Ratings don't tell the whole story. kazva.bg reveals what viewers think.
Viewership data measures reach. kazva.bg measures satisfaction - the perception data that ratings alone cannot deliver.
Voluntary Standard
No dedicated ISO standard or Bulgarian mandate exists for media audience feedback. The industry relies on Nielsen/BARB viewership data, social media analytics, and direct surveys.
ISO 9001:2015, §9.1.2 applies generically - any ISO 9001-certified media company must demonstrate systematic customer (audience) satisfaction measurement.
kazva.bg fills a genuine gap: providing structured satisfaction data beyond viewership metrics. While ratings tell you how many people watch, kazva.bg tells you what they think.

The Media Industry: Between Ratings and Real Audience Perception
Television and digital media markets worldwide rely on viewership data from measurement services like Nielsen, BARB, and regional equivalents. These metrics tell broadcasters how many people are watching, but not what they think about the content. The distinction between ratings and satisfaction is fundamental: a programme can achieve high ratings due to sensational content while generating low satisfaction with journalistic quality. No dedicated ISO standard exists for media audience feedback, leaving a significant measurement gap.
Why Media Organizations Need Structured Audience Feedback
ISO 9001 section 9.1.2 applies generically — any ISO-certified media organization must monitor customer perceptions of whether their needs and expectations are being met. For media companies, the "customer" is the audience. Viewers can evaluate specific programmes and segments through QR codes displayed during broadcasts or shared on social media. The data reveals dimensions invisible to ratings systems: trust in presenters, perceived objectivity, and intent to watch again.
While social media sentiment analysis provides some perception data, it is unstructured, biased toward extreme opinions, and difficult to benchmark over time. kazva.bg provides the systematic, comparable satisfaction measurement that bridges the gap between raw viewership numbers and genuine audience perception — the evidence that ISO 9001 auditors require and that editorial teams need for content strategy decisions.
