In this episode, we take you behind the scenes of Strada’s journey from concept to reality. From early feedback at trade shows like IBC to refining our platform in real time, we dive into the the development of our latest game-changing feature: automated facial recognition.
We share the lessons we learned, the risks we took, and the critical importance of stress-testing the product at every step. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a filmmaker, or just someone curious about tech innovation, this episode is packed with insights on creating a product that resonates with users.
At IBC in 2023, we had just a website practically held together by duct tape; At IBC in 2024, we had a booth and launched our groundbreaking tool that will forever change how media is searched and tagged.
