Verdict
An enterprise marketing-work-management platform with a bundled, AI-tagged DAM, for large brand organisations able to staff a multi-month rollout and a budget well past the list price.
An enterprise brand-asset DAM built for controlled distribution to many consumers of assets, that needs a permanently staffed administrator and slows down on large files.
An image and video API for real-time resizing, compression, and format conversion via URL parameters, built for developers at ecommerce, media, and agency teams.
An open-licence, self-hosted DAM for teams with in-house server admin capability, trading a free licence for the time to run upgrades, tune dependencies and troubleshoot it themselves.

Modular packages, quoted per customer
Consumption-based credits, sold in monthly tiers ($25–$500/mo self-serve, custom above that). Credits are spent on Management (2 credits/GB/month for stored assets), Delivery (1 credit/GB bandwidth), and Transformation (variable by operation). Per-credit rate drops as plan tier rises ($0.25 down to $0.12, monthly billing; slightly cheaper on annual commitment). Each plan also states an implied storage/bandwidth cap in GB.
Self-hosted: no licence fee. Hosted: a user ceiling per tier

Most common complaint
A modular line-up means the total is assembled from several unknowns
No figure anywhere on the pricing page, so the order of magnitude is unknowable before a call
Not checked
The free route is genuinely free of licence fees but moves hosting, upgrades and support onto you
