Quality
Index partners with leading media owners, marketers, and DSPs to provide access to a diverse spectrum of premium inventory and demand. We review all inventory and ad creatives so you can trust that you’re transacting in an environment that only enhances your brand.
Efficiency and control
Our history of innovation drove us to design a new platform built for efficiency. Our inventory management and curation tools help connect media owners and marketers at scale, resulting in optimized returns and reduced costs.
Custom deals and curated inventory packages streamline access to relevant, addressable inventory to create a vibrant private marketplace and enable more efficient buys.
Transparency
Index continues to lead in bringing accountability and transparency to the streaming TV supply chain–including co-authoring ads.cert 2.0, contributing to the development of OpenRTB 2.6, and providing a receipt for every transaction.
We require all streaming TV supply to include correctly implemented ads.txt, app-ads.txt, and sellers.json standards so marketers can confidently buy through direct and authorized selling channels, while ensuring media owners preserve the value of their inventory.
