Enrich metadata using AI in Content Lab


About

Metadata Enrichment helps improve your media's metadata to boost content discoverability and engagement. With AI, you can:

  • Automatically generate relevant titles, descriptions, and contextual tags
  • Customize the output with tone, quotes, target audience, and video title prefix
  • Improve how your videos appear in search results and recommendation engines

Generated metadata will override existing data, resulting in the loss of previous metadata.

Enrich metadata with AI

  1. Open Content Lab. For instructions, see Access Content Lab in your Kaltura application.
  2. Click Metadata enrichment.
  3. Provide clear and detailed instructions for your metadata. The more information you include, the higher the chance of achieving your desired outcome.

    Option 1: Manually type your own instructions in the Instructions field.

    Option 2: Click on a preset tag provided below the Instructions field. The Instructions field is populated with that tag and a list of suggestions for additional text instructions displays. Click on one of the suggestions to autocomplete the instructions.

    Option 3: Click on a preset tag. The Instructions field is populated with that tag and a list of suggestions for additional text instructions displays. Instead of clicking on one of the suggestions to autocomplete the instructions, manually type in the Instructions field to complete the text. 

    Preset tags

    • Tone of Voice - Describe the tone of voice with which you would like the metadata to be created.
    • Add Quotes - Include key quotes from the session in the entry description.
    • Target audience - Tailor the metadata to a target audience.
    • Add Title Prefix - Add a descriptor at the beginning of the title.
  4. Adjust the sliding scale with your cursor to define how long you want your metadata to be - Short, Average, or Long. The longer your metadata, the more detailed it will be. Short = approximately 20-50 words, Average = approximately 50-100 words, and Long = approximately 100-250 words.
  5. Select the output language for the generated title, description, and tags. The dropdown includes both Last used languages and All languages.

  7. Once finished, you are prompted to choose a title.

  8. Select a title, then click Continue.
