Wochit Adds Newsflare Newsflare Videos

Predictive video creation platform Wochit today said that content from Newsflare, a provider of viral and breaking news videos to media and news organizations around the world, will now be available in the Woochit’s library of pre-cleared assets.

The deal brings Wochit users in North and South America access to Newsflare’s archive of eyewitness video content shot by amateur and professionals worldwide. As part of the deal, Newsflare expects to add 1,000 fresh videos to the Wochit library each month.

“As more media companies and other brands incorporate video in their audience engagement strategies, it’s imperative our library incorporate a depth and breadth of materials. Newsflare is an ideal partner to help us achieve this goal, and ensure our customers have the content they need when they need it,” commented Jo Schmaltz, VP global content partnerships at Wochit.

“It’s been an exciting year for our company, and we’re delighted to partner with Wochit,” said Jon Cornwell, CEO, Newsflare. “Following our recent expansion into the U.S., working with partners to bring our members’ videos to ever more publishers in the region is a critical part of our strategy. We see this deal as a great way to rapidly increase our reach throughout the Americas.”

As a provider of content to Wochit’s library, Newsflare joins a group that includes AFP, AP, Reuters, Getty, PA among others.
