Built for museums, libraries and archives

Your media, your records and the systems that hold them, in one searchable place. A single search spans the whole collection. Your collections management system and your media library no longer sit apart. One unified taxonomy covers everything. Granular permissions extend across your entire institution.

Mediagraph draws data from your collections management system and your other databases, and can feed it back, so it holds the superset of what your institution knows.

  • Museums

    Collections, exhibitions, facilities and the corporate archive can live in one platform. Easily create custom schemas for every part of your collection. Photographs, documents and records are connected to the objects they describe.

  • Libraries

    Special collections, the publication catalog, digitization projects and the institutional archive can live in one platform. Easily create custom schemas for every part of your collection. Every item can share a common taxonomy.

  • Archives

    Corporate records, oral histories, photograph collections and marketing materials all exist in one platform. Import related data to give every record more context. Each letter, photograph and recording links to the people, projects and events in it.

The images are public domain, from Wikimedia Commons: Adenota leche by Joseph Wolf (1850), a page of Gray’s Catalogue of Ruminant Mammalia (1872), Nakong and Leché from Andersson’s Lake Ngami (1861). The text is David Livingstone’s, Missionary Travels and Researches in South Africa (1857), chapter 3 (Project Gutenberg). The field photograph is Peter Krogh’s; the specimen record is illustrative.

Bring in every kind of media, from any source

Upload photos, video, audio, documents, 3D objects and web links. Import text assets from spreadsheets and databases. Bring in entities from your collections management system. All of it lives in one searchable collection with a unified taxonomy.

Bring in structured data as text assets

Import a database or a spreadsheet and every row becomes an asset in Mediagraph. Columns can be used to generate structured fields describing the asset. Turn a library catalog into a virtual card catalog. Split an article archive into individual articles. Text assets can be searched, gathered into personal collections to share and collaborate with the entire organization.

Create meaningful custom entities

Create meaningful taxonomies and ontologies from any data sources and attach them directly to photos, videos, PDFs and other media. Use your internal data combined with external data to build accurate and actionable metadata entities.

Describe people, events, artworks, objects, publications or define entirely new types of entities.

Single platform for staff, stakeholders and the public

Every record, connected

Context builds a knowledge graph of every link between objects, people, places and events. Follow the thread from any asset to everything connected to it.

The extensible data structure connects to the other places your knowledge lives: your collections management system, your catalog, trusted external sources. It is equally readable by people and machines, including AI assistants through MCP.

Powerful AI under your complete control

Composable AI is your tireless office assistant. Choose the model and write and test the prompts.

Have it summarize documents, audio and video. Extract key concepts. Find linked data. Assign terms from your own taxonomy. All transparent and reviewable.

MCP enabled for admins and general users alike

Ask your collection questions in plain language. Let your AI assistant read your structured records directly through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and answer from facts rather than guesses. Uncover new connections and tell deeper stories about your collections.

Admins can use MCP to clean up and normalize data sets and to relate records from one database to another. Working from structured data makes the AI more accurate, less prone to hallucination and cheaper to run.
