Key features
Two ways to make your media more discoverable and valuable
Video Intelligence API
Video Intelligence API has pre-trained machine learning models that automatically recognize a vast number of objects, places, and actions in stored and streaming video. Offering exceptional quality out of the box, it’s highly efficient for common use cases and improves over time as new concepts are introduced.
Video Intelligence allows CBS Interactive to plug into our existing video encoding framework to generate video metadata. The performance and reliability allows us to enhance the video experience.

Use cases
Use cases
Content moderation
Identify when inappropriate content is being shown in a given video. You can instantly conduct content moderation across petabytes of data and more quickly and efficiently filter your content or user-generated content.
Recommended content
Build a content recommendation engine with labels generated by Video Intelligence API and a user’s viewing history and preferences. This will simplify content discovery for your users and guide them to the most relevant content that they want.
Media archives
Create an indexed archive of your entire video library by using the metadata from Video Intelligence API. Ideal for mass media companies, Video Intelligence API can automatically analyze content and make the results immediately accessible via the API.
