Gracenote e Amagi unem forças para simplificar a entrada no mercado do FAST para editores de conteúdo

Novo acordo entre líderes em enriquecimento de metadados de conteúdo e habilitação de reprodução FAST acelera o caminho para a monetização de conteúdo

NEW YORK – September 26, 2024 – Nielsen’s Gracenote, the leading global entertainment metadata provider, is teaming with Amagi, a global leader in cloud-based SaaS technology for broadcast and Connected TV (CTV), to help content owners capitalize on consumer appetite for free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) services. This collaboration enables Amagi to serve as a one-stop shop for customers, simplifying the process of getting programming onto major FAST platforms and in front of entertainment-hungry viewers worldwide.

Content partners can now access select Gracenote products through Amagi’s channel creation solution, providing a one-stop platform for speedier ingestion of programs and schedules into the Gracenote ecosystem. This integration streamlines FAST go-to-market, allowing for more efficient content management and delivery. It also ensures that publishers’ content metadata is normalized and enriched at the earliest stages of the FAST channel creation process and then quickly passed to Gracenote’s extensive global distribution network. Beyond benefiting from a streamlined process, Amagi customers will also enjoy greater program discoverability on FAST platforms and increased advertising monetization. 

“A FAST representa o próximo capítulo do streaming, e os metadados de conteúdo são o principal impulsionador do engajamento que alimenta essa evolução”, disse Tim Cutting, diretor de receitas da Gracenote. “Nossa colaboração com a Amagi ajuda de forma holística os editores de conteúdo a acelerar a entrada da FAST no mercado, para que possam capitalizar a oportunidade e impulsionar a monetização agora.”

“Our agreement with Gracenote aligns perfectly with our mission to simplify and accelerate content monetization in the rapidly evolving CTV ecosystem,” said KA Srinivasan, Co-founder and Chief Revenue Officer at Amagi. “By integrating Gracenote’s industry-leading metadata enrichment and normalization services into our cloud-based playout and content delivery workflow, we’re enabling content owners to bring their programming to audiences more efficiently than ever before — reducing time to market and enhancing content discoverability across major FAST platforms. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in streamlining the FAST channel creation and distribution process.” 

Este novo acordo entre a Gracenote e a Amagi, líderes em suas respectivas áreas da cadeia de valor do streaming, resulta em uma situação vantajosa para a indústria e os consumidores. Ao facilitar uma entrada mais eficiente no mercado, as empresas aceleram conjuntamente a distribuição e monetização de conteúdo, atraindo mais programadores e melhorando a descoberta de conteúdo nas principais plataformas de streaming. Isso acaba beneficiando os espectadores, que estão cada vez mais recorrendo a serviços gratuitos e suportados por anúncios para satisfazer seu apetite por conteúdo de alta qualidade.

Gracenote will attend Amagi’s LA FAST 2024 conference on October 1. To learn more, go to https://www.amagi.com/events/la-fast.
