We’re excited to unlock the full potential of streaming TV advertising and help brands maximize their impact in this rapidly evolving space.”

The platform affords businesses and brands a number of features that offer granular control over their campaigns, including the ability to scale their campaigns; a single account for multiple advertisers, which is “perfect for agencies and digital marketing professionals;” QR code placement over creatives; custom landing pages; and minimum-free budgets.
