Through it's technology partner, i-BridgeTech, AFSTEREO has a network of field stations situated around South Africa tracking over 33 radio and television stations.
AFSTEREO uses US-patented radio and television monitoring technology, called AirCheck, engineered by Media Monitors USA, to listen to top-rated radio and television stations in major markets.
AFSTEREO utilises advanced wave pattern recognition technology (not watermarking), AirCheck essentially “fingerprints” audio and video which allows AFSTEREO to offer a raft of exciting services.
While computers automatically track thousands of recurring commercials hour after hour, 365 days a year, teams of spot and music data specialists research and identify new advertisers, commercials, music artists and song titles every day.
AFSTEREO can provide data such as:
- How many of your commercials are playing on SA radio and television
- How many of your competitors’ commercials are playing on SA radio and television
- How many of your commercials that were scheduled to go to air actually played
- When and where your competitors advertise
- How many times a particular song has been played on SA radio
- How many times a particular station has played a particular artist, and which tracks were played at what times
- And much more!
AFSTEREO provides advanced tools to analyse and use the data collected. To arrange a free demonstration of our services, please contact tonya@afstereo.com (Media and Music Services)
