The Widget Suite application enables any organization to empower viewers to 
search the data within its video content, from across any number of sources, 
and assemble hyper-personalized videos( 
https://www.linius.com/hyper-personalized-video-solutions/) on-the-fly.

The Widget Suite can be accessed for free from the new Linius Marketplace (API 
consumption charges apply): https://www.linius.com/marketplace/

With a simple YouTube-like code snippet, clients can independently deploy the 
'plug and play' application with no Linius resources required, embedding the 
full capability on their website in under an hour.

"Our strategy here is rapid scalability," said Linius CEO, Chris Richardson. 
"This Widget Suite makes Linius' technology broadly accessible to the global 
video industry -- one of our core commercialization strategies. The launch 
creates the opportunity for viral uptake of a set of tools which have the 
potential to revolutionize the way video solutions are developed, delivered and 
consumed."

Linius announced on March 12, 2019( 
https://www.linius.com/hemisphere-to-further-invest-in-building-technology-on-linius-video-services/) 
that Hemisphere was investing in building the application on Linius' 
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform, Linius Video 
Services(https://lvs.linius.com/auth/signup). The widget delivers a range of 
benefits to publishers, rights holders and distributers of digital video.

"Together, Linius and Hemisphere are empowering video-rich organizations and 
business functions throughout the world to deliver previously impossible 
hyper-personalized video experiences," said Hemisphere CEO, Glyn Beaumont. 
"Taking just a handful of clicks to set-up, clients can quickly increase the 
value of their video content with the Widget Suite, using video 
hyper-personalization to boost audience engagement, create additional 
subscription and advertising revenues, and monetize archival footage." 

Linius and Hemisphere will generate revenue from the Widget Suite via API 
consumption charges, as part of its existing SaaS pricing model -- essentially 
generating revenue every time someone uses the product to watch a video.

Founded in 2008, Hemisphere is a leading internet software development company 
specializing in the creation and monetization of online video delivery 
solutions. Hemisphere has worked with well-known international companies 
including Fox Sports, Comcast, NewsCorp, NBC Universal and CNN.

About Linius Technologies Limited:

Linius Technologies Limited (ASX: LNU( 
https://www.asx.com.au/asx/share-price-research/company/LNU)) has invented and 
patented the Video Virtualization Engine(TM) (VVE), which is available on 
Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and IBM Cloud.

Amazon, Microsoft and IBM are investing billions in virtualizing 'video 
services' (technologies) and Artificial Intelligence in the cloud. It is 
arguably the biggest battle on the internet, given that video accounts for 
nearly 80 percent of internet traffic.

Only Linius can expose the data that makes up the video file, making cumbersome 
video as flexible as all other forms of data. Accessing the data within the 
video file is the missing link for video cloud service providers, creating 
unparalleled value across the internet video industry.

Linius' VVE-powered Video Hyper-Personalization and Search Solution enables 
anyone to instantly search the data within video, from across an infinite 
number of sources, and automatically assemble the results in a single stream 
on-the-fly. No human hands required.

Linius is revolutionizing the way organizations and individuals across the 
globe produce, deliver and consume video, enabling previously impossible 
hyper-personalized video experiences.

It's a breakthrough set to disrupt entire multi-billion-dollar industries. 
Linius is initially focused on delivering its Video Hyper-Personalization and 
Search Solution to six core markets: News and Media, Sports Broadcasters and 
Rights Holders, Education, Corporate Communications, Security and Defense, and 
Sports Betting.
