Tokyo, February 1, 2019 --- Hakuhodo DY Media Partners Inc., Hakuhodo DY digital Inc., D.A.Consortium Inc. (DAC), and DAC subsidiary Platform One Inc. (P1) have launched Brand View Instream Ad^TM (Brand View), a programmatic instream video ad service that limits ad deliveries to just premium video content.

＜Brand View Instream Ad^TM logo＞

Brand View was developed to realize top-quality, premium instream video advertising in all aspects. By restricting the placement of ads to only carefully curated, premium media channels and video content, Brand View eradicates headaches about brand safety (whether or not ads are being placed on inappropriate sites or in inappropriate content) and ad fraud (whether or not illicit ad impressions or clicks are taking place), two major concerns in today’s online video ad landscape. Brand View also offers outstanding ad engagement quality in terms of ad view-through rate (percentage of ads played to the end), viewability (whether an ad is displayed appropriately so that a user can see it), and other metrics. Various targeting options are available, based on data provided by DAC’s AudienceOne^® (*1) and other data management platforms (DMPs), for ad deployments with superior precision and efficiency. The unique product features of Brand View make it a valuable tool in situations where advertisers require the very highest marketing quality, especially corporate and product branding.

Product features
・Programmatic instream video ads
・Carefully curated placement media channels: online services that repeat broadcast content from private TV networks (TV network sites, TVer, and others), GYAO! (*2)
・Carefully curated video content: terrestrial TV broadcast programs from private networks, video content available on GYAO!
Restricting delivery to these channels eliminates any possibility of ads being run in user-uploaded videos, illegal videos, or other unsuitable content
・Targeted deliveries with use of DMPs (AudienceOne^® and others)
・High engagement quality: outstanding ad completion rates, viewability, audibility (whether the ad is audible when played), ad attention rates (whether the viewer’s gaze is fixed on the ad), and other metrics

The Hakuhodo DY Group is committed to pioneering data applications and developing new sales methods and products for all areas of mass media ads and digital media ads, and it constantly strives to address the many marketing issues advertisers face in the fast-moving media landscape.
