AI-Powered Features

Asset Loadout uses cutting-edge AI vision models to analyze your assets and automate tedious organization tasks.

Multi-Provider AI Support

Choose the AI provider that works best for your workflow. All providers support vision analysis for both audio (via spectrograms) and images.

Anthropic Claude

Recommended

Excellent at analyzing audio spectrograms and understanding sound characteristics. Great attention to detail for metadata generation.

Haiku 4.5 (Fast)Sonnet 4.5 (Balanced)Opus 4.5 (Powerful)

OpenAI GPT

Excellent for image and texture analysis. Strong at understanding visual content and style classification.

GPT-4o Mini (Fast)GPT-4o (Balanced)GPT-4.1 (Powerful)

Google Gemini

Cost-effective multimodal AI with strong performance. Good balance between quality and price.

2.0 Flash (Fast)2.5 Flash (Balanced)2.5 Pro (Powerful)

Cost tip: Use "Fast" models for batch operations and quick analysis. Use "Balanced" for daily work (recommended default). Use "Powerful" for the highest quality metadata generation.

Audio Analysis via Spectrograms

Asset Loadout generates visual spectrograms of your audio files and sends them to AI vision models for analysis. This allows AI to "see" the frequency content and temporal characteristics of sounds.

AI-Generated Metadata

Descriptive Filename

snake_case suggestions based on sound content

Example: "heavy_metal_door_creak"

Folder Path

Optimal categorization suggestion

Example: "SFX/Impacts/Metal"

Natural Description

Detailed explanation of the sound

Example: "A creaking metal door with low-frequency grinding"

Game Use Cases

Suggested scenarios for use

Example: "Horror atmosphere, dungeon entrance, old building"

Mood & Emotion

Emotional qualities of the sound

Example: "Tense, ominous, unsettling"

Intensity Level

Volume/energy classification

Example: "Medium" (low/medium/high)

Category

Type classification

Example: SFX, Music, Ambient, Voice, UI, Foley

Similar To

References to well-known sounds

Example: "Silent Hill ambient sounds"

Image & Texture Analysis

AI vision models directly analyze your images to understand content, detect texture types, and suggest optimal organization.

AI-Detected Properties

Content Description

Natural language description of what the image contains (e.g., "Weathered brick wall texture with moss growth")

Texture Type Detection

Automatically identifies base color, normal map, roughness, specular, AO, height, emissive, and metallic maps

Seamless/Tileable Detection

Detects if textures are seamlessly tileable for use in 3D environments

Style Classification

Identifies art style: photorealistic, stylized, pixel-art, hand-painted, low-poly, etc.

Searchable Tags

Generates descriptive tags for easy searching (e.g., "stone", "medieval", "outdoor", "rough surface")

AI Reorganization Agent

The most powerful AI feature: a multi-step agent that can scan an entire directory, analyze all files, and reorganize everything intelligently. Available in both Library view and Browse tab.

From Library View

Select files or folders in your Library, right-click → "Reorganize with AI". Uses your library's existing folder structure as context.

From Browse Tab

Navigate to any folder on your system, right-click → "Reorganize with AI". Opens a configuration modal to customize the process.

Configuration Options (Browse Tab)

When initiating reorganization from the Browse tab, a configuration modal lets you customize the process:

Root Folder Name

Set a root folder name (e.g., "Assets") or leave empty to organize files in place.

Asset Types

Choose which asset types to include: Images (PNG, JPG, WebP, TIFF) and/or Audio (WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC).

Include Subdirectories

Toggle recursive scanning to include all files in subdirectories or only the selected folder.

Output Preview

See a preview of the expected folder structure before running (e.g., Assets/Images/Textures/..., Assets/SFX/Impacts/...).

How the Agent Works

  1. 1.Scan: Recursively finds all audio/image files based on your configuration
  2. 2.Analyze: AI analyzes each file via spectrograms (audio) or direct vision (images)
  3. 3.Decide: Only moves files that need reorganization - well-named files in appropriate folders are left alone
  4. 4.Execute: Creates folders, renames files to snake_case, and moves them to logical categories
  5. 5.Report: Shows a summary of all actions taken with a complete log

Example Output Structure

Before:

After:

Impacts/metal_hit_heavy.wav

Footsteps/gravel_step_01.wav

Ambient/forest_birds_loop.mp3

Images/

Textures/brick_wall_diffuse.png

Smart behavior: The agent uses snake_case naming, handles duplicates with _01, _02 suffixes, and preserves file extensions. It won't move files that are already well-organized.

AI Usage & Cost Control

You have full control over when and how AI is used. Analysis is cached in the database, so you never pay to analyze the same file twice.

On-Demand Only

AI only runs when you explicitly trigger it. No automatic background analysis.

Cached Results

AI-generated metadata is saved to your local database. Re-importing files won't re-analyze them.

Batch Operations

Analyze multiple files at once during import to minimize API overhead.

Your API Key

You pay directly to AI providers - no markup. Monitor your usage through their dashboards.

Typical costs: With Fast models, analyzing 100 audio files costs approximately $0.50-$1.00. Balanced models cost ~$2-4 for the same batch. Powerful models cost ~$5-10 but provide the highest quality metadata.
