amazon Bedrock, Google Gemini, or Anthropic API keys, and every AI feature, from tagging to descriptions to generation, runs on your credentials, your rate limits, and your bill. Your prompts and assets never route through a shared ZDAM key.

New · ZDAM Flows

Design Your Operations on a Canvas. Let Them Run Themselves.

ZDAM Flows is visual, no-code automation built directly into your DAM. Draw the rules once: tag it, get it approved, watermark it, notify the right person. Every asset that flows through your library then follows them automatically. No brittle API glue. No data leaving your platform.

Loved by Creative Teams

Publishers and agencies run their whole creative workflow on ZDAM.

An Integral Part of Our Workflow

“ZDAM has become an integral part our workflow, and is an essential organizing tool used across our five publications and multiple websites. We've worked with the team at Zenplex to optimize the user experience for our workflow and needs and enhance performance.”

A Hybrid Solution Built to Scale

“About half of our users never touch the interface, they upload right from their machine using Resilio. The application as a whole is our creative server. We are fully integrated to ZDAM and the cherry on top is the support we receive from the ZDAM team. They help us build workflows and are always available at a moments notice. We finally have a single solution for our entire workflow.”
