Outstream video has redefined how brands connect with audiences, providing engaging, non-intrusive ad experiences that yield meaningful results across screens. Leading this evolution is Teads’InRead Video, the original outstream format designed to deliver high-attention advertising within MFA-free, premium environments. Complemented by a seamless omnichannel approach, includingCTV Video, InRead ensures brands achieve measurable outcomes while forging meaningful consumer connections.
Earlier in 2024, Google’s alignment with the IAB’s updated definitions for instream and outstream video advertising marked a significant industry shift. Google AdX now requires instream video to be sound-on and user-initiated. This shift has redefined inventory categorization and pricing, underscoring the value of premium outstream formats.
Historically, some SSPs flagged inventory as instream to capture higher CPMs despite failing to meet these stricter definitions. With Google enforcing compliance, the demand for quality outstream solutions is growing—an area whereTeads’ InRead Video leads the way by delivering exceptional outcomes for brands.
