Key Reasons Streaming Services Choose Kochava

Marketers and developers at major streaming services who have selected Kochava consistently cite three key factors behind their decision:

1. Unified Measurement Support in a Fragmented Ecosystem

Streaming services are expected to provide apps for taking in content across a fragmented ecosystem of smart TVs, OTT set boxes, gaming consoles, and mobile. Capturing the full picture of user engagement across all connected devices is key to formulating a holistic strategy for user acquisition, engagement, and retention.

Streaming services leveraging Kochava have access to a vast library of software development kits (SDKs) that provide turnkey app measurement support across devices and platforms.

Kochava supports measurement across a great many devices, smart TVs, and CTV platforms, including:

  • Apple TV
  • Android TV
  • Fire TV
  • LG
  • Roku
  • Samsung
  • VIZIO
  • Windows Xbox
  • and more…

2. Largest Footprint of CTV Growth Partners

Streaming services drive growth across an omnichannel media mix spanning mobile, social, web, and CTV. The ability to activate and measure campaigns with the partners you rely on is essential for optimizing user acquisition and return on ad spend (ROAS).

Kochava hosts the largest partner footprint of CTV & OTT media partners—a go-to source of growth potential for streaming services. Advertisers can tap into certified integrations across platform-direct, publisher-direct, and programmatic CTV partners to drive growth and engagement. These partners include Roku, VIZIO, Fire TV, LG Ads, Samsung Ads, MNTN, SKY, and more.

3. Accurate Same-Screen & Cross-Screen Attribution

Today’s consumer is active across multiple devices. A streaming service running ads on CTV has to consider that a user could convert either on the same screen or a different screen (i.e., mobile or web). Kochava helps streaming services refine their measurement strategy to account for the nuances of same-screen and cross-screen attribution—factoring in all possible user conversion paths.

We strive to help advertisers measure what matters. For streaming services large and small, that’s capturing viewer engagement signals across all connected devices where consumers stream their content. Connecting those touchpoints to marketing initiatives gives advertisers the data-driven insights to succeed.
