StreetMetrics Launches Partnership with Hilite Outdoor
StreetMetrics (Techstars ATL ‘19), the only independent third party measurement provider dedicated to out-of-home (OOH) ads that move, announced Toronto-based Hilite Outdoor as the newest addition to its network of media partners.
“We are very excited to partner with StreetMetrics. Combining the massive reach of DOOH with their advanced measurement solution gives us an innovative edge that makes our clients choose Hilite Outdoor over other DOOH providers. In addition, being able to retarget audiences who have seen our on-the-street at eye-level digital ads makes a Hilite campaign spark a brand’s conversation with its customer” said Hilite Outdoor CEO and Founder Solomon Misghina.
Hilite Outdoor, the first car-based digital media operator in Canada, provides high-resolution digital screens to rideshare drivers in densely populated urban areas. Their smart, taxi-top style screens play dynamic ad content based on vehicle location and time of day, allowing brands to deliver high-impact messaging to their target audiences at eye-level. Drivers who place Hilite’s screens atop their vehicles enjoy additional income.
“Hilite Outdoor understands the power that digital brings to out of home ads. Digital out of home is growing at a rapid pace – programmatic delivery through street-level screens in motion makes it even more powerful” said StreetMetrics CEO and Founder Drew Jackson. “However, until recently, the measurement tech needed to verify this power was missing. Now, with a purpose-built solution from StreetMetrics, moving digital media companies like Hilite can finally validate the impact of their media. Hilite has embraced the digital out of home revolution, and we’re here to support them with industry leading measurement to ensure that the performance of every ad play is properly gauged.”
A measurement and attribution software provider, StreetMetrics provides an online platform to buyers and sellers of moving ads so they can track their ads’ performance in near-real time. Using GPS data from vehicles and matching it with geo location data from mobile devices, StreetMetrics can measure impressions at the ad play level, conduct mobile retargeting and provide attribution studies for media operators and agencies.
“As digital out of home grows, so too does the need for accurate and actionable measurement. StreetMetrics’ technology has been designed to address this need by providing agencies and operators of moving digital media with performance data at the ad play level” said Jackson. “Partnering with Hilite in Canada is another step towards our goal of becoming the global standard measurement provider for moving media, one that both buyers and sellers can trust.”
