Elevate your visuals with Cacoo’s Media Finder 

Ever felt like sourcing images for your project is a major distraction from the project itself? Jumping between different tabs, downloading images, and trying to add them to your canvas can feel like a huge time sink. Not to mention worrying about licensing and attribution. 

This is why we created Cacoo’s new Media Finder feature, which lets you find the perfect images, GIFs, and icons without leaving your canvas. Designed to streamline the process of adding visual elements to your diagrams and flowcharts, Cacoo’s new Media Finder makes diagramming faster and easier and minimizes distractions — so you can stay in the creative zone.

Cacoo has always been about empowering teams to work better together. With the new Media Finder, we’re doubling down on that mission by removing the roadblocks to creativity and collaboration. 

What is the Media Finder?

The Media Finder allows you to search for high-quality images, fun GIFs, and customizable icons — all without leaving Cacoo. No more juggling tabs, downloading files, or worrying about attributions; we’ve built everything into one seamless tool. This means more time spent designing and collaborating with your team and less time hunting for visuals.

How it works

Cacoo’s Media Finder is a user-friendly tool that puts everything you need at your fingertips. Here are some of the new features:

Search for media: Simply open the Media Finder from the new Media Tool icon and search for any image, GIFs, or icon of your choosing. The results will instantly appear as a gallery-style mosaic, and the same search term applies across all tabs (GIFs, icons, images) if you switch between them.

Insert with a click: Found the perfect visual? Simply click on it, and it’ll be added directly to your canvas. No need to worry about extra steps like downloading or switching between tabs.

What makes Media Finder a game-changer?

Let’s talk about why the Media Finder is a game-changer for diagramming:

Save time: Say goodbye to jumping between tabs and apps. Media Finder keeps everything you need within reach, letting you focus on your design, not the hunt for visuals.

Boost creativity: With access to Unsplash and Giphy’s extensive image libraries, you’ll have no shortage of inspiration for making your projects pop.

Enhance collaboration: Working with teammates on a diagram or presentation? It’s easier than ever to find and insert relevant visuals, keeping your project flowing smoothly.

Recently used media: Another time-saving perk — anything you add from the Media Finder is saved in the “Recently Used” section, so your favorite visuals are always just a click away.

Attribution built-in: When you hover over images from Unsplash or GIFs from Giphy, you’ll see credits and links to the original creators. We’ve taken care of the legal details, so you don’t have to.
