ZANUS AI FOR BROADCASTING & MEDIA — RIGHTS & CUSTODY

Built like the archive is the business.

Decades of footage, licensing contracts, talent agreements, unaired material: a media library is an asset and a liability at once. The answer is architecture: permissions to the field level, server-side redaction, a searchable audit trail, and an on-premises option where the archive never touches the internet.

Get started

Private tenant or your own servers · unlimited users · your archive stays yours

Granular per-user permissions for station roles

One record per user: role, tags, and granular permissions over every domain of the system.

What it does

Need-to-know, enforced

The server redacts what a role cannot see — the intern searching the archive sees the aired material their role allows, not the unaired rushes or the talent contracts.

Every access, on the record

A searchable log of every audited action, with configurable categories: who pulled what clip, who changed what metadata, when.

Your archive, your walls

Five-level workgroups map stations and departments; the on-premises option puts the whole system — archive included — inside your building, air-gap capable.

The rights question that takes minutes, not weeks

When the question comes — from a licensor, a lawyer or your own business office — the answer is a search away: the contract, the usage history, the access records, all in one place. Automatic pre-update snapshots mean even a mistaken change can be rolled back.

Media software is priced by storage tier and edit seat, and archive search still means metadata fields someone typed in 2009 — while the producer needs the exact quote before the 6 PM rundown locks. Zanus AI: the content itself transcribed and searchable to the second, click-to-play timestamps from every search result, unlimited users — and the archive stays in YOUR tenant, training nobody else’s model.

Questions, answered

Where does our archive live?

In your isolated tenant — never training outside models — or fully on-premises on hardware the station owns, physically incapable of internet exposure.

Can it enforce rights restrictions?

Libraries carry handling rules and permissions to the field level, so restricted material only surfaces to authorized roles. Your rights workflow specifics are reviewed during onboarding — bring your business-affairs lead to the demo.
