The Breakthrough AD Platform Delivers Addressable Campaigns at Scale for Advertisers across Leading Video Publishers, Pay TV Operators, and Streaming Devices

Tetra TV, LLC announced the launch of the industry’s first connected TV-focused advertising network.  Through pooling television ad inventory from more than 100 top streaming video content channels, Tetra TV delivers highly targeted campaigns at scale for advertisers.  Advertisers will be able to easily purchase inventory and dynamically insert ads across a wide variety of streaming platforms including Apple TV, Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Sony PlayStation, Xbox, as well as Smart TVs from Samsung, Vizio, Sony, and LG.

Tetra TV, led by a team of streaming media veterans previously at Roku, solves the cord-cutter challenge for advertisers by providing unduplicated reach across the 95M connected TV (CTV) US landscape.

“Ad-supported streaming TV is growing fast, but the viewing is fragmented across a wide array of devices and publishers creating siloed video ad inventory,” says Jim Lombard, Tetra TV’s chief revenue officer and co-founder. “Tetra TV navigates these complexities, unlocks premium ad inventory, and provides transparent reporting with universal measurement standards for advertisers looking to reach the growing streaming TV audience.”
