Truveo, a video search engine acquired by AOL in January 2006, relaunched in August with claims of having an advantage over competitors in the online video sector. Founded by MIT PhDs, Truveo addresses the challenging issue of generating metadata from video content, which is inherently more complex to contextualize than text-based content. The platform prioritizes professionally produced media over user-generated content during searches. Recently, Truveo secured a partnership with CBS, enhancing its video content capabilities across nearly three dozen of CBS's online radio websites. Some of its competitors include YouTube, SlapVid, Vimeo, and VideoEgg. Truveo, established in 2004, operates in the music industry and received a $1.00M Series A investment on 01 January 2005 from Uncork Capital. The company's slogan, "Experience a new era in online video search, prioritizing professional content for a seamless viewing experience," underscores its commitment to revolutionizing video search and prioritizing high-quality content for users.
