Veritone is a US-based applied-AI company founded in 2014 that provides AI-powered media analytics and government solutions for processing audio, video, and other unstructured data. It is publicly traded on NASDAQ under the ticker VERI, and it serves both commercial media clients and government agencies, including law enforcement and federal agencies.
Overview
Veritone's aiWare operating system processes audio, video, and other unstructured data using a library of cognitive AI engines. Tasks performed by these engines include transcription, facial recognition, object detection, and sentiment analysis.
The company operates across two markets: commercial media and government/law enforcement. On the commercial side, its media analytics platform serves broadcasters, advertisers, and content creators with AI-driven content indexing and monetization tools. Its government solutions division provides AI-powered evidence management and intelligence tools to law enforcement and federal agencies. This dual deployment places Veritone in the AI-enabled government solutions market alongside companies such as Palantir Technologies, and its law-enforcement and federal work has drawn questions about AI and Surveillance and civil liberties.
Products
The aiWare platform indexes and analyzes media for commercial clients, supporting content indexing and monetization for broadcasters, advertisers, and content creators. Veritone's capabilities also extend to media authentication and content intelligence, areas relevant to Synthetic Media / Deepfakes. For government customers, the same underlying media-intelligence engines support evidence management and intelligence applications.
