"One of the unique selling points of Digimarc's digital watermarking platform is the superior user experience and its imperceptibility to the human eye — there is virtually no impact to the overall layout and aesthetics of the editorial content or advertisement."

The Digimarc® Discover Online Services Portal (OSP) is the hub to transform static print media and audio campaigns into interactive opportunities that extend the reach of your brand.

The web-based service is for publishers, audio engineers, their advertisers and anyone else who wants to connect a printed image or audio track to enhanced, dynamic content in the digital world. Detectable by today's most popular mobile devices — digitally watermarked content triggers access to a wide range of new, rich media experiences to mobile readers and consumers.

The benefits of digital watermarking with our service

The use of digital watermarking offers a premium user experience over other technologies such as 2D barcodes or QR codes because they do not occupy valuable real estate on printed content, nor do they have a negative impact on the design or aesthetics of the layout. In publications that feature multiple items or products on the page, each image or text block can be uniquely watermarked, allowing consumers to obtain information on the specific items they are interested in. Users simply launch the app and point their device's camera at the watermarked printed content — or microphone toward the watermarked audio — which interests them.

Digital watermarks are able to uniquely identify each instance of a piece of content. This allows for very granular reporting and metrics, essential to large, global campaigns using multiple publications, on multiple days, in multiple locations. Content owners, brands and advertisers can track interaction with content and advertising in real time, enabling ongoing refinements and changes to payoffs to increase response rates and improve the consumer's experience.

How it works

The Online Services Portal is where you can embed imperceptible digital watermarks into images, behind text, and now in audio files without additional software. Anyone can setup a free account at www.digimarc.com/portal, and once signed in, it's easy to create a project and start embedding digital watermarks.

Tools are included for organizing projects and downloading data to track user activity associated with individual mobile links. Pricing is based on the length of time a link is in service. Rates begin at just $9.99 USD, payable by credit card or PayPal, for a link that remains in service for one month. There are no upfront costs or setup fees, and no long-term contracts required. Embed digital watermarks into content quickly and with minimal impact to workflow. The OSP is a user-friendly, self-service, affordable way to get started and experience the potential of Digimarc Discover first-hand.

To support the Online Services Portal, Digimarc has deployed a robust online computing system that communicates with your device when a watermark is detected. The system matches the URL(s) associated with specific watermarks and returns the experience within seconds, while capturing metrics for each instance of user engagement.
