The partnership brings together two market-leading technologies. Mirriad‘s virtual product placement insertion technology will be integrated with Harmonic‘s VOS®360 SaaS, enabling broadcasters to achieve individual targetability at massive scale.
Harmonic’s VOS360 SaaS provides unparalleled agility, resiliency, security and scalability for a superior viewing experience, with server-side ad insertion for monetization and personalization features. Mirriad increases ad inventory by enabling premium monetization, without increasing the number or minutes of commercials shown each hour.
“We are thrilled to partner with Harmonic and provide broadcasters with a powerful solution for dynamic brand insertion,” said Mark Melvin, general manager at Mirriad. “Harmonic’s VOS360 SaaS enables our virtual product placement insertion technology to function with frame accuracy, making in-content advertising a highly targeted and scalable ad format that doesn’t further disrupt the viewer experience. This is truly the future of advertising.”
Harmonic will showcase this integrated dynamic brand insertion solution at the 2023 NAB Show in Las Vegas. To schedule a meeting with Harmonic, in booth W2801.
