Adcurate™
Boost your monetization IQ with real-time ad metadata
What’s running on your platform?
Adcurate™ provides real time info on the human validated advertiser name, ad category, and audience suitability for all inbound CTV ads. Partners can leverage this data for a better understanding of what’s running on the platform, more accurate category blocking, and to reliably service publishers with sensitive audiences.
Accurate Data Makes Platforms More Effective
Most programmatic platforms rely on self-declared IAB advertiser categories to filter ads. This creates serious brand safety issues for publishers and audiences alike as categories can be misrepresented or incorrect and often aren’t granular enough to be fully effective.
Adcurate™ validates the advertiser and IAB category of every ad ensuring effective ad blocking from undesirable categories like alcohol and politics.
