-The company reveals attention customers in 2023 have already surpassed attention customers in 2022

-The milestone comes right after the launch of Universal Attention Segments and the appointment of a new Head of Attention, highlighting DV’s momentum in attention measurement

DoubleVerify (“DV”), a premier software platform for digital media measurement, data, and analytics, has revealed that nearly 80 advertisers have activated DV Authentic Attention campaigns in 2023, surpassing the total number of advertisers that activated campaigns throughout 2022.

DV Authentic Attention is an MRC-accredited, privacy-friendly measurement solution independent of cookies. It analyzes more than 50 data points at the impression level, assessing the exposure of a digital ad and consumer engagement with a digital ad and device, in real time. For exposure, DV measures an ad’s entire presentation, quantifying its intensity and prominence through metrics that include viewable time, share of the screen, video presentation, audibility, and more. In terms of engagement, DV examines key user-initiated events that occur during ad exposure, such as user touches, screen orientation, video playback, and audio control interactions. These measures of exposure and engagement contribute to the DV Attention Index—an overarching gauge of attention offering critical insights into campaign performance.

“DV Authentic Attention measurement continues to gain momentum with first-quarter test volumes doubling and campaign activations tripling year-over-year,” said Dan Slivjanovski, CMO, DoubleVerify. “Our pioneering work in attention goes beyond thought leadership. DV has real programmatic activation and measurement solutions that are at the forefront of driving attention as a currency and generating material campaign outcomes for the global brands we serve.”

Just last week, DV announced the debut of Universal Attention Segments, which empower brands and agencies to optimize campaign performance at scale pre-bid by highlighting inventory characterized by high attention.
