Every season, rights holders and sponsors sign off on numbers that nobody can trace back to a single frame.

Fragmented

Live, streaming, highlights, news and social. Coverage is spread across more screens than any single report sees.

Self-reported

Delivery is often confirmed by the party that delivered it, across dozens of markets nobody sees end to end.

Untraceable

Exposure gets counted, not checked. When the board asks where a number came from, the trail ends.

Most measurement starts at exposure. We start earlier. And go further.

Global MMK begins by finding and verifying the right media content, then continues through audience, valuation and delivery. One chain, six connected stages, so every number can be traced back to verified evidence.

Typical measurement
  1. 01 Monitor Find the content
  2. 02 Verify Confirm what aired
  3. 03 Analyse Identify the assets
  4. 04 Qualify Weigh every second
  5. 05 Value Connect the audience
  6. 06 Decide Act on evidence

Illustrative journey · sample data

Understand the game beyond the game.

The world of sports media is complex. Making sense of it shouldn’t be.

We combine data, technology and human expertise to show you the full picture: where content is broadcast, who watches, and how brands are seen.

The platform behind every verified number.

From monitoring and feed validation to social media detection and valuation: built in-house, run in-house, reviewed by experts.

Global Media Monitoring

React while you are still on air.

Programme rundowns are built live, item by item, timecoded to the second, across TV, OTT/VOD streaming, news and sports programming. Under-delivery, feed problems and missing assets surface during the broadcast, not in next week’s report.

  • 24/7 news monitoring worldwide
  • Live, re-live, highlights and clips
  • Video evidence for every item

Live Feed Validation

Verify the feed. In real time. Worldwide.

Market feeds are checked continuously against the rights holder’s master feed. A wrong feed triggers an alert, is corrected at source and re-validated, while the match is still running.

Social Media Monitoring

Detected while the clip is still spreading.

Match footage, sponsor logos and branded inventory travel far beyond the broadcast. Feeds, posts and live streams are scanned continuously while reach is still building, so rights holders can act in time instead of reviewing the damage afterwards.
