Commercialization

  • The video value chain comprises several multi- billion dollar markets and is growing strongly

  • It is bloated with costs and inflexibility through the eight steps from recording to audience playout

  • Linius has an impact at every stage and fits within current revenue models in each case

==> picture [307 x 307] intentionally omitted <==

Starting with Four Multi-Billion Dollar Markets

Personalized Advertising $193 bn Worlds first to deliver personalised ads to Cable TV Personalized advertising average of 2.7 x the revenue per ad vs. nontargeted

Search Anti-Piracy $82 bn $22 bn Currently, 80% of the $22 billion p.a. of world’s Internet traffic box office revenue is video. lost to piracy Linius can search the Linius has an end to content on a granular end solution level never before dreamed of

Security and Security & DefenceDefense $22 bn Linius could potentially cut the time to take action on a threat from hours or days to minutes

Anti-Piracy – end to end solution

The Linius Video Vitualization[TM] Engine will prevent piracy by:

  • Countering industrial espionage and hacking during production/post-production processes

  • Making sniffing the stream impossible

  • Controlling copying and redistributing of the file subject to each specific clients’ business rules/needs

  • Facilitating screen scraping management that allows forensic traceability to the exact origin

  • We are particularly interested in the anti-piracy solutions Linius are developing and are actively working together with Linius to introduce its technology to industry leaders to reduce global piracy.

Rob Kirby, CEO of Village Roadshow

Revenue Model: License plus cost per play

==> picture [82 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

15

Personalized Advertising

No two streams ever need be the same again:

  • Internet style, data driven, individually targeted advertisements in all forms of TV

  • No limitation on timeslots – run a personalized ad in a contextually relevant slot

  • No limitation on format – integrate advertising into the content

  • No Ad blockers in OTT – there is no channel change

  • Own the data – disrupts current monitoring industry

Revenue Model: License plus cost per ad served Revenue share on ad revenue

==> picture [82 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

16

Hyper-personalized Search

Video Search is ineffective. Search results are essentially lists of videos.

Linius turns video into data exposing the entirety of the video content library to the users down to the individual frame. This gives users limitless opportunities to find the content they are looking for

  • Linius can search within videos and present specific relevant pieces of videos as search returns

  • Hyper-personalized search results represent huge value creation

  • Billions are being invested in Cognitive AI tools such as Watson and DeepMind - These tools analyze and learn about video

  • Linius can use this analysis to create personalized videos on the fly

  • Users are able to stitch together elements of videos that meet their search criteria providing a rich search experience. Better search experience means greater monetization.

Revenue Model: Cost per search. Revenue on AI / 3[rd] party margins

==> picture [82 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

17

Security and Defense

Dramatically improved Speed to Actionable Intelligence

  • Proactive surveillance that can help identify threats to be stopped before they happen

  • Immediate distribution of high value video surveillance content among disparate agencies and actors

  • Better enable agencies and authorities to identify and avert threats

  • Turns video analysis into actionable intelligence in minutes instead of days

Municipal, State, and Federal governments, defense and intelligence agencies can finally begin to use the petabytes of data they’re creating, from satellites to body-cams

Revenue Model: License plus cost per search

==> picture [82 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

18

IBM Partnership

Linius can sell established IBM Bluemix products integrated with VVE to speed delivery time for customers

  • IBM can sell Linius VVE, enabling new revenue opportunities across all four target verticals

  • The IBM partnership provides

  • a market model that matches our clients needs: cloud, private, hybrid-cloud

  • proven Bluemix applications

  • over 300,000 employees to help go to market in the large enterprise

  • an existing client base that includes the “who’s who” of Linius’ prospects

  • IBM is a world leader in blockchain technology - Linius’ technology makes what IBM has even better

  • IBM Watson is a world-leading cognitive AI. Linius monetizes this intelligence to create hyper-personalized video experiences in search, personalized advertising and security and defense applications.
