Use cases

  • Rights holder

    As a rights holder, you have an extremely limited view of the exhibition of your works on on-demand services. When it comes to cinema and television, you know precisely the time and place at which your title is being shown but on Netflix, Prime Video and others, you don't even know if it is really suggested to users and if so, to whom. We can help you get access to that information.

  • Studio

    Without visibility data, you know far less about your content’s worth than the VOD service you're selling it to, putting you at a disadvantage during negotiations. You need to know how content prominence works on that service if you want to avoid underestimating the value of what you're selling.

  • Content strategist

    Find out what titles are the most prominent on a given service, for all users or a specific niche. Go beyond catalogue data and incomplete viewership metrics to uncover what truly powers content performance on streaming.

  • Collective management organisation

    Provide creatives with the information they so desperately need. Authors are frustrated by a widespread lack of transparency when it comes to video-on-demand. With visibility data, they can finally know to what degree their work is being shown to users, if at all...

Our story

We are former Sorbonne University researchers who founded Arvester with the aim of taking analytics on streaming to the next level. By constantly innovating, we intend to stay at the forefront of content metrics in not only film and TV, but also the music, video games and press industries.

  • 2020

    We co-founded the Chaire PcEn at the Sorbonne, a research lab funded by third parties, among which Arte, Netflix, Prime Video, the French Ministry of Culture, SACD...

  • 2022

    We developed the first method for measuring content prominence on Netflix, and used it to ascertain whether European titles are visible to users who don't watch them.

  • 2023

    Building on what we learned, we launched Arvester to explore real-world applications for measuring the visibility of content online.

  • 2024

    France's two biggest institutions for film and TV, the Arcom and the CNC, have started to include our metrics in their reports.
