The problem with CTV ads today

As more viewers shift to connected TV and OTT platforms, outdated monetization strategies fail to keep up with user behavior and platform dynamics.

Poor ad targeting → Lower CPMs

Traditional ad systems rely heavily on device IDs and app-based tracking, which don’t translate to shared-screen CTV environments. As a result, advertisers pay less due to weak targeting and generic audience segments.

Interruptive ad formats → Viewer churn

Standard mid-roll and banner ads feel intrusive on CTV, leading to frustration and higher bounce rates. This impacts viewer retention, decreasing total ad inventory value over time.

Limited inventory → Low fill rates

Many publishers can’t fully monetize their CTV traffic due to limited ad demand or poor optimization, leading to wasted impressions and low fill rates.
