Bitmovin and ThinkAnalytics Partner to Deliver Intelligent Video Personalization

Bitmovin, a provider of video streaming solutions, announces a strategic partnership with ThinkAnalytics, which specializes in AI-powered data analytics for TV and streaming.

This collaboration sees the integration of Bitmovin’s AI Scene Analysis into ThinkAnalytics’ ThinkMediaAI platform, giving streaming service providers a seamless way to transform raw video into rich, structured metadata that fuels smarter recommendations and deeper viewer engagement.

Bitmovin’s AI Scene Analysis optimizes the viewing experience by helping streaming services unlock a new level of information about an asset catalog that would otherwise take an enormous amount of effort to analyze. The solution uses multi-modal AI to automatically generate valuable metadata that reflects the context of every scene so it becomes instantly more discoverable, reusable, and monetizable.

ThinkMediaAI is an AI-powered platform that unifies audience, content, and metadata intelligence to help video service providers unlock the full value of their first-party data — enabling personalized discovery, enriched metadata, and high-performing advertising across linear, CTV, and streaming environments. The flexible, modular solution uses AI to drive new monetization opportunities across multiple business areas to maximize content value and enhance audience targeting.

Together, Bitmovin’s AI Scene Analysis captures extremely granular contextual information about the content viewers are watching, scene-by-scene. This data is fed into the ThinkMediaAI platform to give a new level of understanding to that content to create precision-targeted experiences such as:

• Increased engagement with Bitmovin’s vertical clipping solution to provide hyper-personalized short form content or up-next trailers from content catalogs.
• Smarter ad placement and targeting with ThinkMediaAI’s contextual advertising and Bitmovin’s intelligent scene-aware ad marker insertion workflow.
• Scene-based discovery for search and recommendations boosting discovery and unlocking hidden value in content libraries.

For example, by combining AI Scene Analysis with ThinkMediaAI, the enriched metadata and personalization can enable next-gen viewing experiences by creating highlights, micro stories and snackable content that match younger viewing habits, drive stronger engagement and unlock more value from content catalogs.

“Video providers are looking for ways to stand out in a crowded market. With AI Scene Analysis feeding into the ThinkMediaAI platform, we’re helping operators unlock the full potential of their libraries, making content easier to find, more engaging to watch, and more valuable to monetize,” says Jacob Arends, Senior Product Manager of Playback and AI at Bitmovin.

“The future of TV and streaming are being redefined by deeper intelligence — understanding every frame of content and every moment of audience behavior. By integrating Bitmovin’s AI Scene Analysis into ThinkMediaAI, we’re enabling service providers to deliver hyper-personalized experiences that drive engagement and revenue,” says Chris McGuire, SVP Product at ThinkAnalytics.
