(NYSE: SNAP) to provide advertisers with increased transparency across their Snapchat campaigns through IAS’s AI-driven Total Media Quality (TMQ) Brand Safety and Suitability Measurement product.

“We are excited to partner with Snap to deliver our best-in-class measurement solution for marketers to safeguard and scale their businesses on Snapchat,” said Lisa Utzschneider, CEO of IAS. “Snap is focused on developing ad offerings in a premium and safe content ecosystem, and our partnership will give advertisers actionable data to maximise their investment across Snapchat.”

Aligned to the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) standards, the new offering will benefit advertisers from third-party validation with trusted and transparent industry metrics. IAS’s Total Media Quality product provides unique insight into video content through frame-by-frame analysis of images, audio, and text to provide the most accurate measurement at scale.
