Discovery 1 problem

Discovery is the #1 Problem in Streaming

  • Consumers can't easily find something to watch
  • Money is wasted on rentals & subscriptions when often the content is available for free
  • Streaming channels are lost amongst thousands of competitors
  • Both consumers & channels suffer from too much content, too many apps & too many costs

Universal Search is the Solution

  • Universal search directs a user who is specifically looking for the content in your channel
  • Universal search places your logo next to the consumer's search term
  • Search is on the home page of every streaming video device including Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV, Samsung, LG, VIZIO and many more
  • Each search drives an app install & a video play
  • Billions of searches are taking place every day using voice or text such as SIRI and Alexa
