ADVERTISING
“Project OAR” (as in Open Addressable Ready) is a new consortium with the goal of putting together a technology platform and media partners capable of delivering targeted advertising in linear and on-demand on smart TVs – by 2020. Count in AMC Networks,Disney Media Networks, NBCUniversal, Discovery, CBS, AT&T, Xander, Turner and Hearst Television. Vizio’s Inscape will develop OAR’s enabling technology. “TV programmers reach a massive and passionate audience, but have lacked the precision targeting of digital,” said Mike Dean, SVP of advanced advertising and automation at CBS. “Through OAR, CBS will combine relevance with our reach to deliver a better experience to our viewers and better ROI for our advertisers.”
Facebook is phasing out its Ad Relevance Score, launched in 2015 to offer advertisers insight into ad performance. Instead of measuring relevance in one metric, the social media giant will introduce three more specific ad relevance diagnostic metrics. “We think this will offer reporting that’s more actionable for businesses,” said Facebook.
Drive-to-store platform
S4M is releasing a new ad format, the Pass-to-Store, offering advertisers a method to increase incremental in-store visits with smart proximity-based push notification retargeting. Shoppers download a card with a promotion or invitation offered by an advertiser, which is then saved to their mobile phone wallet. Then the Pass-to-Store ad can trigger a location-based notification to remind consumers of their available offer as they enter into a designated proximity of a store location or an event venue.
Ad intelligence and sales enablement platform
MediaRadar has introduced “RFP Predictor” to its suite of solutions. RFP Predictor reveals which brands will be reviewing proposals, to help ad sales teams anticipate the average 1,000+ RFPs issued per quarter. “One of the most frustrating things for any publisher is learning that you only have a few days to complete a lengthy RFP,” said
Todd Krizelman, CEO of MediaRadar. “Our RFP Predictor solves this problem, empowering sales teams to be one step ahead.”
STREAM, BABY, STREAM
Disney’s upcoming streaming service, Disney+, will “enjoy early strong demand,” according to The Diffusion Group President Michael Greeson. “The amount of high-quality content being packed into the offering will make it not only appealing, but very sticky.” TDG research found half of U.S. adults will consider the service, while a quarter of them are moderately to highly likely to subscribe. Legacy pay-TV subscribers showed more interest than cord-nevers and cord-cutters.
Streaming service NBC News Now will launch in early May with eight hours of programming, announced NBC News President Noah Oppenheim. The free, ad-supported offering will include live updates every hour. “We will be doing original work that will be specific for the streaming service,” as well as drawing from the reporting on other NBC News properties like E! News and sports, said Oppenheim.
DirecTV Now is cutting its subscriber packages from five to two: DirecTV Now Plus, which offers 40+ channels for $50/month, and DirecTV Max, with 50+ channels for $70/month. Both options include HBO, but drop some cable entertainment channels. Existing customers can keep their packages for an increase of $10/month. AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said in December that the company would be refining the offerings and raising the price.

TOOL TIME
Google announced a suite of tools aimed at helping mobile game developers grow their business, and encompasses pre-launch, launch, and post-launch. Included are Ad Campaigns for App Engagement, to help brands find and retain users who have the app installed on their phone but have not been using it, and Smart Segmentation, which uses machine learning to segment players based on their likelihood to spend on an in-app purchase.
Twitter is rolling out a new camera feature that makes sharing photos and videos easier. Swipe left, and a camera allows users to snap a photo or take a looping video by tapping or holding a capture button, and tap a “live” button to broadcast a stream.
Funimation, the global anime content provider and a subsidiary of Sony Pictures Television, licensed the Search, Recommendations and Insight modules of TiVo’s Personalized Content Discovery platform. The use of PCD platform’s integrated reporting and analytics insights module enables Funimation to test, manage and fine tune search and recommendation performance in real time.
Univision’s Uforia and Napstar partnered to drive and discover ways to deliver audio across digital platforms. Through the deal, Uforia unveiled its enhanced and redesigned app “Powered by Napster.”
Slomo.tv, producer of SSD-based video record and replay systems, is launching its second generation Fulcrum AT/12G 4K instant replay server. The new version offers broadcast production companies 10 channels in replay mode at 4K resolution and up to 16 channels in replay mode for 3G/HD/SD, with a compact 4K server system that enables advanced slow motion and instant replay capabilities as well as direct recording of NLE Native video files for editing on site. The automatic creation of clips during instant replays is a Slomo.tv proprietary feature, which allows the operator to quickly create highlights/summary packages while working in instant replay mode.
COMING SOON
Apple is expected to announce its magazine subscription service at a March 25 press event, possibly unveiling a TV streaming service to compete directly with Netflix and Hulu. Apple News Magazines will allow subscribers download and store publications for offline reading, and readers can receive pop-up notification when publishers post their latest issues.
