The operations / 02

BEFORE AIRTIME.
AFTER THE SIGNAL.

Every broadcast begins with a commitment and ends with proof. Zhyqorvanta AI brings seven specialized workspaces together to manage content clearances, transmission preparation, live execution, signal verification, and commercial reconciliation.

PS–002 / Module 01

Bookings & Rights

Read advertising insertion orders and programme licences, verify airtime commitments, broadcast territories and rights windows, and flag conflicts before scheduling begins.

PS–003 / Module 02

Media Assets

Inspect incoming transmission masters for correct versions, video format, audio loudness and captions. AI highlights technical exceptions before content is approved for airtime.

PS–004 / Module 03

Scheduling & Traffic

Place programmes and commercials into available broadcast slots. Check break capacity, creative rotation and rights restrictions before releasing the transmission log.

The intelligence / 03

INTELLIGENCE
BEHIND
EVERY AIRING.

Different broadcast tasks demand different intelligence.

From insertion-order verification to media analysis, programme scheduling and transmission reconciliation, Zhyqorvanta AI connects specialist AI services to the evidence, rules and approvals behind each broadcast decision.

Side A / Conventional AI

One model.
Every task.

Business application → Built-in AI → Generic response

Contracts, media and transmission records are treated as similar requests, despite requiring different evidence and technical checks.

Side B / Zhyqorvanta AI

The right intelligence for
each broadcast decision.

Broadcast artifact → Task-specific AI → Validated result → Authorized action

Route contracts, media and incident evidence to suitable models while keeping technical rules and human approvals in control.

How it works / 04

FROM BOOKING
TO BROADCAST PROOF.

01

Clear the airtime

Validate advertising orders, programme rights and commercial restrictions. Inspect transmission masters, confirm media readiness and release approved content for scheduling.

02

Build the broadcast

Allocate commercial breaks, finalize transmission logs and coordinate live rundowns. Hand approved programme sources and timing instructions to Master Control for on-air execution.

03

Prove the delivery

Compare as-run events with monitored signal evidence, investigate missed or interrupted transmissions, and reconcile advertiser commitments before approving makegoods, credits and invoices.

Beyond the dashboard / 05

Your Broadcasting & Television Networks AI agents, run like production systems.

A broadcast runs from booking to proof of airing. It needs an operational system at every step, not another chat window.

  1. Workflow An advertiser insertion order arrives for a multi-spot campaign across your channels.
  2. Agents Read the order, verify rights and airtime, check the media master, and propose break allocations for the transmission log.
  3. Tools Insertion orders, programme licences, traffic and transmission logs, SCTE-35 cue data, and off-air recordings.
  4. Execution Clearance moves to Scheduling & Traffic, approved logs go to Master Control, and assurance evidence goes to Billing & Settlement, each approved by an operator.
  5. Outcome Verified airings, with makegoods and credits reconciled and the evidence attached.

Agent workflows are scoped to your channels, rights agreements and approval policies.

Pre-purchase FAQ / 11

BEFORE
AIRTIME.

01Can Zhyqorvanta AI prevent conflicting bookings across network and affiliate commercial inventory?

Zhyqorvanta AI is designed to distinguish network-owned and affiliate-owned advertising breaks, verify insertion orders against available inventory, and flag overlapping spot commitments. Traffic teams can review break capacity, daypart restrictions, and creative rotation requirements before approving transmission schedules. Existing traffic-system integrations depend on supported data interfaces.

02How does the platform verify programme rights and repeat-airing permissions before transmission?

AI extracts licence periods, broadcast territories, permitted platforms, and repeat-run limits from programme agreements. These conditions are checked against planned transmission dates to flag expired rights, unauthorized territories, or exceeded airing limits. Final clearance remains with authorized Rights and Legal personnel.

03What happens when a live broadcast overruns its scheduled commercial breaks?

Zhyqorvanta AI compares revised production rundowns with approved traffic logs to identify displaced advertisements and scheduling conflicts. It can suggest alternative placements and estimate potential makegood exposure. Producers and Traffic Managers approve changes before Master Control executes revised transmission instructions.

04Can Zhyqorvanta AI identify transmission failures even when the playout log shows a successful broadcast?

Where compatible monitoring evidence is available, Broadcast Assurance compares Master Control as-run records with encoder alarms, return-feed monitoring, and off-air recordings. It helps engineers identify affected transmission intervals, distinguish playout success from downstream delivery, and document findings for technical review.

05How are missed advertisements and broadcast discrepancies handled before final billing?

Billing & Settlement reconciles insertion orders, approved traffic logs, actual airings, and verified transmission evidence. AI flags undelivered or disputed spots, calculates potential billing differences, and prepares proposed makegoods or credits. Authorized teams approve the contractual resolution before invoices are finalized.
