“Veenome: The future of interacting with video is here . CEO Kevin Lenane talks
about Veenome's amazing product for identifying video and the endless
possibilities for tagging, recommending and selling the products that you see.”
“Veenome's Kevin Lenane showed off some of our favorite new tech: the company's
video scanning algorithm, which specifically identifies objects in a video so that,
let's say, you can actually buy the super hot shoes you see on your favorite prime-
time shows.”
“Just six months after video technology firm Veenome got its start, a crop of angel
investors have given the District-based company their blessing in the form of a
$500,000 seed investment.”
“Veenome: The Future of Video Meta-data. The same way Google added value to the
Internet ecosystem by better indexing and searching text-based content, DC-
based Veenome is pushing the envelope with video content.”

/PRODUCT
The
Veenome
API
returns
video
objects
as
tags
at
the
specific
*me
in
which
they
occur
with
no
work
required
on
your
part.
We
can
also
output
rela*onal
data
in
the
form
of
categories,
relaying
how
much
of
any
one
thing
appears
over
the

of

—
a

that
renders
the
contents
of
the

clickable
for
click-‐to-‐buy
and
click-‐to-‐
share
within
the
video.
And
it’s

with
the
most

on
the

—

and
more.

major broadcaster
Problem:
Broadcasters
produce
huge
repositories
of
un-‐
or
under-‐indexed
video
that
is
difficult
to
search,
costly
to
manage
and
whose
revenue
poten*al
is
capped.
Solu*on:
The
Veenome
API
automa*cally
transforms
the
en*re
library,
including
unpublished
ouFakes
&
b-‐roll,
into
an
ac*onable
dataset
that
immediately
enables
greater
internal
&
external
SEO,

and
opens
previously

to

online publisher
Problem:
Big
or
small,
publishers
compete
to
produce
&
curate
great,
relevant
content
for
their
audience,
but
need
more
&
beFer
ways
to
increase
and
mone*ze
them
without
impeding
the
user
experience.
Solu*on:
With
the
Veenome
API
and
customizable
JavaScript,
micro-‐bloggers
to
whole
publishing
houses
can
deploy
interac*ve
video
with
embedded
e-‐commerce
and
social
features.
This
not
only
creates
a
more
compelling
user
experience,
but
a
more
discoverable
one,
too,
since
the
videos
are
now
discoverable
based
on
their
content.
Further,
publishers
can
leverage
tags
as
keywords
for
sale
to
ad
networks,
driving
up
relevance
and
commanding
higher
rates.

Video Platform
Problem:
Technology
plaQorms
for

want
to
increase

for

but
face
costly
challenges
in
SEO.
Solu*on:
The
Veenome

provides
5

per

These

are
rendered
as

to
fundamentally
increase

as

as
to

video,
leading

costly

inefficient

advertising
Problem:
Brands,

third-‐party
analy*c
firms
have
built
billion-‐dollar,
data-‐driven
businesses
on
inner
contents
of
Web

But
the

from

remains
an
unknown,
untapped
resource
that

Solu*on:
The
Veenome

enables
a

for

where
none
previously

We
return

back

on
any

they
