Future Today Integrates with Publica's Server-Side Ad Insertion Tech to Meet Growing CTV Ad-Demand

Publica's solution enables the seamless delivery of CTV advertising by stitching ads directly into the video stream, eliminating ad latency and buffering to deliver targeted and personalized ads in a viewing experience that matches traditional TV.

This superior viewing experience ensures that audiences remain highly engaged throughout ad breaks, which can greatly reduce drop-off rates while increasing brand retention. These features also benefit content providers and channel owners by maximizing their inventory yield and reducing viewer churn.

"We're thrilled to collaborate with Future Today and help maximize their CTV ad revenues," said Ben Antier, Co-Founder and CEO, Publica.  "Leveraging Publica's SSAI, Future Today can increase demand, provide programmatic advertisers with better ad break controls, and ensure a premium viewing experience for their streaming audiences."
