History

Vu Digital was founded in 2012 and in 2013 launched its first product, a mobile app named "Vu" that served as a web content aggregator with heuristics, allowing it to improve its aggregation selections based on user preferences.

In 2015, Vu Digital abandoned the Vu app, and shifted focus to its Video-to-Data (V2D) technology. The V2D service uses predictive analytics, natural language processing, face recognition, object recognition, and audio/image detection to extract metadata from video including transcripts of the audio, and time-tagged references to screen text and appearances of persons or images of interest, such as objects or logos.

Vu Video-to-Data (V2D) translates video images and audio to text, affording video producers the ability to tag their content better with metadata making it more searchable. Vu Digital has patents pending for Video-to-Data & Vu Finder.
