My First Impressions of Content Genie
When asked to test Content Genie before launch, I expected a quicker AI search tool. What I got was something far more powerful. I uploaded an 18-page brief—complete with boards, notes, and casting specs—and within minutes, Genie delivered curated, licensable content organized by concept. The speed, precision, and depth of understanding was jaw-dropping. It’s free, it’s fast, and it’s built to make creative curation easier than ever.
What Is a Brand Library (and Why Every Brand Needs One)
Every brand today is a storyteller—and for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, that story moves fast. With visuals scattered across platforms and licensing rights slowing them down, AJC needed a better way to organize, reuse, and scale their creative content. Partnering with their agency Dagger, they turned to Catch+Release to build a Brand Library: one central, rights-cleared hub that keeps creativity flowing and campaigns moving at the speed of culture.
