TVision is the leader in TV engagement metrics. We measure what was previously unmeasurable - how people actually watch TV. We enable the media industry - advertisers, networks, and technology partners alike - to reduce waste and drive greater and more efficient marketing results.
Utilizing cutting edge technology, TVision goes beyond traditional TV data to include measurement of presence in room, co-viewing and attention, producing best-in-class TV data. This allows us to provide critical data to inform the decision making of a $100B/year industry.
Our growth and innovation have been recognized by The New York Times, Advertising Age, AdWeek, Business Insider, MediaPost, and Forbes. We were selected as a Best Place to Work 2019 by Built in Boston, and were named one of the top companies to watch in advertising technology by Business Insider in December 2019.
Our Product
At TVision, our TV measurement solution starts with real people across the country who opt in to install the TVision Device. This enables us to measure how they really watch TV. The TVision device uses state of the art computer vision and automatic content recognition (ACR) to enable second-by-second and person-by-person level measurement to determine what content was playing on screen, who was in the room, and whether they were paying attention to the content. The TVision Device has the ability to measure regular (linear) TV as well as streaming content from places such as Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, etc. For streaming content, the TVision Device can also determine which streaming device (Chromecast, Roku, etc.) was in use while the content was playing. All of this data is aggregated and reported through several customer platforms or integrated directly into third party systems. Our data powers the decisions made by all of the major TV networks in the US and nearly 100 brand advertisers. There simply is no other TV measurement solution in the market that matches our product.
