Snicket Labs today announces a strategic partnership with Memnon, the global leader in
migrating and preserving legacy media content. The collaboration brings together large scale
media digitisation expertise and advanced content intelligence technology to help organisations
preserve, streamline and take control of extensive video archives.
As broadcasters, production companies, cultural institutions and government bodies continue to
digitise valuable legacy collections, many face a growing operational challenge. Once content
has been migrated into modern storage and asset management systems, duplication, version
sprawl and inefficient storage structures can quickly increase complexity and cost. This
partnership is designed to address that issue at source.
Snicket Labs builds content intelligence software for organisations that create, store or distribute
video. Using proprietary fingerprinting technology, its platform identifies duplicate and near
duplicate content at scale, enabling organisations to reduce storage waste and gain clarity
across their media libraries. At the core of the platform is Match, a video deduplication engine
designed to tackle versionitis, the accumulation of multiple versions of the same file across
systems. By identifying both exact duplicates and near duplicates, Match can reduce storage
and operational costs by up to 60 per cent while maintaining full visibility and control.
Memnon works with leading broadcasters, media organisations, governmental agencies and
cultural institutions worldwide, migrating legacy video, audio and film archives into accessible,
discoverable and future-ready digital assets. Its expertise ensures that valuable collections are
preserved, migrated and unlocked for long-term use, helping organisations maximise the value
of their content.
Together, Snicket Labs and Memnon provide a clear route from preservation to optimisation,
ensuring that digitised archives are not only safeguarded but efficiently managed for long-term
value.“Digitisation is only the first step in managing large scale archives. Without a clear
strategy for controlling duplication and version sprawl, organisations risk carrying legacy
inefficiencies into new systems. By working with Memnon, we can ensure clients not
only preserve their most valuable content, but also optimise it from the outset.”
Nick Pearce, CRO, Snicket Labs
“Our mission is to unlock the world’s content, ensuring it is preserved, accessible and
discoverable for future generations. Partnering with Snicket Labs helps us extend that
mission by enabling clients to manage their media assets more efficiently while
maximising their long-term value.”
