Cinsay's Smart Container™ technology uses intelligent Internet objects (appearing as video players) that virally syndicate and propagate across the web and other connected network and mobile devices. They can be configured in a variety of ways to address the entire value chain of online marketing and shopping. This includes impressions, clicks, lead generation and performing eCommerce transactions. A modern shopping experience works best when interactive media is used. One of the most appealing forms of media for sales and shopping is video, which provides a much more lifelike representation than text or static pictures and creates a richer product browsing or shopping experience. The company is headquartered in Austin, TX with offices in Dallas and Los Angeles.
