Overview
Power CTV contextual advertising with industry standard video data and IDs
With smart TV and device penetration higher than ever and viewers spending more time watching streaming video, marketers are increasingly shifting ad spend to CTV. However, to achieve higher ROI from CTV programmatic advertising, both media buyers and sellers are seeking better ad targeting and more transparency.
Gracenote’s standardized, in-depth TV and movie metadata and content IDs allow media buyers and sellers to reach CTV audiences at the content-level at scale. Gracenote, the leading global metadata provider powering video content discovery across the entertainment ecosystem, is now helping unlock more value through contextual video advertising.
Gracenote’s content IDs and normalized descriptive data, including genre classifications, program type, parental ratings and advisories enable refined targeting and content exclusions without limiting scale. A brand seeking to reach sports enthusiasts can align ad placements not only with live sports programming, but also other sports-related content including sports documentaries and movies with sports-centric storylines.
