MediaLayer

MediaLayer Enterprise

Enterprise Media Search Platform

Index large image, video, and audio libraries, then search one asset against millions to detect duplicate, reused, modified, or related media at scale.

The problem

Duplicate and reused media are hard to detect at scale

Platforms with millions of media files cannot manually detect duplicates, reused creatives, or copyright-risk content. Pixel hashes miss near-duplicates. Manual review does not scale.

  • Duplicate uploads across accounts and surfaces
  • Reused ad creatives across campaigns and buyers
  • Copied product images and listings on marketplaces
  • Copyright and content reuse risk in user-generated content
  • Manual review queues that don't scale with volume

The solution

One-to-many media matching for large-scale platforms

MediaLayer Enterprise fingerprints your media library and returns the closest matches for any query asset — designed for workflows where the public two-URL API would require millions of comparisons.

  • One-to-many image, video, and audio matching
  • Bulk media ingestion via URL, CSV, or ZIP
  • Similarity indexing across millions of assets
  • Top-K match retrieval with confidence scoring
  • Batch and real-time query workflows
  • Sub-second search latency at scale

Key capabilities

Built for enterprise media matching engines

One-to-many matching

Match a single media asset against millions of indexed records.

Multi-modal similarity

Image similarity, video similarity, and audio fingerprinting workflows behind one platform.

Search across millions

Scalable architecture designed for low-latency lookup across large media collections.

Bulk ingestion pipelines

Index large batches of images, videos, and audio files via streaming or bulk APIs.

Match confidence & ranking

Return similarity scores, confidence labels, and ranked top-K matches with metadata.

Private deployment options

Hosted, VPC, or private deployment available for enterprise compliance and sovereignty needs.

The Search Platform

The Search Platform interface

Index your media library, run similarity searches, manage API keys, and monitor usage — all from one dashboard.

* Search latency targets indexed queries under normal load; actual performance varies by library size, media type, and plan. 10M+ asset capacity available on Enterprise — published plans support up to 500K images, 1,000 hrs audio, or 500 hrs video.

How it works

From ingestion to ranked matches

  1. 1

    Ingest media assets

    Stream or bulk-upload your reference catalog by URL.

  2. 2

    Extract fingerprints

    Per-medium fingerprint extraction — image hashes, frame fingerprints, or spectral peaks depending on media type.

  3. 3

    Build searchable fingerprint index

    Fingerprints are stored in an optimized index that keeps lookups fast across large media libraries.

  4. 4

    Query with new media

    Submit a single image, video, or audio file and request top-K matches.

  5. 5

    Return ranked matches and metadata

    Each match comes with similarity score, confidence label, and aligned segments.

1-to-N Search Engine

How MediaLayer finds matches

Every query runs through a four-stage pipeline — fingerprinting, signal decomposition, distributed index scan, and confidence scoring.

Use cases

Where MediaLayer Enterprise fits

Ad-tech creative audit

Find reused or duplicated ad creatives across campaigns, advertisers, and media libraries.

Marketplace spam detection

Detect copied product photos and duplicate listings at scale across seller accounts.

OTT & UGC platforms

Public API vs Enterprise

Two surfaces for two stages of adoption

The public API is built for developer exploration and small workloads. Enterprise is built for production-scale matching against indexed catalogs.

Public API

Public API access is distributed exclusively through RapidAPI. Subscribe to a plan, copy your x-rapidapi-key, and call the two-URL endpoints.

Enterprise direct API

Enterprise direct API access — private endpoints, custom keys, custom rate limits, and VPC or private deployment — is available only after onboarding. Talk to MediaLayer AI Labs to get started.

Enterprise pricing

Custom pricing for large-scale media workflows

Enterprise pricing depends on dataset size, query volume, latency requirements, ingestion needs, and deployment model.
