NEW YORK, July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Storyful, the
leader in discovering, validating, and acquiring social video for
global media organizations, has announced today the integration of
the Snap API into the Storyful Newswire and their tech stack. The
Snap API will feed video content, geolocation and time stamping
data, allowing Storyful to sequence breaking news events and source
user video.
Fully integrated into the Newswire, the Snap API allows Storyful
to trace stories across multiple platforms in sequence to deliver
unique social intelligence and video to newsrooms around the world.
Storyful's stack of discovery tools already ingests public data
from social platforms including Facebook, Reddit, Twitter,
Instagram, Tumblr and YouTube. Internal technology then normalizes
the data so Storyful journalists are able to source original
content, track the spread of disinformation and make sense of
breaking news.
The Newswire provides partners with the video content and
investigative research they need to report on breaking news and
global trends. This service allows partners to break news faster
and deliver quality information and video that builds and retains
audiences.
"Our social data, agile technology and journalistic provenance
is a unique offering that makes sense of social media for
partners," Sharb Farjami, CEO said. "Adding Snap strengthens our
ability to deliver the investigative research and video that our
partners need so they can report on breaking news and global trends
with speed and accuracy."
Snap content will be available to partners starting July 17.
