Cinema8’s video analytics framework captures engagement directly from the video player and surfaces the results in the dashboard. Review play rate, watch time, drop-offs, replays, and interactions with overlays or CTAs, then compare results across pages or campaigns. All player-level signals feed into heatmaps and reports you can share with stakeholders or export for deeper analysis.
