At the NAB Show, IMDb representatives are available to meet with prospective customers about growing their businesses by leveraging IMDb information and insights including the newly enhanced IMDb Parents Guide, which provides severity ratings and scene descriptions for more than 190,000 movies, TV shows, and video games and is updated daily. The IMDb Parents Guide, now available on AWS Marketplace, draws from the collective insights of the global IMDb community and supports companies specializing in brand safety and content personalization. Digital advertisers can use this resource to extract contextual information, assessing title appropriateness for brand safety in online advertising.
Streaming providers can leverage the detailed scene descriptions to enhance content recommendation algorithms and search functionality, enabling more precise filtering and personalized recommendations based on viewer sensitivities.
