Business 2.0 Magazine:

Sean Morgan dreams of becoming a new type of media mogul. As CEO of Critical Mention, Morgan is plotting some fancy footwork himself. Going up against the likes of Google and NBC Universal, he’s bringing search to TV – and TV syndication to the Web.

With Critical Mention, he has a Web-based service called CriticalTV that lets corporate and government customers monitor thousands of hours of news broadcasts from the nation’s 50 largest television markets as they occur.

By indexing the closed captions for all the video stored on CriticalTV, the service creates searchable transcripts on the fly. Using speech-to-text software, CriticalTV will soon monitor video that isn’t closed-captioned and also search Arabic-language TV and translate it into English.

Customers ranging from corporate PR officers to FBI analysts to oil executives will continue to be alerted via e-mail (with a link to the video clip) minutes after a company, product, or terrorist name is mentioned on TV here or abroad.
