Jinni using TMS metadata for iPad app and web service

Search and discovery software provider Jinni is using metadata specialist TMS’s On Entertainment metadata to supply information for linear and OTT TV content on its new My TV & Movie Guide iPad app and web service.

The use of TMS’s metadata enables Jinni users to find their way to content once they have discovered something they want to watch on the basis of Jinni’s taste and mood-based recommendation engine.

“TMS is pleased to provide the enhanced entertainment data that helps Jinni facilitate consumers’ viewing of TV shows and movies recommended by its taste and mood based discovery engine,” said Rich Cusick, general manager of TMS.

“Jinni users are sure to get hooked on the advanced search and discovery experience.”

“Jinni’s goal is to set users free from the frustration of searching for something to watch. Our recommendations take them directly to the content they are most likely to enjoy,” said Yosi Glick, co-founder and CEO of Jinni.  “TMS metadata allow us to present users the very best recommendations from amongst all content available to them, and to directly connect to all viewing options for instant gratification.”
