How VuePlanner Works

01. Video data ingestion

We start by processing and segmenting hundreds of millions of videos.

02. Algorithmic scoring

We apply internal algorithms to determine content relevancy, user engagement, and traffic trends over time.

03. Human curation

Through our Collection Builder and Proprietary Taxonomy, our editors match premium, identified content with your upcoming campaigns for contextual relevance. Using VuePlanner’s VueCast forecasting technology, we scale collection inventory to meet your campaign goals.

04. Editorial review

Our editors take additional verification steps to ensure the final URL lists align, and that nothing unsuitable has slipped through the cracks.

05. Seamless integrations

We make it easy to transport the data straight to your preferred Google Buying Platform account.

What’s a VueScore®?

The entirety of YouTube distilled down to four key elements, calculated into one easy-to-understand score to qualify YouTube videos for your campaign – using data from YouTube, machine learning algorithms, and advanced internal Boolean logic.

Our team builds custom video collections within VuePlanner for each YouTube campaign.

Collections are built from targeted positive and negative keywords and phrases and feature highly-relevant content, with each URL assigned a VueScore based on the video’s match rate of the collection parameters.

As engagement and scale potential per video varies, the range of VueScores varies per collection.
