The Cerify® is an automated file-based QC software product, which integrates into file-based workflows that are processing a large volume of content. The software is scalable from a single instance to a multiple instance cluster for enterprise work-flows requiring higher throughput. Cerify reduces the "human QC" efforts, qualifies the media to pass or fail, and aids operational decisions. This product provides both broadcast and production operations with a fast, cost effective QC solution.
