Exhaustive data collection process A flexible nomenclature was defined for 3+ Lakh behaviors to be collected from across VOOT platforms (such as Android & IOS Apps, Desktop web and Mobile web). Further, MAVARiC was integrated with internal analytics and consumer enrichment initiatives across teams at VOOT. This helped synthesize data of logged-in users (70% of VOOT DAUs), data on engagement with content & ads on the platform and data inferred from VOOT’s internal machine learning algorithm for inferred demographics, interests etc. This was enabled through automated batch transfer process and product integrations.

End-to-End automated management of viewership data To enable continuously up-to-date segments leveraging 50,000 hours of content and 40 hours of new daily content on VOOT, a script-based automation was developed to manage and organize large volume of data in a scalable hierarchy. This seamlessly enabled 700+ audience segments.

Enable insights for advertisers To enable quick turn-around on key learnings for advertisers, VOOT developed a script for automated generation of templatized insights from Audience Profile Reports and DMP Insights reports.
