Roku and The Trade Desk Announce New Data-Driven TV Streaming Partnership
SAN JOSE, Calif. Roku, the #1 TV streaming platform in the U.S.*, announced plans for a new data-driven TV streaming partnership with The Trade Desk, the largest independent global advertising technology leader, to equip advertisers with better planning, buying, and measurement of TV streaming media. Roku plans to empower advertisers using The Trade Desk with the ability to leverage Roku Media and audience and behavioral data, so that The Trade Desk customers can better understand and optimize their campaigns for TV streaming viewers.
As the TV streaming ecosystem grows increasingly crowded and complex, advertisers are looking for the most efficient and performant way to cut through the noise and reach viewers at scale. By leveraging Roku’s automatic content recognition data, advertisers using The Trade Desk can suppress incremental households that have seen their linear TV ads — a capability advertisers have had directly with Roku, now available in an independent media buying platform on Roku Media. Through Roku’s more than 81M Streaming Households, advertisers can find meaningful outcomes through scale, premium inventory, and optimization capabilities that will help efficiently maximize ad spend.

It’s simple to use and highly effective at reducing waste for buyers, and it will improve the ad experience for our millions of viewers.”
“CTV has emerged as one of the most powerful digital advertising channels on the open internet, and this new partnership with Roku will enable The Trade Desk’s clients to put valuable new data insights to work and fully optimize their campaigns,” said Jed Dederick, Chief Revenue Officer, The Trade Desk. “We are excited by Roku’s focus on interoperability and thrilled to forge a closer partnership as we bring the full power of the open internet to bear for all advertisers.”
