About Clicktivated

Clicktivated is a patented video technology that allows for true interaction in online video by allowing any item, product or person in a video to become clickable/actionable or "clicktivated." The viewer interacts with the video simply by clicking/touching (device dependent) an object, which activates a "bookmark" containing information that can lead to a direct purchase or an expansion of the subject matter being viewed. Clicktivated Video is non-intrusive and designed to put the viewer in control of their own interests in any given video scenario while simultaneously providing maximum impact for the products being viewed or the information being discussed. Videos utilizing Clicktivated's technology also provide an opportunity for data collection with a full analytics package as well as gamification (product searches, video hunt, interactive contests) to dramatically increase viewer engagement and conversions. The result is a fully engaged viewer that stays on the content longer, is more inclined to make an impulsive purchase, and is socially motivated to share their experience.
