ADVERTISER CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT
Sensor Tower, ironSource | November 07, 2022
ironSource (NYSE: IS), a leading business platform for the App Economy, today announced its partnership with Sensor Tower, the leading source of enterprise-grade market intelligence for the digital ecosystem. By combining the keyword intelligence of Sensor Tower from across the market, with the campaign management and optimization capabilities of ironSource Luna, the partnership will create one place for app marketers to scale Apple Search Ads campaigns to drive incremental growth. ironSource Luna is the first to market with such a partnership with Sensor Tower.
The companies currently offer two complementary solutions. Sensor Tower offers a rich selection of industry data points, including share of impressions by app, competitor keyword analysis, and top advertisers. ironSource Luna gives app marketers the ability to manage and optimize Apple Search Ads campaigns by aggregating campaign data from all sources, utilizing an efficient bid optimization algorithm, and editing campaigns in bulk. Currently, app marketers extract market data from Sensor Tower, analyze it to see which keywords they’re already bidding against, and then import new keywords into Luna. This platform partnership will streamline this process, by making Sensor Tower’s data instantly and continuously accessible directly within the Luna platform, unifying keyword mining with keyword management and optimization.
“Continuously unlocking scale is one of the key challenges for marketers growing their app business. The best way to achieve scale with Apple Search Ads is to programmatically discover, test and optimize thousands of relevant keywords, and this partnership is a huge step in empowering marketers using Luna to do that,” explains Adam Stevens, VP Product at ironSource Luna. “Now, app marketers will be able to unlock new keywords and then seamlessly execute campaign adjustments in a fully automated way, all in one platform. We’re delighted to be the first app marketing platform to partner with Sensor Tower, helping app marketers to reach their full potential.”
“Our ad and app intelligence products provide our customers with powerful insights into the market and competitors to help them grow with Apple Search Ads,” explains Greg Rosen, Chief Product Officer at Sensor Tower.

Pontiac Intelligence | November 08, 2022
Pontiac Intelligence, a modern and transparent programmatic advertising platform, announced the launch of a proprietary Connected TV (CTV) Bidder at the inaugural Pontiac Summit. Pontiac unveiled the newest ad buying technology product that enables advertisers of all sizes and budgets to purchase OTT and CTV across the connected TV landscape via Pontiac’s direct pipes.
Pontiac is empowering users to buy commercials on ad supported streaming services such as Discovery, Xumo, FuboTV, TubiTV, SlingTV, and others.
“The major DSPs have built battleships to handle the amount of traffic which comes from display, native, etc. CTV doesn’t need a battleship. It needs a speedboat, and our proprietary bidder is a speedboat that will be both more efficient and cost effective,” says Pontiac CEO, Keith Gooberman.
