5th Annual EnTech Awards from the Digital Entertainment Group Recognize Innovation

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 10, 2025 — Cineverse Corp. (Nasdaq: CNVS), a next-generation entertainment studio, was honored at the 5th annual EnTech Awards. The awards were presented by DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group at a ceremony in Los Angeles.

In the Emerging Technology category — which recognizes a company for creating a new, consumer-facing technology likely to positively affect the future of digital entertainment — Cineverse was recognized for the development of cineSearch. Powered by Matchpoint™, cineSearch is an AI-powered content search and discovery platform available to consumers at www.cinesearch.com and for commercial licensing to OEMs and streaming platforms via cinesearch.com/business.

One key feature of cineSearch is a customizable AI chat bot that makes recommendations to users. The first persona introduced by Cineverse is Ava (short for “AI Video Advisor”), designed with the knowledge and disposition of a cool film critic, a deeply nerdy academic, and a favorite cinephile. Additional personas are being introduced to suit a range of moods and tastes. With cineSearch for Business, Cineverse is focused on integrating into the search process for customers to help answer the perennial question: what does everyone want to watch tonight?

“We are proud of the work our team has done to bring cineSearch to where it is today — solving the film and TV search and discovery problem that costs an unnecessary amount of time for consumers and money for platforms,” said Tony Huidor, Cineverse President of Technology and Chief Product Officer, who accepted the award on Cineverse’s behalf. “Unmatched in the industry, cineSearch is lowering average search time by 90%, annual churn by 15.6% and generating average savings of 24% per month. As this AI-based product continues to learn from viewers, these numbers will only get better.”

In addition to cineSearch’s win at the EnTech Awards, Huidor was recognized as a finalist in the Technology Leadership category.
