Customer Story
Challenge:
The AP needed to be able to collect, enrich and distribute the content of its 1,500 members that would enable a new set of business offerings, while requiring minimal effort from its members. Issues related to large-scale content ingestion, aggregation and enhancement needed to be solved.
Solution:
Connotate helped the AP automate their content ingestion and aggregation processes and create a new source of revenue. More than 75% of the AP’s Digital Cooperative content now comes through Connotate-powered solutions. Connotate collects information and metadata, applies contextual information and sends it to a database where it is normalized and indexed.
Result:
Connotate has addressed an essential yet previously unfulfilled piece of the solution architecture for the AP’s Digital Cooperative and in the process created a new revenue stream.
Testimonial:
“Connotate has allowed us to automate a tedious, time-consuming process with an enterprise class solution for content detection, extraction and acquisition. This has dramatically increased the reach, timeliness and accuracy of our news ingestion operation.”
