USIM Teams Up with IRIS.TV to Transform CTV Advertising with AI-Driven Insights

USIM, a leader in innovative media solutions, has announced a groundbreaking partnership with IRIS.TV, the premier content data marketplace for streaming media. This collaboration will leverage IRIS.TV’s content identifier, the IRIS_ID, to elevate the creative and media effectiveness of connected TV (CTV) campaigns. As part of this alliance, USIM’s Programmatic Division, Quantum11, now offers enhanced precision and engagement, allowing brands to connect with audiences in more impactful and measurable ways.

In today’s fragmented CTV landscape, reaching the right customer at the optimal moment has become an increasingly complex challenge. USIM’s partnership with IRIS.TV addresses this challenge by offering cutting-edge solutions that transform video-level data into actionable insights, driving full-funnel performance and Return on Ad Spend (ROAS).

Over 70 million videos from streaming apps, channels, and smart TVs—such as LG, Vizio, Univision, and Xumo—now feature IRIS_IDs. These videos are analyzed by top-tier AI models to generate standardized data around context, emotion, and brand suitability. Through partnerships with leading AI companies, including 4D Advanced Contextual, Captify, Connected IQ, GumGum, Illuma, KERV.ai, Mobian, Pixability, Reticle, Samba TV, Sightly, Silverpush, and SpotRunner, IRIS.TV ensures robust insights into CTV viewing. With access to “IRIS-enabled” inventory and data, USIM can now target CTV viewers with precision and scale.
