A Headless Digital Asset Management (DAM) system operates similarly to a headless CMS, focusing on managing and delivering digital assets such as images, videos, and documents.

By decoupling the asset repository from the presentation layer, a headless DAM provides assets via APIs, allowing for integration into various applications and platforms. This flexibility enables organizations to efficiently distribute and utilize digital assets across multiple channels, ensuring brand consistency and streamlined workflows. Implementing a headless DAM supports scalability and adaptability in dynamic digital environments.
