NBCUniversal One Platform™
powers the TV of Today.
Our propriety ad tech stack, One Platform, is the first video platform to combine the power of professionally produced, culture-defining content with the benefits of “big tech”; first-party data, precision targeting, automated buying; and outcome-based measurement. In short, One Platform powers the Television of Today. Using advanced data-driven technologies, the TV of Today experience is as scaled, as relevant, and as personalized as a consumer’s social feed—but with the engagement only a big-screen experience can deliver. And deliver we do!
