AI in Media and Entertainment for more personal, relevant content

Audiences now reach media through more channels than ever, and they expect content that fits them. AI is already used in media for personal recommendations, news editing assistants such as fact-checking, and news flow optimisation. We build the models that let media companies understand their audiences and serve them individually.

  • Content recommended to each user individually
  • Audiences segmented from your own data
  • Editorial work supported by AI assistants
  • 57% of our team hold a PhD
  • German company, working under the GDPR

What you gain

What AI changes in media

AI makes media more personalised and differentiated, and changes how companies relate to their audiences.

Individual service at scale

With data mining and micro-segmentation, media can serve individual requests quickly and become an information source on the user's request, not only an intermediary.

New audience relationships

Media can act proactively (personalising content without a request), reactively (through recommendations) and passively (through voice assistants).

Higher engagement and lifetime value

Recommendations based on consumption patterns increase the diversity of content users consume and help reduce churn.

What we deliver

AI solutions for media companies

Use cases we see across TV, radio, podcasts, publishing and digital media.

  1. 01

    Personalised recommendations

    Collaborative filtering, item-to-item and hybrid recommenders that learn each user's consumption patterns and content preferences.

  2. 02

    Audience micro-segmentation

    Data mining that groups consumers into clusters, so you can target each group with the content it is most likely to enjoy and estimate demand for specific content.

  3. 03

    Topic discovery and content tagging

    NLP modules that tag content automatically and measure how similar items are from different perspectives.

  4. 04

    Custom information products and subscriptions

    Subscriptions that deliver a requested finished product and specific information products built around what each user asks for.

  5. 05

    News editing assistants

    Assistants for editorial teams, such as fact-checking support and news flow optimisation.

  6. 06

    Protection of authors' identity

    Registration of a journalist's personal brand, voice and appearance, so their uniqueness cannot be replicated to package and distribute content.

  7. 07

    Audience and social media analytics

    Analysis of audience interests, demographics and group affiliation to shape offers, service packages and marketing activities.

Not sure which of these you need? Describe the problem and we will recommend the approach.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

What results can a media recommendation system deliver?

For a media company with TV and radio channels, podcasts, magazines and newspapers, our recommendation system increased the diversity of content consumed by users by 5%, which raised customer lifetime value. It also let the company identify groups of similar consumers and estimate demand for specific content.

Can one system handle very different content types?

Yes. The same system can recommend TV programmes, shows and news articles, because it combines user consumption patterns with content similarity assessed from several perspectives.

What data do we need for personalisation?

Mainly how users consume your content and the content itself. From these, models estimate each user's preferences, topics of interest and the devices they use to access content.

Can AI support editorial teams, not only audiences?

Yes. Typical examples are fact-checking assistants, automatic tagging of content and news flow optimisation, which take routine work off editorial teams.

How do you start an AI project in media?

We begin by agreeing the business goal, such as engagement or churn, and checking the available data. The project then follows a lifecycle in which each phase has its own goals and quality criteria that must be met before the next stage starts.
