From data science to product: finding the signal in 50TB of content data

The Problem

Viacom18 needed to understand TV-digital audience overlap to inform the Voot Select subscription pivot. 50TB+ of data existed across BARC India TV panels and Voot's digital analytics (100M MAU, 70% Tier 2/3), but no one had bridged these incompatible measurement systems.

The Bet

Data-driven content strategy could accelerate the pivot from ad-revenue to subscription. The CEO personally initiated the challenge and assigned it to a first-year analyst.

The Approach

Built an industry-first statistical framework reconciling panel-based TV data with census-based digital analytics. Built Power BI dashboards for content teams. Optimized brand campaigns through A/B testing and audience segmentation. Led content localization to multiple Indian languages for broader Tier 2/3 appeal.

The Outcome

Won 'Most Innovative Idea' award. Contributed to 1L Voot Select subscribers in week 1, 40% monthly renewal. 30% CTR improvement on brand campaigns. The insight that 70% of 100M MAU came from Tier 2/3 cities directly led to joining ShareChat's Jeet11.
