Indian video analytics start-up Vidooly has acquired OTT content start-up iCouchApp for an undisclosed sum. As a part of the deal, Vidooly will acquire all of iCouchApp’s assets and Intellectual Property.
“Vidooly’s aim is to provide intelligent data on the entire ecosystem of online video. We are already doing that with the likes of YouTube, Facebook video and other online video platforms.
