Visual quality, assessed on every feed

Black, freeze, and lip-sync faults caught the moment they happen, on every channel you run.

VQSense continuously assesses the visual quality of your output: black screen on air, frozen frames, and AV-sync drift that viewers experience as lip-sync error. Faults raise alarms with the same lifecycle operators use across the rest of the platform, so a picture problem is handled like any other incident instead of arriving as a phone call from a viewer.

Why operators switch

The monitor wall only works if someone is looking at the right monitor

Without Sense · Manual & legacy probesReactive spot-checks

Black on air, a frozen frame, audio drifting out of sync with the picture: these are the faults viewers actually notice and remember. They are also the faults a human wall-watcher misses, because they happen on channel 31 while the operator is dealing with channel 6.

  • 1 operator cannot monitor 40+ tracks by ear or eye at once
  • Legacy probes confirm packet presence, not what airs inside the stream
  • Faults survive on air for minutes until viewers or affiliates complain
With VQSense · Proactive 24/7 augmentationContinuous AI watch

VQSense looks at every channel with the same attention, all the time.

  • Watches 100% of licensed tracks simultaneously with zero fatigue
  • Flags the exact fault, timecode clip, and fix while you can still act
  • Augments your crew to cover 10x more feeds without extra headcount

Live signal pipeline

How it works

  1. 01STAGE 01

    Tap every feed

    Live channels over your existing transports, plus file-based QC on demand.

  2. 02STAGE 02

    Assess continuously

    Black, freeze, and AV-sync assessed in real time on every feed.

  3. 03STAGE 03

    Alarm with discipline

    Faults fire alarms with the full lifecycle: fire, acknowledge, snooze, self-resolve when the picture recovers.

  4. 04STAGE 04

    Feed your stack

    Every fault is an event on the API and event stream, so your NMS and automation see what VQSense sees.

Product demo

Watch VQSense catch a picture fault

Recorded from a live session. What you see is the product.

A feed goes to black. The alarm fires before the first viewer complaint would have been typed.

Built for broadcast operations

Capabilities

  • 24/7 ACTIVE

    Black and freeze detection

    The two faults every viewer notices, caught in the moment on every channel.

  • PROACTIVE ALARM

    AV-sync fault detection

    Lip-sync error detected as it develops, not after the complaints arrive.

  • ZERO FATIGUE

    Live and file-based QC

    Continuous assessment on live output, batch assessment on file-based content.

  • FLEET SCALE

    Built against alarm fatigue

    Healthy feeds stay quiet. A fault surfaces once, with context, in the critical zone.

Modular switchable extensions

Skills are coming to VQSense

Every Sense ships with its core capabilities. Skills extend it, switchable per track, priced only when you turn them on.

Per-track add-on
  • SKILL 01Switchable per track

    Artifact Detection

    Macroblocking, banding, and compression artifacts scored on live output.

  • SKILL 02Switchable per track

    Sync Drift Trending

    AV-sync tracked over time, so slow drift is caught before it becomes visible.

  • SKILL 03Switchable per track

    Channel Quality Scoring

    A continuous per-channel quality score for reporting and SLA reporting.

Runs where you run

Every Sense runs on private local AI models, on your hardware or in your cloud account. Nothing is sent to a third-party inference service, ever. Deployments range from a single GPU server to a rack, sized to your channel count. We spec the hardware with your engineering team before anything ships.
