Apace Systems Launches DataManager Panel for Adobe Premiere at IBC 2026, Unlocking Edge-Based Agentic AI Search Across Massive Archives

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Powered by the on-premise gStor AI turnkey solution, the native UXP integration delivers secure semantic search, zero token costs, and instant timeline assembly across petabyte-scale archives.


AMSTERDAM - IBC 2026, September 3, 2026 - Apace Systems Corp., a leading innovator in high-performance media storage and workflow solutions, today announced the launch of its DataManager panel for Adobe Premiere.

Built on Adobe's modern Unified Extensibility Platform (UXP) and powered locally by Apace's gStor on-premise AI storage servers, DataManager transforms petabytes of dormant archival footage into an active, instantly accessible editing resource.

By shifting advanced multimodal video analysis and agentic search directly onto local, GPU-accelerated gStor appliances, Apace eliminates third-party cloud subscription fees, data egress charges, and unpredictable token costs. The result is a fixed-cost, enterprise-grade AI infrastructure that keeps customer media and metadata securely within the facility.


Key Highlights

  • Native Adobe Premiere UXP Panel: Operates as a responsive, lightweight panel within the Premiere workspace, allowing editors to query, preview, and drag matching multi-angle clips directly onto their active timeline without switching applications.
  • Edge-Based Multimodal Semantic Search: Performs fast, edge-accelerated searches across people, visual objects, scenes, spoken dialogue, and on-screen text, eliminating the need for manual tagging and metadata entry.
  • Agentic AI for Massive Media Data: Context-aware AI agents analyze project prompts, scripts, or rough-cut gaps to autonomously recommend and assemble relevant archival footage across petabyte-scale storage environments.
  • Strict Data Privacy: Media assets, proxies, transcripts, and metadata remain within the facility. No customer data is transmitted to public clouds or used to train third-party models.
  • Fixed-Cost "All-You-Can-Eat" Model: Eliminates recurring per-minute and per-token fees with predictable, unlimited on-premise AI processing.

Executive Statement

"Data is a key part of the media production workflow. By bringing agentic AI search and recommendations directly inside Adobe Premiere through UXP, we are empowering editors to instantly tap into petabytes of historical media without sending frames to a public cloud or paying unpredictable token fees," said Dr. Lee Hu, CEO of Apace Systems.

"Modern post-production teams should not have to choose between advanced AI and data privacy, or face unpredictable cloud usage costs. We make your entire dark media archive visible and usable, directly from the Adobe panel to your timeline."
