VideoKen
|
About us: Millions of informational videos are available on internet, but are highly underutilized due to the short attention span of people. VideoKen is an AI-based platform that makes informational videos rich and consumable. It uses AI techniques to automatically index videos, creating table-of-contents and phrase cloud, which nicely summarizekey topics in a video, and lets viewers jump directly to the topics of interest within a video. It also supports more effective video search (without a reliance on manual tags), lead generation for businesses, and rich insights into video viewing behavior of the target audience.Problem Statement: Videos account for roughly 75% of the internet traffic. Enterprises are using informational videos for employee learning, sales enablement, marketing and internal communication. However, the intended viewers rarely have the time and patience to watch more than a few minutes of these videos. On a related note, although millions of learning videos are freely available, covering practically any topic, it is well known that learners get disengaged very quickly. VideoKen is transforming the way people consume and utilize informational videos, and in the process, also creating value for the organizations creating the video content.Example: Here are some of the sample links that illustrate how hard it is to peer inside and navigate long videos on the popular (and powerful) YouTube platform, and the difference made by AI-based techniques (explained below) in VideoKen.1.
