What the number means

A visible mark or product, not a commercial claim

An exposure is a published observation associated with the canonical brand name. Repeated appearances can produce more than one finding in the same title.

These records do not show whether the appearance was licensed, paid, incidental, critical, historic or added by a production partner.

How to use this profile

Open the title before drawing a conclusion

Use the totals to find titles worth checking, then review the timecode, surrounding scene and exact asset. Brand presence alone is not a maturity, suitability or clearance decision.

Method and limits

Read the evidence, not just the count

Names are curated. Exact aliases are resolved to a versioned canonical record; ambiguous names stay out.

Counts are observations. Several appearances can belong to one scene or title.

Clearance is separate. This profile does not decide trademark, advertising, sponsorship or broadcaster compliance.
