News Releases MediaValet Selected by a National Sporting Association We've been selected by a national governing body for a professional sport association. November 3, 2023 Stephen Midgley Chief Marketing Officer 2 min read Vancouver, BC – November 6th, 2023 – MediaValet Inc. (TSX:MVP) (“MV”, “our”, “we”), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management (DAM), video content management and creative operations software, is pleased to announce the MV DAM was selected by a national governing body for a professional sport association (the “Client”). Commencing in November 2023, with prepaid first-year billings of $115,000, the two-year annually paid subscription includes the MV DAM platform; Audio/Visual Intelligence (“AVI”) engine; CDN Linking; Branded Portals; CI-Hub connector; API access for custom integrations; implementation services; and ongoing training and support.With their sport newly added to the Olympics, the Client relies heavily on its DAM to facilitate a digital content strategy that is visually representative of its exciting and growing sport and community. To do so, in addition to being excellent at image file types, their DAM needs to have best-in-class support for rich video assets. The Client was unable to solve this need with their incumbent DAM vendor, and after completing their diligence, selected MV to be their new DAM of record moving forward.“We’re excited to be off to a good start for our fourth quarter with being selected to support this dynamic and growing sporting community,” commented Rob Chase, President and CEO of MediaValet. “We’ve unseated a competitor largely due to our capability to manage video of the highest definition, including up to 8K, and to the power of our AVI engine.AVI is part of our AI suite, and enriches video metadata with faces, objects and colours, and provides full transcription and translation, complete with tagging to the exact moment in the video. This makes videos searchable in numerous ways – from face recognition to words and phrases, to colours and more. With AVI, our customers can pinpoint the exact moments they want to share and use to build their brands and communities. We look forward to helping our new Client succeed in representing and building their sporting community to its fullest potential.” Stay up to date Check out some of MediaValet's other top announcements!

News Releases MediaValet Announces Sustainability Pledge We have pledged to be carbon neutral by 2025, helping customers attain their carbon reduction goals. September 19, 2023 Stephen Midgley Chief Marketing Officer 3 min read Vancouver, BC – September 19th, 2023 – MediaValet Inc. (TSX: MVP) (the Company or MV), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management, video content management and creative operations software (“DAM”), is pleased to announce that it has pledged to be carbon neutral by 2025, and that the MV DAM itself is already green today and is helping customers attain their carbon reduction goals.“We are passionate about the climate and doing our part to help create a greener future”, commented Rob Chase, President and CEO of MediaValet. “We have long been a low-carbon intensity vendor, and in March of this year, we officially kicked off our ‘HotDAM! for a Cool Climate’ initiative (HD4CC). The HD4CC initiative includes a fulsome assessment of our carbon footprint, a credible plan to becoming carbon neutral by 2025 and a clear understanding of how we are already helping customers with their carbon neutrality goals, today. We estimate that the scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions saved for our 500+ and growing customer base by managing their data in the MV DAM vs on-prem is the equivalent to taking 1,6731,2 cars off the road every year.”Shared Jean Lozano, CTO of MediaValet, “Our MediaValet platform is already green, in large part due to our best-in-class architectural backbone that was built from the start to be highly efficient at scale. This led to many architectural decisions that separate us from the competition – 100% cloud, true multi-tenanted, Multi-File Standard, attribute-based access controls, enterprise security, accessibility, and more – and that have led to us achieving an excellent rating under the Azure Well-Architected Framework, a framework designed by Microsoft to help optimize cloud workloads for green IT. This best-in-class focus also required selecting the right platform partner and we’re delighted to be working with Microsoft.”According to The Carbon Benefits of Cloud Computing: A Study on the Microsoft Cloud conducted by Microsoft Corporation and WSP, the Microsoft cloud is up to 93 percent more energy-efficient than traditional enterprise data centres, in part due to the potential for large-scale purchases of green-power that can help ensure a low carbon footprint.