Veritone’s global licensing service utilizes its AI platform to enable marquee sporting and news rights holders worldwide to more efficiently and effectively archive and monetize their video rights.

“We are excited to renew our partnership with Veritone, as they’ve been a key part in our efforts to efficiently manage our rights and optimize content monetization at U.S. Soccer,” said U.S. Soccer Vice President of Media Judy Matthew. “We look forward to continuing this collaboration and utilizing Veritone's state-of-the-art technology to further elevate our global reach and engagement within the soccer community."

“It’s a privilege to extend our long-standing relationship with U.S. Soccer and support the organization in commercial licensing and growth initiatives designed to increase revenues,” said Jay Bailey, Vice President of Content Licensing and Operations, Veritone. “The prowess and growth trajectory of U.S. Soccer’s global influence and engagement, led by dazzling performances on the pitch, enables Veritone to work seamlessly with brands, networks and documentarians to integrate match content into their creative productions.”

U.S. Soccer utilizes Veritone’s leading AI technology and licensing services, including Veritone Digital Media Hub, a digital asset management and monetization solution that helps content owners generate more revenue from their assets and provides metadata tagging and content management.
