Graymatics is a cognitive media processing company based in Santa Clara, California, United States and in Singapore.[1][2] The company is most well known for its digital video analysis and image-recognition technology, a platform capable of identifying the brands of products within images or video content.[3][4] Citrix Systems was the initial investor in Graymatics, providing financial backing through its investment group, the Citrix Startup Accelerator.[1][3] Graymatics has offices in Santa Clara, California and Singapore.[2]
History
Aware of the untapped market potential of online video content, Abhijit Shanbhag founded Graymatics in 2010.[4][5] While still in stealth mode, the Citrix Startup Accelerator invested in Graymatics.[3][6][7] In addition to the backing from Citrix, Graymatics also counts the office of Singapore’s Prime Minister among its investors.[2][4][5]
Products & services
Graymatics offers a suite of products that implement its video analysis and image recognition technology.[4] The company’s core product is ContextConnect, an automated, cloud-based technology that identifies and analyzes products within available visual content and provides users with brand and purchasing information.[3][4][8] The ContextConnect technology works by identifying and matching relevant visual information with content from its database of scanned images from the Web.[2][4] Once a product has been identified and tagged within the visual field, the user is provided with a link to an appropriate online retailer from which the product may be purchased.[4]
Graymatics also offers ImageAssurance, TubeScan, and InterestInsights.[2] ImageAssurance is designed to recognize objectionable content such as nudity or violence.[2] TubeScan allows content publishers to extract data from videos viewed online.[2] InterestInsights provides a publisher with a platform to create viewer profiles.[2]

Graymatics won the Techventure 2012 award for Rising Star Innovator.[9]
