DoubleVerify’s Propriety Metric, Authentic Impression, Gets Stronger After the Second Partnership. Advertisers Can Now Measure Viewability, Fraud, Brand Safety, and Suitability, Which Will Benefit Brands Worldwide

DoubleVerify provides measurement capabilities to its customers when they advertise on YouTube. Circa 2016, the company had previously partnered with the video hosting giant to offer measurement of viewability and fraud. Last week, both the companies partnered again to offer measurement of brand safety and suitability. This substantially bolsters DoubleVerify’s measurement platform to offer marketers a bird’s eye view on campaign effectiveness.

“We are excited to enter a new phase of partnership with YouTube,” said Wayne Gattinella, CEO of DoubleVerify. “Today, brand suitability is a core advertiser expectation — across all media types and buying platforms. With our expanded partnership, DoubleVerify is ensuring brand suitability on the world’s leading online video platform.”
