AirOps Launches Offsite To Expand AI Search Visibility Beyond Owned Content
As AI driven search rapidly reshapes how brands are discovered, marketers are realizing that visibility no longer depends solely on what they publish on their own websites. AirOps has announced the launch of Offsite, a new solution designed to extend AI search visibility beyond owned content and into the broader web that influences how large language models surface and recommend brands. The announcement marks a significant step for the MarTech ecosystem as AI search visibility becomes a core growth lever.
AirOps said Offsite is the first comprehensive system built to help brands identify high value publishers, secure placements that AI systems actively reference, and measure the visibility lift from every third party mention. With this launch, AirOps now offers coverage across both onsite and offsite signals that shape AI driven discovery.
Nexxen and H/L Partner To Drive Smarter CTV Advertising Performance
As connected television continues to reshape how audiences consume content, advertisers are rethinking how they reach viewers whose attention is increasingly fragmented across platforms and devices. Nexxen and H/L are partnering to address this shift, combining advanced data, signal driven insights, and modern buying strategies to help brands navigate the expanding CTV ecosystem more effectively. The collaboration underscores why CTV has become a central focus for marketers seeking measurable outcomes rather than broad exposure.
Nexxen, a global advertising platform with deep expertise in data and advanced TV, is working with H/L to help advertisers adapt to the realities of today’s viewing environment. By leveraging Nexxen demand side platform and insights, H/L has delivered conversion lifts of up to fourteen times for clients across multiple verticals, demonstrating how signal backed CTV strategies can outperform traditional approaches.
Teads and Google TV Expand Global CTV HomeScreen Advertising
As connected television continues to command a growing share of media attention, Teads has announced a strategic partnership with Google TV to significantly expand access to premium CTV HomeScreen advertising inventory worldwide. The collaboration gives brands a new way to reach viewers at the very first point of engagement on connected TV devices, delivering high-impact visibility across major global markets including the United States and the United Kingdom.
The partnership centers on Google TV Masthead, one of the most prominent placements in the CTV ecosystem. HomeScreen ads appear as the first visual impression users see when they turn on their television, placing brands directly within a high-attention environment before content selection begins. With Google TV aggregating more than 400,000 movies and shows across over 10,000 apps, the HomeScreen has become a critical gateway for content discovery.
