Cineverse Technology Group Launches Matchpoint™ 3.0 with New Features, Brand Identity

, /PRNewswire/ -- Cineverse Corp (Nasdaq: CNVS), a next-generation entertainment studio, has today launched Matchpoint™ 3.0, the newest version of the Company's proprietary, state-of-the-art, automated media supply chain platform that is radically changing the way video content is managed and delivered. This comes with the launch of a new brand identity, seen now at www.matchpoint.tv, updating and modernizing the UI's look-and-feel, making it easier-to-use for customers. Matchpoint Logo Trusted by top studios and streaming platforms, Matchpoint is leading the evolution of digital media content distribution. With the upgrade to v3.0, it adds additional high-level support across platforms, enhanced business insights through conversational analytics, enhanced advertising support and more, with extensive AI-powered automation across its Blueprint, Dispatch and Insights products. The results: more efficiency, cost-savings, less errors, added value for customers that enables operations staff to spend less time on rote tasks and more on bigger-picture strategic initiatives. "I have said this before but it bears repeating, we built Matchpoint to streamline the streaming supply chain, by reducing time to market and reducing costs. For the past ten years, video delivery has been a brute-force, error-filled, expensive process. Our company was delivering 30-50 movies a month on average and spending $1.4 million a year via external vendors. Today, we can easily ingest and master 15,000 movies in any given month," said Tony Huidor, Cineverse's President of Technology & Chief Product Officer. "The fact is that none of the major studios and streaming providers can come close to that level of efficiency, needing hundreds of staff to deliver merely hundreds of titles per month. With a team of only 15, Matchpoint can deliver at an exponentially higher rate by leveraging AI and automation, supporting deliveries to more than 125 platforms. Surprisingly, a lot of media companies are still utilizing processes developed a decade ago." Key New Features Included with Matchpoint 3.0 Matchpoint Dispatch delivers digital media content fast and flawlessly—no human intervention required. A fully automated media supply chain, Dispatch can ingest, validate, master, and package thousands of assets for delivery to hundreds of platforms with a few clicks, so teams can focus on more important things. Additions to Dispatch with v3.0 include: Delivery to the leading FAST playout platforms via native support for Broadcast Exchange Format (BXF), a standard developed by the Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers (SMPTE); Robust support for multi-tenancy; Enterprise level scheduling via any scheduling platform that supports BXF; AI-based QC and delivery of 4K video formats; External API integrations for creating AI-based contextual tags for metadata enrichment; AI-based workflow for removing title treatments from movie posters/key art; AI-based opening title and end credit cue point creation; Automated title takedown module and life cycle tracker; Unified user management system, Single Sign On, and more. Matchpoint Blueprint allows customers to create premium, scalable apps for mobile, TV, or the web in a few clicks.
