OpenEPG show reports (beta)

See which streaming TV shows your CTV and mobile OTT ad traffic ran against, with invalid traffic by show.

Beta. The OpenEPG show reports are in beta. Features and coverage may change.

The OpenEPG reports break your ad traffic down by the TV show it ran against. Each row is a show, with the app it ran in, the market and time of day it ran most, its genre, and your gross ad counts and invalid traffic (IVT) for it.

Show-level attribution is Pixalate’s resolution of open-exchange bid stream signals against publicly available electronic program guide (EPG) data. It represents Pixalate’s best determination at the time of the impression. See the OpenEPG™ disclaimer.
