This article walks you through the steps to enable AI Metadata in your Zype account and get your first metadata generated. The process takes about 5 minutes to configure.

Before You Begin

• You must have admin access to your Zype CMS account.
• AI Metadata generation requires AI Transcriptions to be enabled. You can enable both at the same time.
• AI generation is a usage-based feature. Review the Usage & Billing section of AI Metadata Settings to understand how costs are measured.

Step 1: Navigate to AI Tools

1. In the Zype CMS Dashboard, click AI Tools in the left navigation menu.
2. The AI Tools hub will open, showing cards for AI Metadata, AI Transcriptions, and AI Translation.
3. If AI Transcriptions is not yet enabled, click Enable AI Transcriptions first. AI Metadata requires transcriptions.
4. Click Enable AI Metadata.

Step 2: Configure AI Transcription Settings

AI Transcriptions powers the source data that AI Metadata uses. After enabling:

1. Navigate to AI Tools → Manage AI Transcriptions.
2. Set the Model to Base (default) or a higher-accuracy model if needed.
3. Toggle Automatically AI Transcribe Videos to ON if you want all new uploads transcribed automatically.
4. Optionally configure Text Replacements to correct brand names or terminology in transcripts (e.g., “Zy pe” → “Zype”).

Step 3: Configure AI Metadata Settings

1. Navigate to AI Tools → Manage AI Metadata.
2. In the About Your Brand section, enter your Brand Description & Editorial Guidelines. Describe your brand voice, content categories, and any style guidelines the AI should follow. This context is applied to all AI metadata generation for your account.
3. In the Metadata Generation section, select your AI Model. The default is Amazon Nova 2 Lite.
4. Optionally add Reference Videos (up to 5). These are example videos whose metadata the AI will use as style and tone references.
5. Use the field toggles to enable or disable generation for specific fields: Titles, Friendly Titles, Descriptions, Short Descriptions, Keywords, and Genres.
6. Click Enable AI Metadata to activate.

Step 4: Generate Your First Metadata

Once enabled, you can generate metadata immediately:

• Go to any video in your Library and open the Details tab.
• Click the yellow AI Generate Metadata button at the top of the Video Details section.
• Review the generated values and click Save Changes.
