FAQs

Fast Media combines two services: a licensing library (images, video, illustrations, music) and a built-in media manager (DAM) to store, auto-tag, organise, share, and track rights for both licensed and in-house media — all in one place.

To streamline your workflow: discover → license → organise → share → track content without juggling multiple tools or losing metadata.

3-Click 1) Pick content → 2) Choose usage (simple presets) → 3) Checkout securely. A licence document is issued automatically.
