We understand the importance of access to a wide variety of advertisers, to leverage the real-time competition into higher prices. With the Adnimation’s new access to Google ads for CTV, we see a critical impact of increased profitability to their bottom-line.

Digital streaming of video over the internet, professionally referred to as Over-the-Top or OTT, can be consumed through any computer or connected mobile device, and recently more and more through Connected Televisions or CTV. As watching video content is shifting from traditional broadcast to such digital streaming, creators are looking for innovative ways to monetize their content and advertisers seek new ways to place their ads within this video content.

Google operates the largest advertising exchange and both video creators and publishers of CTV channels strive to gain access to this huge video advertising demand source. However, integrating CTV with Google ads requires access to Google’s video ad exchange which is both technically complicated and difficult to attain. Recently, Google awarded Adnimation the World’s first unique license, under the MCM program (Multiple Customer Management), to place video ads from Google advertisers within OTT video content and in CTV channels. Under this license, Adnimation implements Google programmatic ads for CTV for its partnering publishers, which requires some technological steps, like adding the Programmatic Access Libraries (PAL), which are lightweight SDKs (Software Development Kits) that provide discrete access to targeting signals.

Adnimation’s technology, combined with this new Google license, enables publishers who partner with Adnimation to place high priced video ads from Google advertisers within their CTV channels and OTT video content. This gives Adnimation partnering publishers a big advantage in creating competition between advertisers over their video ad inventory. Managing their monetization, Adnimation then leverages this healthy competition into higher priced video ads and eventually into much higher ad revenue.

“This is a very exciting time for Adnimation and for our partnering publishers,” said Tomer Treves, Co-Founder and CBO. “Until now, most OTT and CTV publishers could only dream about having access to Google video ads and leverage them into higher prices and video ad revenue. We are proud to be the first company to launch a CTV video advertising solution with Google ads that is a true game changer.”

Adnimation is a Google-Licensed Partner, staffed with seasoned monetization experts, who understand the importance of blending advanced technology, data, and a strong human connection. These three pillars have driven publishers to significantly increase their ad revenue. After years of helping publishers of websites become stronger businesses, now CTV publishers can benefit as well.
