About

Was a leading independent global ad server for enterprise advertisers and agencies, differentiated by its independence from media sales and its cookieless identity capabilities; now absorbed into the Innovid brand under Mediaocean.

Flashtalking is an enterprise-grade ad serving and creative management platform built for advertisers and agencies running large-scale digital campaigns. Operating as the leading independent global ad server, it is designed for advertisers who want control of their own data and a clear separation between media sales, delivery, and measurement. Its technology combines dynamic creative optimization, cross-channel ad delivery, and granular performance measurement in a single stack, helping marketing operations teams manage creative assets, traffic campaigns, and extract performance data across display, video, social, and connected TV without manual workarounds. On the personalization side, Flashtalking enables advertisers to activate feeds and data through its Decision Trees interface, and it claims to be the world's first cookieless ad serving platform to orchestrate client identity for both measurement and personalization. Its analytics and reporting tools give advertisers a comprehensive view of the customer journey, while a dedicated verification suite covers fraud detection and viewability across desktop, mobile web, in-app, and CTV/OTT environments.
