Ad Specs
One experience, multiple ways to explore
VDX ad formats use a standardized template to deliver repeatable scale and performance, while also including flexibility to adapt to the objectives of your campaign strategy.
How does it work?
An initial video teaser with brand logo draws consumer attention and entices the user to interact with the ad. Upon consumer interaction, the teaser transforms into the main unit with a branded canvas, allowing for personalized creative messaging, CTA and other interactive features to drive the brand’s objectives. VDX, which is available in OTT, In-stream, In-frame, and Expandable units, includes viewability, anti-fraud capabilities and brand safety mechanisms across different platforms.
