About Phraseanet
Phraseanet is a digital asset management platform for teams and institutions that need one place to store and organize their media. It handles photos, videos, audio, PDF files, and Office documents, making it suited to assets used across communication, events, and product work rather than just a personal photo collection.
Metadata is central to the system, with thesaurus and DublinCore mapping to keep large catalogs consistent, and an Elasticsearch engine for fast search across them. Assets are generated in multiple resolutions, duplicates are detected, and advanced rights management controls who can see and use each item.
Teams collaborate through publications, collaborative editing, and approval workflows, supported by SSO and dedicated interfaces for production, administration, thesaurus, lightbox, and reporting. Plugins connect it to WordPress, Drupal, and Adobe Creative Suite.
