When people first hear about Dalet Flex, they may assume it’s a traditional media asset management (MAM) system, built mainly to store content and manage files.

But Dalet Flex does far more than that.

Across the media & entertainment industry and beyond, teams are using Dalet Flex to power content workflows that you may not expect, but will certainly appreciate…maybe even love. From managing live content as it happens to automating complex content supply chains, Dalet Flex adapts to just about any content scenario and user need.

With the release of Dalet Flex 25.12 LTS, these workflows become even easier to manage thanks to improvements in usability, search, ingest management, and built-in AI services.

While the workflow list is long and wide, we want to highlight three Dalet Flex power moves that show just how versatile the platform can be.

1. Managing Live Content While It’s Being Created

Most media asset management systems treat content as something that gets processed after it has been created and ingested.

Dalet Flex can manage assets while they are being created.

This live catalog management capability allows teams to log, organize, and prepare content in real time, an enormous advantage for fast-paced production environments.

Organizations using Dalet Flex for this type of workflow include:

Sports broadcasters
Sports organizations deal with massive volumes of live content. With Dalet Flex, production teams can catalog feeds, tag clips, and prepare highlights while games are still unfolding.

Theatres and live event venues
Multi-camera performances can be archived as they happen, ensuring every performance becomes instantly searchable for future use.

Live television productions
Broadcast teams can log footage and generate clips during live shows, dramatically speeding up post-show production and distribution.

The new Ingest Portal introduced in Dalet Flex 25.12 further simplifies these workflows by giving operators a centralized interface to control multi-source ingest pipelines and manage ingest resources in one place.

For live production teams, this means faster setup, greater control, and more efficient ingest operations all from a centralized platform that gives you the best of both worlds – live and archives in one place.

2. Automating the Content Supply Chain

Today’s media organizations rarely deliver content to a single destination. The same asset may need to be prepared for broadcast, OTT platforms, social media, and internal archives.

Managing that process manually can quickly become overwhelming.

Dalet Flex simplifies the entire content supply chain through its powerful workflow engine, allowing teams to automate how media moves, transforms, and gets delivered.

Organizations use Dalet Flex to:

• Automatically move media between storage systems
• Enrich assets with metadata
• Generate versions for multiple distribution platforms
• Trigger delivery workflows automatically

When paired with Dalet AmberFin, customers also gain industry-leading transcoding quality and automated content preparation pipelines.

This makes Dalet Flex a critical operational platform for:

Video-on-demand operations
Managing and preparing large libraries for streaming platforms.

OTT distribution workflows
Automating the packaging and delivery of content to multiple streaming services.

Multi-platform distribution
Ensuring assets are delivered quickly and consistently across broadcast, digital, and social channels.

With the performance improvements and backend enhancements in Dalet Flex 25.12, these workflows can scale even more efficiently for high-volume media operations managing everything from social media content to big IMF assets.

3. Running Production and Archive Workflows Together

Production teams need immediate access to new content. Archive teams focus on preserving media for long-term value.

Traditionally, those workflows live in separate systems.

Dalet Flex brings them together by managing the entire media lifecycle from ingest and production through distribution and long-term storage.

Organizations use Dalet Flex to support workflows such as:

Camera ingest and production management
Dalet Flex supports ingest from advanced camera formats and cards, allowing production teams to quickly move footage into editing and collaboration workflows.

End-to-end asset tracking
Metadata and asset history are preserved across every stage of the workflow, ensuring full visibility from creation to distribution.

Automated storage tiering
Assets can move automatically between storage tiers—cloud, hybrid, on-premises, or HSM—based on usage and retention policies.

With Semantic Search now available in Dalet Flex 25.12, teams can also find content faster than ever simultaneously across production and archives using natural language queries, even when metadata is incomplete or inconsistent.

This dramatically improves how teams access and reuse archived content.

Built for Real Workflows…and Getting Better with Every Release

These examples highlight what makes Dalet Flex different.

It’s not just a system for asset tracking, it’s a platform designed to support the real workflows that move content from creation to distribution and archive.

And with Dalet Flex 25.12 LTS, those workflows become even more powerful thanks to improvements across:

• Editorial tools and integrations
• Search and discovery
• User interface design
• Backend processing and ingest performance
• Built-in AI services

Together, these enhancements make Dalet Flex easier to use, faster to operate, and better equipped to support the growing needs of content operations across all markets – multi-network broadcaster, news organization, live sports production, corporate marketer, house of worship, creator economy business and more.
