Introduction to Kaltura Agents


About 

Kaltura Agents make it easy for administrators to automate content workflows such as moderation, metadata enrichment, content optimization, and content creation. This improves efficiency, streamlines content management, and ensures consistent quality across the platform.

Agents use AI automation and predefined shortcut actions to trigger workflows based on specific conditions or system insights. This helps organizations maintain control over their content, support smarter decision-making, and deliver more personalized experiences at scale.

Helpful terms and definitions

  • Kaltura agent framework - the rule-based automation system that uses triggers and actions to manage and optimize content workflows.
  • Agent - a rule-based automation entity that listens for specified triggers, evaluates conditions, and executes actions accordingly

What admins can do with Agents

As the platform administrator, you can:

  • Configure new Agents by defining triggers (e.g., “low engagement”) and actions (e.g., “optimize metadata”).
  • Deploy workflows to specific teams, channels, or categories.
  • Monitor agent performance and results via dashboards.

Before you start

  • Your account must have Agents enabled
  • If you want to use REACH-based actions (such as captions, moderation, audio description, chaptering and metadata enrichment), your account must have an active REACH profile and relevant catalog item(s) configured.
