21st September 2021, Pinkafeld, Austria and Paris, France – Newsbridge and x.news have teamed up to provide brands, governments and news organizations with a flexible, powerful News and Brand tracking solution leveraged by AI.

The integrated solution combines two cloud-native services powered by AI: Newsbridge’s smart asset management platform and x.news’s monitoring, research and harvester platform. Optimized for speed, flexibility and accuracy, the tag-team technology empowers users with a simple means of monitoring and further analyzing brand and or news topics aggregated from multiple informational sources. From logos, personalities, audio mentions, TV keywords, and more- a variety of asset types (video, image, text, audio) are all supported, ready to be enriched with additional metadata and immediately searchable via Multimodal Indexing AI, with built-in notifications.

From multilingual speech-to-text and face recognition to object, context and logo detection, the algorithm leverages mega-enriched metadata to auto-index content for advanced search and retrieval. All this while providing a systematic media logging and product placement analysis experience for users. After automatically monitoring and analyzing desired content via x.news, this media material along with the script is then harvested into Newsbridge’s Media Hub where it is indexed via Multimodal AI technology, ready for semantic search and cross-analysis of the aforementioned elements.

Once ingested to the Newsbridge platform, content is aggregated into AI-powered Collections, or ever-growing folders of content triggered by various modes of detection: face, logo, speech-to-text, objects etc., allow users to obtain immediate results where your story, personality and brand appears with whom and in what context, working with content quicker and smarter.
