Audience Scenario—Understand Consumption Patterns

Starting from the Segment Overview dashboard, you can quickly observe overall trends in consumption based on the configured behavioral segments. Audience defines a set behavioral segments, such as series consumption, device consumption, and day-day part consumption, to help you analyze viewer behavior and consumption patterns. You can also create customized behavior segments based on your most critical viewer behaviors to correlate additional behavior characteristics with viewership and consumption.

You can also import data for advanced combinations of behavior segments, for example importing high LTV viewers to highlight top-priority consumption trends.
