PopScreen Releases the World?s First Video Prediction Engine
Service to Power PopScreen Rating and Recommendation Platform
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PopScreen?,
a leader in viral video monitoring, today announced the
launch of the world?s first video prediction engine. The service
measures the pulse of online videos from thousands of sources
across the
web, including content from major user generated video sites like
YouTube, DailyMotion, and Vimeo, digital networks like Revision3,
Babelgum, and FunnyOrDie, as well as premium content networks. The
engine collects hundreds of thousands of unique data points that
are
processed through a proprietary algorithm, accurately predicting
the
viral lift of a video and identifying popular and newsworthy
content
before it goes mainstream.
?But, it also serves as the
foundation for PopScreen's rating and recommendation platform,
which
provides an online video experience tailored specifically to the
user's
interests.?
"The predictive engine is the backbone of the PopScreen user
experience," said Co-Founder, Kevin Nguyen. "But, it also serves
as the
foundation for PopScreen's rating and recommendation platform,
which
provides an online video experience tailored specifically to the
user's
interests."
PopScreen's video prediction engine will be rolled out on a larger
scale
over the coming months to allow partners across all industries
including
news, publishing, and search, to syndicate predictive data and
provide
their users with access to the most timely and newsworthy video
content
on the web, tailored specifically to their interests.
PopScreen was founded in 2008 by search engine veterans Kevin
Nguyen and
Glenn Gutierrez, who in 2003 launched Zapmeta, a meta search
engine
which processed 25-35 million searches a month and generated over
$15
million dollars in revenue.
