The Maven Internet TV Advertising Platform introduces a series of new, non-proprietary formats that are significantly more engaging than pre-roll ads, create a better user experience and deliver higher value ad units for advertisers. The new ad formats take full advantage of in-video interactivity through the use of transparent overlays and video telescoping, and are intelligently placed within video streams to create additional, previously unavailable ad inventory.

"Ogilvy is working with Maven to help evolve the platform to create new formats in online video advertising that truly reach the right target at the right time with the right message -- it is the holy grail Holy Grail: see Grail, Holy.

Advanced inventory management and forecasting capabilities allow for greater advertising sales efficiencies to ensure all available ad inventory is sold and delivered. The result is an exponential increase in ad inventory within short and long-form video content that media companies can make immediately available.
