Will AI Keywording Get Your Stock Footage Rejected?

0:00Hello my friends. Welcome back in my channel. Do you think the AI metadata it's killing or stock portfolio? Do you think the agency it's it's really making the rejection because we use AI metadata and because many many people is using AI metadata, but what do you think? It is working for us? It's it's helping?

0:27It's we can do everything faster or no? What I found out? Yes, maybe it is possible if you don't check your AI metadata what is done automatically. I always before I upload to agency, I always try to go over every metadata because it's I found out it's many similarity between between the keywords or it's something like ghosting, you know, like it's let's say bench in the park and AI it's writing like like let's say antique furniture outside or something like that. This is definitely wrong and if you see something like that, it's better if you remove. This is not really keyword which

1:22help you with your sale. Also, I found out same when I put some location, you know, images and I try use for editorial for some location, it not it is not really always correct. Sometimes yes, if you have if you have GPS data, but but not always. Still can be some mistake and I this is why I really always try go over and I remove all not really correctly uh corrected sorry no really correctly writing metadata. I always use the the AI metadata like like like my assistant you know this is because I am the chief for everything and I have to make decision what is working for me and what

2:21is not. AI assistant is great because give me the ideas but I always try include it inside also my metadata and special when I am talking about the the location for editorial. Because I am always more correct than AI. I don't know how long this will be but at this moment in 2026 I definitely prefer write my metadata

2:51for editorial the keywording and title. But I also try check suggestion from AI keywording. AI always generate overly poetic title but this is not really working for people for the buyers who is searching for something else. Doesn't matter how nice sound the title from AI this no mean for you it's good title. I prefer really always check everything how I said and I I really I I am telling you you do the same because you will find inside in keywording many keyword what is not really working or is very similar like like you let's say car motor vehicle motorcar automobile you know it's many many similarity, but

3:56but not everyone can work always at specific location that are technical details and unique context by yourself because trust me, you will be much much more correct than artificial intelligence. If you have precise metadata that this is helping the agency search engine to find your your images or or video footage and will be much easier find what buyers are looking for. This mean if you have exactly the right images and right title and key for keywords, it's definitely bigger chance that the search search engine the agency search engine

4:48will find your asset. Maintaining high metadata quality is really great for your portfolio because you will be always on the top for search engine and this mean more sales for you. I know it's nothing special, maybe nothing new, but don't forget in this time we have to be more careful with keywording and with everything and we because they all the agency definitely start using own AI for searching for for keywording and and title for keywording and title and try found

5:39the spamming title or spamming keywords. The final from my side, no, AI it's not really hurting my my portfolio in this moment, but I said, I always check every keywords, and I know it's taking time, but it's definitely better have the right keywords and title than than if you will be uh if your account it's definitely better than if your account it's closed

6:14for spamming. And also, when I'm using Istock Vision or or any photo keywording for title and keywords, I always check everything. And what is easy it you can you have to check everything just one time. Once you check, that's it. You can upload for any agency you want or or for any agency you

6:41are using. And it's still saving you time, but with much larger quality for your portfolio. Thank you very much for watching, and I hope so this short video is helping you, and be careful with your keywording because it's not worth it to have uh your account closed for uh spamming keywords or title or description.

7:11Have a wonderful day, guys. And I will be back with new videos soon.