“Operating our digital infrastructure on Microsoft Azure is in line with our ongoing commitment to sustainability,” continued Mr. Lozano. “This decision further enables us to provide a green DAM solution today, without compromising on building an enterprise-class, scalable, flexible and secure DAM.Importantly, no other cloud platform or DAM vendor has come close to the level of commitment and excellence in sustainability that Microsoft has delivered – we are proud to bring this excellence to our customers.”Commented Kathleen Mitford, Corporate Vice President, Global Industry Marketing, “At Microsoft, we have made sustainability a cornerstone of our business.With Microsoft Azure, we are focusing on efficiency gains through architectural and operational design, combined with renewable energy purchases. We are encouraged to see partners recognize and trust us as their platform of choice. MediaValet has embraced these concepts and in doing so has delivered significant benefit to their customers.”Commented Rob Chase, “While we’re already a low-carbon vendor, we have identified numerous operational improvements to further reduce our carbon intensity as part of our HD4CC initiative. Getting to neutrality will still require some carbon offsets, but we recognize that any credible plan must first seek to minimize carbon emissions. The good news is that most of these changes are also good for our DAM architecture, making us more efficient for content at scale and adding more value for customers. We look forward to bringing MediaValet to Net Zero by 2025 and, helping our customers meet their sustainability goals.”1 Microsoft Emissions Impact Dashboard for Azure2 Ostrom Climate Car Emission Calculator3 Microsoft Cloud Carbon Study 2018 Stay up to date Check out some of MediaValet's other top announcements!

(TSX:MVP) (the Company), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management (DAM), video content management and creative operations software, is pleased to announce it was selected by a leader in electric vehicle charging networks (the “Customer”).

Managing digital assets from ideation to creation to distribution to archival and future re-use is a challenging enough task, let alone the added complication of a rapidly changing network and employee base. MediaValet was selected over other DAM vendors for its hyper scalability, unlimited users, AI-assisted video indexing with CDN linking, and extensible API.“Sound digital and business continuity strategies are essential for rapidly growing and changing business environments”, commented Rob Chase, President and CEO of MediaValet. “Working with the right DAM vendor who has the flexibility, security and scalability to be the single source of the truth for digital assets, and who can connect to your staff, partners, vendors and tech stack is a cornerstone of these strategies. Organizations of all sizes are realizing this and are the driving force behind the continued growth in the DAM market – which is creating both greenfield and displacement opportunities for MV.

News Releases MediaValet Selected by a Leader in Insurance We're pleased to announce we've been selected by a U.S. leader in mutual insurance service. July 27, 2023 Stephen Midgley Chief Marketing Officer 2 min read Vancouver, BC – July 27th, 2023 – MediaValet Inc. (TSX:MVP) (the Company), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management (DAM), video content management and creative operations software, is pleased to announce it was selected by a U.S. leader in mutual insurance services (the “Customer”). Commencing in June 2023, with a prepaid 3-year billing total of $194,000, the 3-year subscription includes MediaValet’s enterprise digital asset management (“DAM”) platform; Audio/Visual Intelligence (“AVI”) engine; CDN Linking; connectors for Single Sign-On and CI-Hub; API access for custom integrations; professional services; implementation services; and ongoing training and support.Like many organizations who have adopted work-from-anywhere policies in response to the pandemic, the Customer’s digital strategy has become mission critical. The management of digital media assets can quickly become a fail-point of any digital strategy; a pain point that the Customer’s marketing team realized could be solved with the right DAM partner. Up to now, their image and video content was spread across cloud and on-premise storage solutions which created bottlenecks and consumed valuable marketing resources trying to locate and share content in the right place and format at the right time. The Customer needed a DAM that could better manage their large volumes of assets, integrate seamlessly with their website content management system, and provide valuable usage analytics to evaluate the effectiveness of their content. After an extensive search and an elongated sales-cycle due to macro-factors, they selected MediaValet for its Video Intelligence capabilities (AI Suite), ease-of-use and integration, security and user support.