Tapad Expands Linear TV Analytics Solution, Enabling Optimal Reach and Frequency Across TV and Digital Platform NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2017 Tapad has partnered with WideOrbit, the leading provider of advertising management software for media companies, to develop the industry's first programmatic TV-buying platform powered by a device graph.
Tapad is the leading provider of unified, cross-screen marketing technology solutions and was first to market with a device graph, the Tapad Device Graph . WideOrbit's robust supply platform and industry-leading footprint offers access to premium TV inventory on top networks, reaching more than 99 million households across local affiliates.
The partnership pairs Tapad's demand-side technology with WideOrbit's supply-side inventory. As a result, marketers can leverage cross-device audiences in their TV buys for the first time. Additionally, integrating the Tapad Device Graph with digital feedback loops and audiences both accelerates optimization and enables precise audience discovery for TV marketers.
The integration of WideOrbit's quality TV supply takes orchestrated cross-screen media buys to the next level, said Marshall Wong, Tapad's SVP of TV market development. Marketers can now optimize TV campaigns within days instead of weeks. This also untethers them from buying against generic demographics like age and gender. By allowing brands to employ their own CRM or third-party data, we can move them much closer to audiences who will take action.
Integrating Tapad's device graph with WideOrbit's programmatic marketplace delivers enormous value to marketers looking to add TV to cross-device campaigns, said Ian Ferreira, EVP of programmatic at WideOrbit. Television still delivers the most efficient reach of any medium, and Tapad's platform now allows marketers to purchase premium broadcast inventory that extends the power of cross-screen campaigns to TV with a single, unified solution.
Our clients build lasting relationships with consumers through thoughtful and pioneering marketing, said Jeff Giacchetti, VP of digital at Mediavest Spark. The strategic partnership of demand-side technology and supply-side inventory makes it easier for brands to find efficient, incremental reach and are critical in this endeavor.
