Earlier this year, Digitalsmiths and zeebox worked together and launched Digitalsmiths Seamless Discovery, a personalized video discovery service across all of zeebox’s supported platforms, in the United States. Now, building off its success, the two companies are bringing the service to the United Kingdom and Australia.
Digitalsmiths Seamless Discovery will enable zeebox users in the United Kingdom and Australia to experience the "Recommended For You" feature that delivers personalized recommendations based on individual viewing behavior. Users will also have access to the "Similar Shows" feature allowing them to discover related content that is most similar to the show currently being watched, previously viewed content or a program available in the future.
Created by leading multichannel video programming distributors, consumer electronics manufacturers and second screen applications, Digitalsmiths Seamless Discovery is the most comprehensive video discovery platform powering personalized search, recommendations,social discovery, mood discovery and sports discovery. Seamless Discovery also delivers a suite of business management tools for providers to strategically control and personalize video offerings.
Jason Forbes, EVP & Managing Director, zeebox, will be speaking during the upcoming CONNECTIONS Summit at CES in the session, “Monetizing Second-screen Services” on January 7. This session addresses steps to improve the consumer experience, including the challenges in deploying and improving second-screen services, and how content owners, TV service providers, and advertisers can best monetize these services.
