Dynamic CPeS Calculator for Real-Time Ad Rotations

When an LED ribbon can flip creatives in seconds, every visible moment becomes tradable inventory. This post shows how a live Cost-per-Exposure Second (CPeS) feed transforms static perimeter boards into real-time revenue engines — letting rights-holders throttle or accelerate rotations mid-match, meet contractual screen-time promises, and unlock programmatic-style pricing. From the computer-vision APIs that verify each logo to the control hooks that adjust pacing on the fly, discover the architecture and boardroom playbooks that turn stadium LEDs into data-driven profit centers.

Scoreboard OCR Meets Logo Metrics: Context Matters

Scoreboard OCR Meets Logo Metrics: Context Matters

Sponsors don’t pay for minutes on screen — they pay for moments. This post shows how reading the live scoreboard with OCR and fusing it with logo analytics turns generic “screen time” into impact time tied to goals, timeouts, penalties, and late-game drama. You’ll see why context changes valuation math and how three board-ready KPIs — Impact-Adjusted Exposure Seconds (IAES), moment-filtered vSOV, and impact-adjusted CPeS — defend rate cards, reduce make-goods, and shift spend to higher-yield assets. We outline a pragmatic rollout: start with ready APIs (OCR, Brand Recognition, Image Anonymization), prove pricing lift on a short pilot, then add custom rules for your league and workflows. The outcome is a moment-based sponsorship product backed by audit-ready evidence — and a clearer path to ROI.

From Highlights to ROI: Annotating Sponsor Moments

Sports highlights don’t just drive views — they can prove sponsorship ROI. This post shows how auto-tagging the exact seconds when a goal and a sponsor logo share the frame turns highlights into commercial evidence. Editors receive ready-made, brand-sorted clips with Screen Time baked in for instant social; commercial teams get standardized KPIs — vSOV, Exposure Score (area × position × clarity), and Cost per Exposure Second (CPeS)—to price, defend, and optimize deals. We outline a pragmatic path: assemble fast with ready vision APIs (logo recognition, OCR, anonymization), then tailor models for your venues to cut costs and lift accuracy. The result is faster distribution, cleaner make-goods, and board-level proof that turns highlights into revenue.

Heatmap Analytics: Where Fans’ Eyes—and Logos—Meet

In the new era of sports sponsorship, visibility is no longer enough. The true value lies in capturing and measuring the exact moments when fans’ eyes — and their attention — land on a sponsor’s logo. By combining AI-powered logo detection with advanced attention heatmaps, rights-holders and brands can finally quantify “hotspot” exposure and turn it into a single, actionable metric: Exposure Score per Dollar. This data-driven approach is rapidly transforming how stadium inventory is priced, how sponsorship contracts are negotiated, and how every second of attention turns into tangible ROI. Discover how heatmap analytics are moving sports marketing from impressions to intention — and giving C-level executives the tools they need to outpace the competition.

Real-Time Dashboards: Logo Metrics in the Broadcast Truck

Producers can’t optimize what they can’t see. This post shows how real-time dashboards in the broadcast truck turn sponsorship from a next-day report into a live, revenue lever. Using low-latency, edge-AI pipelines, we push Screen Timeand visual Share of Voice (vSOV) to tablets in under two seconds — so directors can rebalance LED rotations, cue lower-thirds, and protect rate cards during the game. You’ll get an executive blueprint for the on-truck architecture, the quality-weighted metrics that stand up in negotiations, and a pragmatic build-vs-buy path that combines ready services — such as a Brand Recognition API — with targeted customization. The outcome: fewer make-goods, stronger auditability, and mid-game yield management that compounds across a season.

vSOV Showdown: Benchmarking Brands Across Leagues

vSOV Showdown: Benchmarking Brands Across Leagues

In today’s sponsorship economy, logos are more than just symbols on jerseys or billboards — they are measurable assets that can make or break multimillion-dollar deals. The challenge? Traditional metrics like “exposure seconds” don’t tell the full story. A logo on the NBA Finals broadcast isn’t directly comparable to one on a UEFA Champions League pitch. Without normalization, executives risk comparing apples to oranges, leading to costly misallocations.

This post explores how normalized Visual Share of Voice (vSOV) transforms sponsorship reporting from raw screen time into a reliable, cross-league benchmark. By applying AI-powered computer vision, audience weighting, and context-based scoring, marketers can finally measure sponsorship ROI with the same rigor as financial investments. For CMOs, CFOs, and CEOs alike, normalized vSOV is emerging as the new currency of global sports sponsorship — turning brand visibility into a strategic advantage.

Camera-Angle Math: Maximizing Sponsor Screen Time

In modern sports sponsorship, visibility is no longer guaranteed by logo placement alone — it’s dictated by camera angles. A logo that dominates the main broadcast may vanish in drone shots or sideline replays, leaving millions in potential value unseen. To solve this, forward-looking sponsors and rights-holders are turning to multi-feed video stitching and AI-powered analytics that measure exposure across every angle and platform. By tallying true screen time, share of voice, and exposure clarity, executives gain auditable metrics that transform negotiations, justify ROI, and protect brand integrity. The future of sponsorship valuation is clear: camera-angle math is now boardroom math.

Screen-Time Pricing: From Guesswork to CPeS

Screen-Time Pricing: From Guesswork to CPeS

For years, sponsorship and media rights have been priced on impressions — a model that overlooks how long a brand is visible, where it appears on screen, and whether audiences even notice it. As budgets tighten and scrutiny intensifies, this approach no longer satisfies boards, investors, or sponsors. Enter Cost per Exposure Second (CPeS): a next-generation metric that transforms every visible second of brand presence into a verifiable asset. Powered by AI-driven exposure scoring, CPeS enables executives to negotiate with precision, justify premium rates with evidence, and align sponsorship spend with measurable outcomes. The shift marks a turning point where transparency and accountability become the foundation of sponsorship value.

Visual Share-of-Voice: The New Sponsorship KPI

In 2025, marketers are searching for share of voice more than ever, yet traditional metrics fail to reflect what truly matters — what the audience actually sees. Visual Share of Voice (vSOV) is the next-generation KPI that measures sponsorship exposure second by second, translating on-screen logo presence into a precise percentage. Powered by AI-driven logo detection, vSOV enables executives to benchmark sponsorships across leagues, defend budgets with data, and negotiate contracts with confidence. For C-level leaders, it’s not just another metric — it’s the future standard for accountability and strategic advantage in sponsorship investments.
