NEW YORK, NY – October 7, 2015 – PeerLogix, Inc. (the “Company”) (LOGX), an advertising technology and data aggregation provider, today announced that its PeerLogix platform was featured in an article on Inc.com. The piece “Why There’s a Revolution Coming to Entertainment Analytics” discusses disruptive cutting-edge technology in the consumer research niche of the analytics industry, with particular focus on the evolving viewership patterns.

In the article, Tim Askew, believes PeerLogix seems to have found a way to harness and monetize consumer criminality by tracking “torrent” files. Essentially their technology is based on measuring “torrent piracy” by any number of apps and websites, most notably Bit-Torrent and Popcorn Time. PeerLogix seems to be the other side of the coin from Nielsen and comScore/Rentrack, both of whom operate by mining data of consumers using accepted and legitimate media outlets. PeerLogix mines the legally murky underside of the internet and opens up new arenas to research analysts via a software which engages consumers of the content-sharing economy. PeerLogix claims to be able to mine the 145 million (and rapidly growing) worldwide users of torrent files, who leverage the ability of people to network peer-to-peer.
William Gorfein, Co-founder and CEO of PeerLogix, stated, “We appreciate the recognition from Inc.com and Tim Askew as an emerging, potentially disruptive cutting-edge technology play in the consumer research and analytics industry. We are very excited to introduce our platform to the industry and begin signing up clients to demonstrate and support what we feel is a breakthrough in how to analyze evolving viewership patterns.”
It should be noted that Tim Askew is a Board member of PeerLogix, Inc.
