Connect Brandfolder to your AI client once. After that, you can grab direct file URLs just by asking.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How do I get direct CDN links for my brand assets?

Tell your AI which asset you need, and it will find the high-resolution URL for you. It pulls the specific file links directly from your Brandfolder folders. You'll get the exact URLs needed for web or print use.

Where your assets land.

Direct access to files.

The AI handles the searching and link extraction so you don't have to browse folders manually.

URL

Direct CDN links

The AI finds the specific file URL for the asset you requested. You get a link ready to paste into your code or design tool.

FILES

High-res attachments

It identifies the correct file versions within an asset. You get the specific attachment links for the high-quality files you actually want.

LIST

Asset inventory

The AI scans your Brandfolder structure to find what matches your description. It maps out the available files for you to choose from.

HUMAN

Manual verification

You decide if the retrieved link is the correct version for your project. The AI provides the data, but you make the final call on the file quality.
