In the world of photo metadata, standards like Exif, IPTC, and XMP define a common language. But sometimes, your organization needs to say more — in a dialect uniquely your own.

News agency tagging embargo status or story urgency
Museum recording provenance, artist info, or conservation notes
Legal firm embedding evidentiary IDs and chain-of-custody flags
Tech company tracking model version, moderation confidence, or internal labels
These aren’t part of the standard fields. But they are critical to your workflows. That’s where custom XMP namespaces come in — and where MetadataAI™ shines.
