“We’re excited about this partnership because it opens the door for more local buyers to access the benefits of CTV advertising,” said Keith Kazerman, President of Gamut. “Brands can leverage customized ads to targeted streaming audiences at scale, without the heavy lift and budget of traditional video ad creation. On the other side of the equation, publishers want to provide viewers with sponsored content that feels relevant, tailored, and varied – that’s what local CTV advertising brings, and what we want to enable.”

“Together, Gamut and Waymark give content providers and advertisers everything they need to accomplish their mutual goals,” added Alex Persky-Stern, CEO of Waymark. “Gamut has access to the inventory – and then taps into Waymark to offer that additional layer of video production at scale for local and regional ad partners with our AI-powered creative tools.”

Gamut and Waymark’s partnership offers an opportunity to bring advanced, comprehensive support to local advertisers, meeting the increasing demand for localized advertising in the TV industry, particularly in CTV. This announcement introduces an innovative and powerful option for prospective SMB advertisers to seamlessly buy local CTV ads, quickly produce go-to-market-ready creative ad messages, and measure impact all in one place.