“Digital trends continue to move DAM to the must-have list for all industries and sizes of organizations, including for those in the finance and insurance sector”, commented Rob Chase, President and CEO of MediaValet. “The Customer is one of three new customers in this sector that selected MV this quarter and the segment now represents nearly 5% of our ARR. The three new customers range in size from SMB to large enterprises and from departmental to organization-wide deployments. As a highly regulated industry with intangible products and services, how their offerings are conveyed via digital media is a cornerstone of success. To deliver on their digital needs quickly, effectively and cost-efficiently, they require a DAM that is easy to use, is highly secure, is hyper-scalable and can connect seamlessly with their critical tech stack solutions.”Continued Chase, “We are honored that our product vision and HotDAM! mission is hitting the mark with customers such as these. While deal cycles continue to be lengthy in today’s economic climate, we are encouraged by the continued tailwinds for DAM, and by the fact that these customer wins came directly from our website and marketing campaigns showcasing the value and impact of DAM, the incredible customers we work with and the HotDAM! Moments they achieve by leveraging MediaValet.”About MediaValet Inc.MediaValet stands at the forefront of the cloud-native, software-as-a-service, enterprise digital asset management, video content management and creative operations industries.

News Releases MediaValet Introduces Cutting-Edge Face Recognition AI Technology We're pleased to announce the launch of our new Face Recognition feature. July 19, 2023 Stephen Midgley Chief Marketing Officer 3 min read Vancouver, BC – July 19th, 2023 – MediaValet Inc. (TSX:MVP) (the Company), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management (DAM), video content management and creative operations software, is pleased to announce the launch of its new Face Recognition feature as an annual subscription add-on module for new and existing customers, offering an efficient method to automatically detect and tag individuals within images – enabling a streamlined search process, and deeper protection against asset misuse.MediaValet’s Face Recognition feature natively leverages Microsoft’s advanced AI technology to enhance its customers’ Digital Asset Management (DAM) experience. Once a user has tagged an individual in an image, the Face Recognition feature ingests the data, trains an AI model and uses the model to tag all other images containing that individual within their library, as well as in future uploads.This feature is critical to customers with large-scale image libraries, as it allows them to:Simplify and automate the individual tagging process, which would otherwise be a manual and time-intensive task for administrators;Enable users to easily and quickly find assets that contain specific individuals, streamlining the image discovery and selection process; andEnhance security measures, enabling administrators to better manage access controls and usage rights for images containing individuals.Over the past five years, MediaValet has released a full suite of AI features using its Cognitive Metadata Framework. This Framework, developed by MediaValet, ensures that AI is implemented in a way that enhances organizations’ DAMs, without causing disruptions to its core metadata. Specific features include isolating AI-generated tags from human-generated metadata; enabling users to choose whether or not to search using AI tags; and allowing high-confidence AI tags to be converted into core metadata. This approach has enabled MediaValet to bring high-value AI features, such as Audio/Video Intelligence and Face Recognition, to the market in a way that better drives productivity for customers and differentiates it from alternative options.“We’ve invested heavily in building an industry-leading AI suite that drives immense value for our customers,” Rob Chase, President & CEO of MediaValet, shared. “We’re thrilled to launch our latest AI offering, Face Recognition, to help our customers further unlock additional efficiency gains with their DAM. With a full suite of AI capabilities at their fingertips – including face recognition; object, color and text recognition; video transcription and translation; and time-stamped video tags – our customers can use MediaValet to accomplish their best work yet. Customers are also able to leverage our AI suite to curate asset collections and share them with Gen-AI tools in a secure and rights-protected manner to unlock further efficiency gains in their creative process – a feature that, like Face Recognition, we expect to integrate natively into our DAM in the future as we continue to develop our AI suite of services.”MediaValet is committed to ethical implementation of this technology, and to incorporating strong safeguards, transparent policies, and individual rights protection. We have designed our solution to provide customers robust protection of assets, data, and information, and have aligned with Microsoft’s responsible AI practices, covering safety, accountability, privacy, security and more.”“Face Recognition technology plays an indispensable role in empowering organizations to manage their large libraries more efficiently, but it’s critical to implement this technology in a way that’s ethical and protects our customers,” explained Jean Lozano, CTO of MediaValet. “We will continue to build our AI capabilities using the same responsible AI principles operationalized by Microsoft to unlock new capabilities for DAM users while retaining our commitment to privacy and customer trust.”Register for our upcoming webinar, Unlocking the Power of Face Recognition, to learn more about why this feature is critical to organizations and see it in action.
