Channels · Video

Video that gets watched through.

In-stream, outstream, rewarded. We optimize not for impressions but for VTR and post-view conversions. One creative becomes dozens of aspect ratios.

Formats

Three roles for video in the funnel.

In-stream

Pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll on premium inventory with professional video content. VAST and VPAID, skippable and non-skippable.

Outstream

Video in the feed or between paragraphs of content. Triggered by viewability, no dedicated video placement required.

Rewarded

Rewarded video in games and apps. 85%+ VTR: users watch through for the reward.

Optimization

Metrics that matter more than CPM.

  • VTR (view-through rate) — the share of complete views
  • Completion rate by quartile: 25 / 50 / 75 / 100%
  • Post-view conversions — conversions without a click
  • Viewability per MRC: 50% of pixels for 2 seconds
  • Audible view: with sound or muted
