Las Vegas, NV - (NewMediaWire) - September 23, 2013 - Bent Pixels announced an agreement with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), one of the biggest content creators on YouTube, to assist with content rights management. Bent Pixels will effectively monitor the high volume of new UFC video content being uploaded to YouTube on a daily basis to help address copyright infringement issues. 

“According to our Statfire forecast, the UFC is approaching its 500 million video view milestone on YouTube.  Our goal is to provide strategic insight to help the UFC identify what video content fans like and want more of on YouTube while also monitoring what branded content is being altered,” said Marty Cordova, Bent Pixels COO. “We will also assist the UFC with identifying unauthorized video uses on YouTube.”

Specifically, Bent Pixels helps brands with rights management, data and monetization tools including:

  • Day to day management of YouTube’s Content ID solution;
  • Pioneering Video Identification Monitoring (VIM) software that seeks out Fan-Generated Content (FGC) while simultaneously reclaiming it for the owner;
  • Identification of proprietary content  off  YouTube, including Facebook, Vimeo, DailyMotion, LiveLeak and thousands of others, so brands know how their content is proliferating; and
  • Support in setting up YouTube channels and networks, leveraging Bent Pixels’ status as a Certified YouTube MCN (multi-channel network).


Cordova explains, “Content owners are struggling to understand where their content is being copied and just how much revenue and control is being lost in the dynamic online video arena.  We help them stay ahead of the game.”
