Blackbird announces the release of its first digital asset management functionality within elevate.io. Following the company’s recent successful top-up raise, folders is part of a continual iteration of new feature releases.

Earlier this month elevate․io launched its first AI-powered tool: Text-to-Speech, enabling creators to generate natural-sounding voiceovers directly within their browser. Additionally, users can now access an enhanced suite of looks and effects, to give the creator more visual control. Through this rapid roll out of features and functionality elevate․io is delivering against its vision of ‘The Figma for video’.
The positioning of elevate․io is of the creator champion. In that regard it can reduce costs and time in the creation of quality video by enabling real collaboration, digital asset management in a hardware agnostic environment.
elevate.io is purpose-built for content creators and teams who demand speed, flexibility, and seamless collaboration.
Blackbird Executive Chair, Ian McDonough comments:
“Storytelling through video should be fast, easy and fun with collaboration enhancing the final output. This raft of recent releases takes elevate.io closer to our vision. We are on track with more to come, watch this space.”

Blackbird is best-of-breed
