MediaMath

MediaMath said it made a deal to make Tru Optik’s Data Marketplace available in its connected TV media buying platform.

MediaMath’s digital supply chain Source infrastructure gives buyer access to CTV inventory with fee visibility and fraud protections. Adding Tru Optik’s data is part of MediaMath’s agnostic approach to identity at a time when cookies are being eliminated.

"We partnered with Tru Optik because of their innovative data-driven CTV targeting technology and we're excited to continue maximizing the ROI of customers' advertising efforts as they diversify their marketing budgets. This integration is an important piece of Source's mission to redesign the digital media landscape without the use of third-party cookies."
