To realize this goal, MediaGo has engaged in collaboration with GeoEdge since its foundation. MediaGo has effectively implemented a comprehensive, multi-tiered ad security audit system that includes:

• Pre-emptive landing page compliance checks: GeoEdge’s tools conduct thorough scans of landing pages before ads are launched. Post-launch, MediaGo continues with routine scans, utilizing GeoEdge’s technology to target and identify potential violation advertising, ensuring that ad landing pages remain safe and compliant throughout their lifecycle.
• Proprietary deep learning system: MediaGo’s in-house review system, underpinned by deep learning, is trained on extensive datasets, harnessing the power of AI to accurately categorize and block prohibited items.
• 24/7 manual monitoring: MediaGo’s dedicated review team constantly scrutinizes ad creatives and landing page content, certifying that all advertisements align with the stringent ad review policies.
• Advertiser qualification checks: Before advertisers onboard, MediaGo conducts a comprehensive assessment of all advertisers’ credentials, preemptively reducing the likelihood of low-quality or non-compliant ads.

“The strengthened collaboration with GeoEdge brings a new, forward-looking enhancement to MediaGo’s ad security review system,” says Brian Mun, Director of Global Partnerships, Baidu Global Business Unit. “The health of the ad ecosystem is critical to all stakeholders and users. MediaGo is committed to elevating ad quality, safeguarding the integrity of our advertising system, and diligently working to offer media partners and consumers the optimum advertising experience.”
