This platform involves loggers listening to radio and TV recordings, cutting them into small segments called synopses, and providing a brief summary of the content in a text field. The system allows users to choose recordings, submit synopses to a database, and use crawlers to allocate them based on keywords for clients. Users can track completed and pending tasks, access client allocations, and retrieve synopsis IDs for searching on a top client query application. The platform logs activities in a database, sending information to both the Analysis and Client Platform. Loggers can review their daily work, request deletion of entries with mistakes, and communicate with the manager.
