Watch the Video

The media business is driven by hunches and analog data systems. AlphaNetworks is building a data-driven solution that empowers creators to build their audiences and business, and gives audiences new sources of high-quality programming.

To accurately record real interaction with content, AlphaNetworks uses a “Proof Of Engagement” (POE) algorithm which records every view of every video on the blockchain, and determines and executes a direct payout to the content provider. This payout is proportional to the amount of viewership they have aggregated, relative to total network-wide viewership.

When recorded on a blockchain, our views are completely anonymized. The system builds valuable but anonymized demographic and consumption data, allowing AlphaNetworks to optimize the experience of each viewer, creator and sponsor.
