Our mission
Our vision for founding Cadmore Media was born out of a broad ambition to transform the dissemination of video and audio content in the scholarly and professional world through expert technology. In addition to creating our own products, we aim to facilitate industry-wide innovation by leading industry efforts to shape and promote best practices and standards, thus benefiting any organization or service whose purpose is to publish or structure research and professional information.
Our technology
Cadmore professionalizes the treatment of media assets in research and professional communication, both by bringing in fast-evolving technology and expertise from the wider streaming media world and by applying proven publishing “tricks” to video and audio assets – including extensive metadata, persistent IDs, full-text search, subject tagging and segmentation. Our integrated streaming media platform combines the latest streaming technology with metadata models, workflows and content partners specifically designed and selected for publishing organizations, enabling them to disseminate content that is fully discoverable, navigable, accessible and integrated with all other research and professional outputs including journals, books, conference proceedings and datasets.
