Our take
Simulmedia is focused on making Tv advertising easier and more accessible. Traditionally, running ads on TV (especially national or cable networks) has been expensive and mostly limited to big brands. Simulmedia set out to change that by bringing the simplicity and data-driven approach of digital adversing into the world of television.
The company's platform allows businesses to plan, buy and measure TV ads in a much more streamlined way. With its newer product, Skybeam, advertisers can run campaigns across both streaming an traditional TV in one place. Instead of dealing with multiple vendors and complex negotiations, users can choose their audience, set a budget, and launch campaigns almost like they would online ads. This helps smaller businesses and agencies access TV audiences.
Simulmedia operates in a competitive space alongside other ad tech and TV measurement platforms, but it has stood out by adopting data and AI early to improve targeting and performance. With over 15 years of experience in national TV buying, it has built a strong expertise and credibility. Recent moves like unifying streaming and traditional TV into one platform show how it's adapting to changing viewing habits.
