Cineverse Unveils cineSearch for Business
Cineverse, an advanced entertainment studio, has recently made waves in the digital landscape with the launch of
cineSearch for Business, an innovative AI-driven solution aimed at transforming how content is discovered across streaming platforms and digital services. This revolutionary tool is now available for commercial licensing through various channels, including the Google Cloud Marketplace.
Cineverse has harnessed cutting-edge technology to create cineSearch, which has been specifically designed to enhance user engagement and streamline content discovery. Previously in beta, this advanced tool has now evolved thanks to the expertise of Cineverse's engineering team and collaborative efforts with leading tech companies. At its core, cineSearch utilizes a proprietary dataset called
cineCore, which includes meticulously collected metadata that significantly improves search quality and relevance for viewers.
Addressing Industry Challenges
In the era of content saturation, one of the significant challenges facing streaming services is the difficulty users face when searching for desirable content. With an average viewer spending over ten minutes to find something to watch, and a staggering 20% abandoning their search, cineSearch provides a necessary solution by offering personalized recommendations that cater to users' moods and preferences rather than solely relying on keywords.
By connecting various factors such as viewing history, saved watchlists, and current trends in content, cineSearch enhances the discovery process, ultimately leading to higher user retention rates and increased revenue potential. The statistics are promising; testing indicates that cineSearch can cut search time by up to 90% and possibly improve revenue by 24% per month, addressing a key issue that has persisted in the streaming ecosystem.
Features of cineSearch for Business
Among the standout features of cineSearch are:
- - Improved Metadata and Sorting Algorithms: Covering over two million titles, the enhanced algorithms leverage new AI-generated metadata for optimal search functionality, enabling cineSearch to make smart recommendations tailored to individual user preferences.
- - Behavioral Data Integration: cineSearch utilizes data from viewers, such as past ratings, to enhance future recommendations while solving the cold start problem for new users.
- - Unified Search Capabilities: Users can receive personalized search results with direct links to content available on over 60 streaming platforms, streamlining their viewing experience.
- - Customizable Chatbot: The integrated chatbot named Ava can interact with users via text or voice, facilitating an intuitive search experience.
Tony Huidor, Cineverse's President of Technology, emphasized the intent behind the creation of cineSearch: to make the process of deciding what to watch as enjoyable as the content itself. He notes,
