Google Ad Manager MCM for CTV

Google demand for CTV content owners, publishers and broadcasters.

Adte is a Google Ad Manager MCM partner built for connected TV. Our CTV buyers bring unique demand that's incremental to the sellers you already have - and in one unified auction they compete with Google AdX and several other programmatic buyers for every impression, on every platform you're on.

Illustrative. Every buyer competes in one auction for each impression.

The problem

Most FAST content is invisible to Google

Google no longer grants new Ad Exchange seats to most publishers. Its route for them is Multiple Customer Management (MCM): an approved partner brings Google demand to your inventory under a seat that sits in your own app-ads.txt.

On CTV that route is mostly unused, or run by web-first generalists that add Google and little else. Fewer buyers compete for each impression - and when fewer buyers compete, revenue is left on the table.

  • 31content owners have no Google line at all
  • Mostof the rest route Google demand through generalist web resellers

Why Adte

An MCM partner with CTV expertise

Unique, incremental CTV demand

Adte's own CTV buyers and curated CTV packages bring demand you won't get through other sellers - revenue on top of what you already earn.

One unified auction

Adte buyers, Google AdX and several other programmatic buyers compete for every impression, with Crossroads, our CTV ad server, running the auction. More bidders per impression is what moves the needle.