News Releases MediaValet Selected by a Global Leader in Audio Experience We've been selected by a world leader in audio product design, development, and manufacturing. May 23, 2023 Stephen Midgley Chief Marketing Officer 3 min read Vancouver, BC – May 23rd, 2023 – MediaValet Inc. (TSX: MVP) (the Company), a leading provider of enterprise digital asset management, video content management and creative operations software (“DAM”), is pleased to announce it was selected by a world leader in audio product design, development, and manufacturing (the “Customer”). Commencing in May 2023, with first-year billings of $190,000, the auto-renewing subscription includes MediaValet’s enterprise digital asset management (“DAM”) platform; Audio/Visual Intelligence (“AVI”) engine; CDN Linking; connectors for Azure Single Sign-On module, Office 365, CI-Hub; API access for custom integrations; and implementation services and ongoing training and support.The Customer has been on a company-wide digital transformation journey that has enabled them to become a true disruptor in their market. Together with Microsoft, and other leaders in digitization, they completely reimagined how they do business by taking a digital-first and automated approach throughout their entire value chain – design, development, manufacturing, and customer delivery and support. In 2021, they went live with their transformation which has streamlined their operations and significantly reduced overheads and inefficiencies in the manufacturing process to create a purpose-built sustainable and high-value-to-customer operation that is unrivalled in their industry.Digital asset management is a foundational component for their complete vision to truly be a digital entity and to realize the full value of their strategy. However, their incumbent, traditional enterprise DAM was not able to meet their cutting-edge DAM requirements. Accordingly, their team conducted extensive research into the highest-rated DAM vendors in comparison to the shortcomings of their incumbent DAM. Based on their review, they requested a demo as an inbound lead and selected MediaValet for its Microsoft ecosystem, unrivalled customer support, innovative features, ease-of-use and hyper-scalability.“We are inspired by this Customer’s journey and are honored to have been selected as their DAM of record”, commented Rob Chase, President and CEO of MediaValet. “They recognized that digitization is a critical success factor for their business, invested in cutting-edge technology, and put that technology to use in the fullest extent of its capability. A best-of-breed DAM is critical for managing high-value assets, particularly in global product design and manufacturing environments, and we’re humbled to be selected as a trusted partner in support of their digital transformation. To us, this reinforces the importance of building a cohesive digital strategy, the critical need to be excellent at managing your digital assets and content, and the ability of MediaValet to meet the needs of the most demanding customer environments.”Continued Mr. Chase, “This is also encouraging given the current macro-economic environment, as the Customer went from an inbound lead to a new customer in less than 70 days – a juxtaposition from our sales cycles in Q1. Part of this is due to our HotDAM! vision, informative marketing approach and partner ecosystem. Our Microsoft strategy and integration partner, InterOperate (“IO”), were also influential. IO will be leveraging our API to connect MediaValet with their Product Lifecycle Management system – a critical component in a company with an extensive, global, and highly technical product portfolio. This also reflects the emerging opportunity we see in disrupting legacy enterprise DAM solutions that struggle to meet the ease-of-use and cutting-edge needs of today’s enterprise-use-case demands for DAM.”About MediaValet Inc.MediaValet stands at the forefront of the cloud-native, software-as-a-service, enterprise digital asset management, video content management and creative operations industries.
