Roku has been at the forefront of addressability, with robust first-party data from the platform’s 83.6 million Streaming Households.

“The adoption of Unified ID 2.0 represents another step forward in Roku’s strategic programmatic path, rooted in our goal to revolutionize the ad ecosystem,” said Jay Askinasi, SVP, Head of Global Media Revenue and Growth, Roku. “By further partnering with The Trade Desk, we aim to enhance targeting capabilities, improve ad performance and efficacy to drive growth, and maintain our leadership position in the TV streaming space.”
