Overview

Enable your viewers to discover their new favorite content

There’s no shortage of content for viewers to watch. But when it comes to discovery, viewers shouldn’t have to get bogged down in endless carousel scrolling. Entertainment providers must deliver a seamless discovery service to viewers, so they can stay engaged and connect to their next favorite program.

Gracenote is revolutionizing how video content is organized and discovered.

Gracenote Video Descriptors, part of Gracenote’s Advanced Discovery suite of offerings, provides hierarchical, rich descriptors with a structured global taxonomy applied across content. The taxonomy provides descriptors across mood, theme, scenario, character and topic, enabling you to connect audiences with fresh and relevant content aligning with their preferences – increasing viewer satisfaction, engagement and retention on your service.

Go beyond genre – Gracenote Video Descriptors provide a multidimensional content classification system. Structured hierarchically and curated by Gracenote’s world-class editorial team, Gracenote Video Descriptors facilitate deeper correlations between content, enabling nuanced discovery surfacing unexpected content, solutions to zero-search results and many more.
