CANAL+ and Google Cloud have announced a new multi-year partnership focused on artificial intelligence. Starting in June 2026, CANAL+ will deploy Google Cloud's latest generative AI technologies across European and African markets where the CANAL+ App is available, unlocking a new era of creative possibilities for the group. Using Google Cloud's technologies, CANAL+ will accelerate the content video indexing of its extensive content library.
The new content classification will provide the global media and entertainment group with an in-depth multimodal database combining sound, video, and text data. CANAL+ will also leverage Veo3, Google's new genAI video technology, to provide its production partners and creative teams with tools that will unlock the creative ambitions of their talent, for instance, previsualizing a scene before shooting it or recreating historical moments from a single archival photo. The partnership guarantees a very secure technical environment, where rights, assets ownership are deeply protected.
Using these tools & platform, CANAL+'s partners will have full control of their production and editorial decision, with opportunities to try new approaches while ensuring cost control, thanks to significantly shorter experimentation cycles. This secure technical platform and tools will be made available to production who wish to use it in films supported by CANAL+.
