STAQ, the automated reporting platform as a service for digital advertising, today announced a major feature release that gives publishers normalized advertiser transparency across demand channels. Exchanges and major sell side platforms (SSPs), have been increasingly giving publishers visibility into their advertiser bidding activity, such as pricing and placement preferences. Publishers gain significant advantage when they have advertiser insights across demand partners, giving sellers and operations teams visibility and control on programmatic channels that buyers have long had. While there have been requests and coalition projects for an industry standardization of this data, STAQ’s new feature unifies it today and publishers are now empowered to aggregate a complete advertiser demand view from across their exchanges.
“Normalized advertiser data from STAQ gives our revenue teams insights that help us identify advertisers for direct and PMP deals, optimize our floor prices, monitor PMP deal health across partners and understand demand patterns across our products all in a centralized location,” said Steve Mummey of AccuWeather. “What would have taken weeks to aggregate transparency data manually, STAQ gives us automatically, so we can act on new information quickly.”
