What is Digital Experience Intelligence (DXI)?

The New Standard for Understanding and Optimizing Your Video Platform

Today’s video and streaming platforms face intense competition and growing user expectations. Tracking what users do is no longer enough. Success depends on understanding how they interact, why they behave the way they do, and what changes will make them stay longer, engage more deeply, and return again. You need to meet your users where they are, with the content they want, at the right time.

That’s why Digital Experience Intelligence (DXI) is emerging as the solution video platforms need to meet the demand of their audience and the market.

Defining Digital Experience Intelligence

DXI is a powerful collection of solutions designed to capture, analyse and activate insights across every digital touchpoint a user has with and around your platform. It creates a cohesive narrative in a single, unified view by connecting audience behavior, content engagement and performance, product usage, marketing effectiveness, and monetization strategies. 

Rather than replacing existing analytics solutions like Product or Web Analytics, DXI extends and enriches them, combining them into a broader, connected view of the full digital experience.

Why Aren’t Traditional Analytics Enough Anymore?

Traditional analytics solutions have been essential to track key user behaviors:

• How many users watched a piece of content?
  
• What features were clicked or ignored?
  
• How long did users stay active?

However, traditional solutions focus on individual touchpoints rather than the entire journey. They often exist in silos, missing the broader relationships between product interactions, content consumption, user satisfaction, and monetization. Traditional analytics can tell you what happened, but not always why it happened.

Digital Experience Intelligence fills that gap by:

• Connecting user behavior across content, UX, marketing, and revenue
  
• Correlating actions to outcomes (engagement, conversion, churn)
• Offering real-time, contextual insights rather than delayed reports

Digital Experience Intelligence is not a replacement. It is the evolution of analytics. It builds on current solutions and makes them more powerful by giving the necessary context to content, marketing, product, data, UX, and every other team of your business.

Why Streaming Platforms Need Digital Experience Intelligence
