WB hero clear

Complex media ecosystem required centralized data.

Local requirements, managed globally.

Content distribution across countries—each with local compliance laws—required tailored content for different markets.

Lack of centralized metadata repository.

Difficulty finding and accessing varied data across systems limited WB’s ability to monetize it.

Data silos across affilates increased costs and effort.

Acquisitions and spin-offs—some affiliates operating independently—limited ability to reduce expenses.

Duplicate data across networks and licensees.

Different IDs for licensed titles required significant effort to match to enable usage of rich data.
