Video tagging in ecommerce

Video tagging is one way to speed up backend processes by automatically tagging images with attribute labels for both physical and aesthetic qualities. This capability offers consumers a highly personalized experience since the retailer has information on the consumer’s style preferences. What’s more, image and video tagging helps curation teams build shoppable content or distribute UGC for publishers, brands and retailers.

Use-Case

A problem facing many e-commerce retailers is building classifiers for product data tagging, which is a faster and more scalable approach. A key challenge is the proliferation of taxonomies used to describe merchandise. One brand may call something a “shirt,” another “blouse,” and yet another “polo.”

One way to go around this is by populating the field with a list of suggested tags. This can be accomplished using Filestack’s Picker, our image and video tagging micro-service, and any general HTML form. By presenting a list of tags to the user and allowing them to click on each to populate an input field, we have taken a task and turned it into a few clicks.

Keep your business processes smart and seamless when you tag videos with Filestack.

OBJECT RECOGNITION

How valuable would it be to “see” what is in every image? With our image auto-tagging service, you can easily abstract what objects appear in your uploaded images. People, animals, transportation, and thousand of other categories are at your disposal.

EXPLICIT CONTENT DETECTION

Moderate your images to ensure you are only showing content that comply with your rules and boundaries. By implementing “safe for work” and a “not safe for work” score, our image tagging service can help you automate content moderation so you can focus on your core business.
