The First Impression
A visually pleasing poster or thumbnail can be the difference between viewers watching your video content or scrolling past. The poster is often the first thing that viewers notice when searching for content, whether it’s through marketing materials, social media, or VOD catalogues, so it is important to make an impact.

Accessed through a web-browser, it seamlessly integrates with your existing tools to ensure there are no disruptions to your current systems and processes.

Increased Speed
Driving engagement to your media can be a challenge, especially when viewers are surrounded by an overwhelming choice of content. Presenting the perfect artwork in a time-efficient manner so it coincides with the launch of your content in multiple regions, is crucial. However, it can be a time-consuming process.
Accurate.Video reduces the time spent selecting and producing your artwork by allowing you to work using proxies. Users can rapidly create posters using proxy content in the browser, removing the limitations of working on standard laptops and improving bandwidth speeds.
Intuitive
Although the satisfaction of your viewers is important, ensuring your workforce is happy with the usability of your editing tools is also crucial. For editing processes to be seamless, users need the ability to quickly select and make editing decisions using an intuitive interface.
