Veritone Launches Conversational Ask Veri Data AI Solution
AI specialist Veritone has debuted Ask Veri, a new conversational intelligence solution that allows Veritone Digital Media Hub users to quickly extract actionable insights and execute dynamic workflows from their media archive data through a generative AI-enabled, chat-based tool.
Ask Veri is an integrated solution on Veritone’s aiWARE platform, and soon will be available across the majority of Veritone’s commercial and public sector applications.
An enhancement for DMH, Veritone’s award-winning media asset management and monetization tool, Ask Veri leverages generative AI to swiftly respond to queries and can provide customers with in-depth analysis, insightful summaries, and key findings for their digital media collection. With Ask Veri, customers can formulate their own questions, such as “What is the trend of monthly user activity, or “Source all available footage of Caitlin Clark during the NCAA tournament,” or use the interface’s intuitive, suggested queries to remove guesswork and provide a starting point for gathering the right content insights.
“With content production and consumption at an all-time high, media professionals face the overwhelming challenge of organizing and activating an abundance of data. Ask Veri leverages Veritone’s industry experience and extensive knowledge base to provide both open-ended and template query prompts for DMH customers,” said Sean King, GM for Veritone Media and Entertainment. “For media professionals who aren’t sure where to start in their content journey, Ask Veri’s versatility in query type can help them quickly make sense of their media asset data and help them stay ahead in the market.”
Ask Veri comes at a time when one of generative AI’s most prominent use cases is content creation. Gartner Emerging Tech: Tech Innovators for AI Generated Content (published Sept. 6, 2023) notes that “By automating the process of generating natural language descriptions of data, organizations are saving time and resources while still gaining valuable data insights.”
Ask Veri streamlines the overall content experience for DMH customers — including TV networks, studios, production companies, and film and studio archivists — by eliminating the need for multiple data analyst resources or reporting tools. As a result, customers can quickly make informed decisions to highlight high-performing content, optimize engagement, and drive value from existing media assets.
King continued, “In today’s fast-paced media landscape, where the content lifecycle is shrinking, Ask Veri is a valuable data exploration and activation ally for media professionals, enabling them to explore, analyze, and comprehend their report data more effectively, identify patterns in media usage, and recognize engagement trends among media buyers.”
Veritone will showcase Ask Veri during the 2024 NAB Show in Las Vegas April 13-17, in booth No. W1642 in the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall.
Ask Veri will be commercially available in the second quarter of 2024.
