IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Stream Engine today launches the world’s most comprehensive Artificial Intelligence service to measure and analyze brand recognition and sentiment across streaming and OTT platforms, the company announced.

Stream Engine is a new industry standard in determining the true value that brands derive from advertising and on-screen exposure. Its Complex Vision, Voice Detection and Chat Sentiment tools actively monitor and analyze audio and visual brand impressions, as well as brand sentiment, across the universe of streaming and OTT platforms. Stream Engine then provides brands with accurate, real-time data and analysis to enrich decisions faster and more informed than ever before.

“The distribution of live and recorded content is no longer centralized as consumers continue to customize their engagement through OTT subscriptions and streaming services,” said Stream Engine CEO Ed Kiernan. “We have designed an AI platform that measures the collective impact across streaming media for the first time, ever. We do more, we do it better and we do it faster.”

A recent Nielsen survey of U.S. adults found that 91 percent of all respondents subscribe to a streaming video service. Overall, 30 percent of U.S. consumers subscribe to three or more video streaming services. Until now, brands had to contract with multiple measurement services and attempt to combine them in order to derive a return on investment from streaming advertising.

“Brands and media buying agencies rely on outdated metrics to inform modern consumption habits,” said Stream Engine CFO Ethen Yao. “We are measuring vision, voice and sentiment through one service, providing brands with a single source of data and analysis that makes for more informed decisions.”

Stream Engine’s Complex Vision, Voice Detection and Chat Sentiment are all contained under one roof, which allows for real-time data and analysis delivered via a user-friendly dashboard.
