Our Technology

Affine watches videos so you don't have to

Affine utilizes industry-leading image-recognition software, building a data-rich video classification platform that eats volumes of video for breakfast and tags it for you. Now you know what's in a video, even if you don't have time to watch it.

Scene Classification

Football Game? Video Game? Adult Content? Our Scene Classification Engine maps out regions in the foreground and background, checks against known motion patterns, and identifies video categories with astonishing accuracy.

Facial Recognition

Affine's Facial Recognition technology helps you find almost any personality within a video by acutely identifying patterns within the in-stream video images. This approach allows you to pinpoint specific actors, broadcasters, public figures, and many other industry influencers.

Object Detection

Affine Object Detection technology helps identify a product being used in relevant videos and targets accordingly for retention-style marketing. Sometimes you want to make sure you don't sponsor content containing your competitors' logos. Other times that's exactly what you're after. In either case, Affine gives you the ability to control your brand and maximize organic exposure within the video itself.
