Moloco | February 24, 2023
On February 23, 2023, Moloco, a performance advertising and operational machine learning (ML) company, launched a monetization solution for streaming media and OTT providers with ML support, assisting content owners with increased revenue.
Through a combination of machine learning and unique first-party data, this solution would support content owners in building individual ad businesses for higher revenue from increased customer reach than the traditional linear TV business ads. The rise in demand for video streaming gave media owners and distributors business opportunities, but they need help in building digital businesses on a large scale. They require an advanced solution than business practices that only work on linear TV. For successful digital advertising, streaming platforms want advertisers with different goals, simplifying the advertising processes and accelerating ROI for ad budgets.
Media companies must fulfill consumer expectations for engaging content and user experience, needing an access to the technology for business digital advertising. As a result, they invest mainly in machine learning for building big companies through a combination of first-party data and ML. Moloco is one of those technology platforms, providing a complete programmatic solution for content publishers.
Head of Moloco Enterprise, Herman Yang, said, “Our media partners have created rich consumer offerings with content, audiences, and digital experiences that are unique to their business.” He added, “Our goal is to help platforms build a scalable and profitable ad business with Moloco’s machine learning technology by creating unique experiences for users and opportunities for their advertisers.”

SeaChange will launch the Xstream platform formally on January 6th and begin onboarding customers in the first quarter of the new fiscal year.

As a leading technology vendor, SeaChange combines the deep expertise needed to provide premium user experiences on connected devices, a DNA to deliver end-to-end streaming solutions, and an unmatched product suite for smart ad insertion management."
