Short answer

How can I manage my Bandwidth media storage using AI?

Your AI can pull a full list of your stored media and delete specific files on your behalf. This lets you clear out old or unnecessary data without logging into the Bandwidth dashboard manually. You'll see exactly how the process works below.

Storage outcomes

What you get from your AI

These are the results of your storage management tasks.

AUDIT

View all files

The AI pulls a complete list of your media assets. You get a clear view of what is currently taking up space.

CLEANUP

Remove old media

The AI deletes the specific files you identify. This immediately frees up your storage capacity.

OPTIMIZE

Reduce storage costs

By removing unused files, you keep your account lean. This prevents unnecessary storage fees from accumulating.

REVIEW

Human verification

The AI won't delete everything at once. You decide which files are safe to remove after reviewing the list.

The workflow

  3. Execute deletion

    The AI sends the command to remove the specific files you've selected.
