Over-The-Top & Connected TV Ads | Genius Monkey

Product overview

OTT ads and CTV commercials connect your brand to users consuming premier, episodic, video content.

Optimize OTT+CTV allows you to take a more targeted and measurable approach when compared to traditional television. Unlike linear TV, Genius Monkey’s numerous behavioral data partnerships allow you to reach your ideal customers right where they are, no matter what device or channel they are on. From watching Football on Sunday to their favorite sitcom on a weekday, Genius Monkey has access to follow your audience where they are, across all channels. And with Genius Monkey’s proprietary Attribution Tracking technology, you’ll understand exactly how well your connected TV campaigns perform because our technology tracks users who complete a conversion on your website on any device after previously watching an OTT+CTV commercial on another device like a TV. To your benefit, you only pay when an individual actually completes your OTT+CTV ad, rather than paying for impressions!

Best of all, you can track conversions on your website from prospective customers who viewed your OTT+CTV ads, even if they saw the ad on their Smart TV!
