VisualDNA Integrates With Adap.tv, Advertising.com, DataXu, Krux & Rocketfuel

LONDON, December 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    Audience insights company VisualDNA has completed the integration of its data with
five new technology platforms; Adap.tv and Advertising.com both part of AOL Networks;
DataXu, Krux and Rocketfuel. The partnerships will increase the availability of VisualDNA
data for advertisers and publishers as the market for big data in digital marketing
continues to expand - both for pre-packaged segments bought in DSPs, and custom audiences
built within DMPs.

    VisualDNA segments, created using self-declared first-party data collected from online
quizzes, are already available through AppNexus, DoubleClick Bid Manager, MediaMath, Turn,
and Videology. The addition of Adap.tv, Advertising.com, Rocketfuel and DataXu means that
brands using these platforms can now use VisualDNA's high quality demographic, brand
preference, lifestyle and emotive data segments to target niche audiences at scale.

    VisualDNA has also sought to partner with DMPs - platforms that bring together
multiple data sources, such as social network data, CRM data and third party data to power
business analytics and smart targeted marketing - as the market for big data in marketing
has grown beyond targeted programmatic advertising. VisualDNA data can be integrated with
a publisher or retailer's own CRM data to create custom audience segments in DMPs - the
partnerships with DataXu and Krux means more marketers can now capitalise on VisualDNA's
powerful profiling technology to build a more detailed picture of their audiences and
reach them at scale.

    Brian O'Sullivan, MD of Media, VisualDNA, said: "Programmatic has continued its
impressive progress through 2013, and our sales have grown rapidly. We think this growth
will accelerate in 2014, as the range and quality of data available continues to improve,
platforms continue to innovate, and advertisers dedicate more brand campaign spend to
programmatic."

    "Given our expertise in online personality profiling, we've invested heavily in
psychographic data -creating both a la carte segments for DSPs, and integrations that
allow marketers to build rich custom audiences using DMPs. It's now possible to segment an
audience online as you would in the offline world and we expect demand for emotive data to
grow as digital marketing gets smarter."

    In addition to rich self-declared, first-party demographic and lifestyle data,
VisualDNA's patented visual personality quizzes uniquely capture 'emotive' data online.
VisualDNA's team of psychologists and data scientists then create data that informs
marketers about a consumer's personality traits, aspirations and motivations: the factors
that lead consumers to choose one brand over another.

    Quiz data are anonymised and scaled using VisualDNA's propriety inference engine -
which matches the online behaviour of known 'quizzed' consumers with that of a wider
network unknown 'cookied' users - to create segments. This allows brands to reach
incredibly targeted audiences - much in the same way that they can profile and segment a
physical audience - but online, at scale, and in real time. Emotive data gives brands a
far clearer picture of online audiences: deeper understanding that's expected to encourage
brands to apportion more advertising spend to digital marketing.

    Brian Fitzpatrick, Managing Director, EMEA, AdapTV: "We are delighted to include
VisualDNA data segments on the Adap.tv platform. Data is quickly becoming a standard part
of brand advertiser campaigns and VisualDNA provides some of the most accurate information
in the industry."

    David Shapiro, VP Corporate & Business Development at DataXu said: "DataXu's
programmatic marketing platform enables the world's leading agencies and brands to
increase the efficiency of their digital marketing investments. The integration with
partners such as VisualDNA is a critical part to making marketing more efficient,
effective and easy. Further, integrating with VisualDNA offers our global clients an
additional rich dataset, allowing them to reach and connect with consumers in even more
targeted and effective ways."

    Richard Foster, MD of Europe, Krux Digital said: ""Krux is the only full-service
platform for digital companies to manage all their data - web, mobile and offline - in one
place. Our new integration with VisualDNA further enriches our clients' abilities to
understand their audience data by accessing the rich demographic, brand, lifestyle and
psychographic data from VisualDNA's large European network."

    David Nelson, European Product Director, Rocketfuel: "We see VisualDNA as having a
stand out offering. Their use of declared user interest and not implied is a key
differentiator and we're thrilled to now be partnering with them. This quality data,
harnessed with the power of Artificial Intelligence, bolsters Rocket Fuel's ability to
improve marketing ROI in digital media."
