End-to-End Content Processing, Delivered Anywhere

Content Meets Intelligent Automation

With the powerful procedural MediaScript language you can automate any number of operations — including metadata extraction and embedding, Adobe PDF rendering, image processing, and video transcoding with intelligent auto-assembly and automatic merging.

Process Content Fast from Any Source

Over 450 image, media, Microsoft Office document, and video file formats are supported. Twenty-plus years of legacy file type support ensures the widest possible file recognition. 64-bit technology enables processing of virtually any file size.

Render Any Language and Deliver Anywhere

Full font rendering and multi-language support means MediaRich Hotfolder can process files and re-render them in any quality. Unzip files, auto-assemble video from multiple sources, and read and convert large Photoshop files for web — including layers and channels.


Mount Folders on Any Desktop

Automate routine content preparation to accelerate any business process:

  • Prepare PDFs and PowerPoint Graphics — Quickly convert and normalize presentation assets for executives and information workers
  • Flatten Photoshop Layers to PNG — Automate eStore graphics updates and publishing pipelines
  • Ingest and Normalize Video — Streamline archiving for social, broadcast, and security video managers

We Wrote the Scripts So You Don’t Have To

Hotfolder ships with dozens of pre-built MediaScripts for the most common processing tasks. Teams familiar with JavaScript can easily create and modify scripts. Up to 20 Hotfolders per CPU core can run in parallel — centralized on a server or distributed across any desktop machine.

Users simply mount the folder they need, then drag and drop original assets in. Results are processed and output automatically — locally, or to any cloud destination.


Available for License or Subscription
