Videogami Automates Highlight Reels for eSports Streamers

    TORONTO, ON, October 27, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Startup Videogami launches a new service to help videogame streamers grow their audience, satisfy their sponsors and help fans relive the best moments by automatically creating highlight reels in real-time.

Says CEO Juan Gonzalez, "Since the introduction of Twitch Clips functionality, fan-clipping services such as OddShot and LiveCap have lost much of their market share and usefulness. Anticipating that trend, Videogami invested heavily into R&D to change the game: from relying on fans to determine the best moments to building A.I. tools that understand the entire stream and help the streamer extract the best moments automatically, in real-time. "

Based on technology that has powered hundreds of thousands of hours of live-streaming, Videogami developed a proprietary bot that 'watches' thousands of simultaneous streams, picking out and saving the most promising clips for later. Codenamed 'Prisv1', after our founder's favourite android, the bot analyses audio, visual and social information to pick what she considers the most interesting moments from the live stream.

Pris' AUDIO algorithms rate the perceived levels of excitement in the voice of the host or the e-sport audience. The VISUAL module analyzes the video to determine what kind of content is currently broadcasting (gameplay, interviews, etc) and can even identify certain keywords and stats on the screen. The SOCIAL monitor scans the chat associated with the stream to learn about the most talked about moments.

Simply by connecting their Twitch or YouTube Gaming account to Videogami ( http://videogami.tv/signup ) , streamers will see their best moments clipped in real-time and receive an email with a Highlight Reel as soon as their stream is finished. They can immediately share the best clips on social media for their fans who missed it live.

Streamers with sponsorships and large audiences have long relied on teams of producers and moderators to help them create their highlights reels. With Videogami, small and medium-sized streamers can not only obtain fresh highlight reels of their best moments immediately, but they can also learn from watching the best moments from other streamers. As all clips curated by Prisv1 are rated and ranked, Videogami is able to feature and promote clips from the most exciting streams, not just the ones with the most views.

Coming from incubation in the DMZ Start-up Accelerator and being one of the winners of their Next Big Idea in Sports Competition, Videogami has the team and the vision to take eSports and streaming into a bold and automated future.
