Assets & Generation

How the assets panel works across upload, search, metadata, transcription, AI generation, templates, components, jobs, and branch-aware media workflows.

Updated April 9, 2026

Asset tabs

The beta assets panel is organized into dedicated tabs:

  • Assets
  • 3D
  • Templates
  • Video
  • Image
  • Music
  • Speech
  • Components
  • Jobs
  • Branches

This means AVS treats generation, media management, and job tracking as part of one integrated surface instead of scattering them across modal-only flows.

Core asset management

The Assets tab supports:

  • Uploading files
  • Searching indexed assets
  • Filtering by asset type
  • Sorting by date, name, or type
  • Renaming assets
  • Updating asset notes
  • Deleting assets
  • Multi-delete
  • Dragging assets into the timeline

Search is content-aware and is backed by richer metadata than a filename-only filter.

Asset types you can work with

The codebase currently recognizes and/or surfaces workflows for:

  • Video
  • Audio
  • Image
  • 3D model assets
  • Screen recordings / Vidova assets
  • Components
  • Templates

Metadata and inspection

Asset workflows also include:

  • Metadata lookup
  • Face capture support
  • Exact still capture from asset timecodes
  • Frame extraction
  • Thumbnail access
  • Notes and annotations
  • Duration resolution

This matters for agent/tool workflows because the AI surfaces can inspect assets before editing against them.

Transcription and analysis

Assets can participate in pipeline-driven analysis. The current code paths include:

  • Transcription start flows
  • Pipeline polling
  • Pipeline state aggregation
  • Job status display
  • Transcript consumption in the transcript editor

When transcription data exists, it can power text-linked editing rather than acting as passive metadata.

AI generation tabs

Video

The video tab is currently wired for Veo-based generation flows. The broader app also includes Veo job polling and result ingestion into the assets list.

Image

The image tab covers Gemini image generation workflows.

Music

The music tab is built around Lyria generation.

Speech

The speech tab exposes TTS workflows.

Components and templates

AVS includes two different reusable-creative surfaces:

Templates

Template assets provide quicker starting points for common visual treatments.

Components

Component assets are custom Motion Canvas components. The product can:

  • create components
  • create components from templates
  • edit existing components
  • attach components to the timeline as component clips

This is a key difference between AVS and template-only editors.

Jobs and branches tabs

Jobs

The jobs tab centralizes generation and processing state, including background pipeline jobs and effect jobs.

Branches

The branches tab keeps media work branch-aware so users can reason about edits in the context of project branches.

Notifications and completion

Generation flows can trigger:

  • asset refreshes
  • completion toasts
  • browser notifications when enabled

That makes long-running jobs easier to work with while you continue editing elsewhere.
