NinaData Raises $2M to Help Brands Reach Consumers When They’re Making a Buying Decision Without Using Cookies or IDFA

NinaData leverages purpose-built Knowledge Graphs and Deep Learning AI to solve the removal of cookies and IDFA which have caused higher costs for advertisers

Finnish buying intent platform NinaData has raised $2M USD in funding to help brands connect with audiences in a meaningful privacy-first environment by leveraging its proprietary AI. The round was a hybrid of equity from previous investors, and public and private loans completing the round. The funding will be used to further accelerate the development and adoption of NinaData’s purpose-built AI for contextual buying intent.

NinaData helps brands to reach consumers at the exact moment they are making a purchase decision online. NinaData’s contextual data platform uses purpose-built AI for the semantic analysis of text, video and images to build sustainable data value and insights for brands and content owners, and drive in-moment online results for brands. By using proprietary algorithms, NinaData provides URL-level buying intent classification for individual campaigns and destinations.

Third-party cookies, the staple tool for targeting ads at online users, are becoming obsolete. Google will stop supporting them by 2023. With Apple giving the users the choice to block the IDFA identifier on an app level, advertisers no longer have the option to monitor user behavior on non-browser apps. Users are more aware of how their data is utilized and concerned about privacy issues. Companies need to find solutions that transition towards responsible and sustainable advertising, and for non-intrusive personalization which prioritizes user experience and trust as the new normal.
