SeenThis offers a proprietary adaptive streaming technology that allows advertisers to stream high-quality video with instant load times, using less data, which avoids excessive carbon emissions. Rather than download entire files like conventional technology, SeenThis adaptive streaming ensures that the ads can be viewed as soon as the ad slot enters the users screen, improving user experience while minimizing any data transfer that is not necessary.
“SeenThis is an extremely valuable partner for Clarín. This technology allows us to create innovative advertising opportunities for our clients while reducing carbon emissions. We care deeply about sustainability and are proud to be the first in Argentina to have adopted this advertising solution two years ago that combines exceptional performance with a focus on emissions reduction,” said Maximiliano Sastre, CCO at Clarín
“Clarin is a respected major publisher in Latin America, and we are excited to work with them to deliver both innovation at scale and emissions avoidance. Today, both publishers and advertisers are starting to combine campaign goals with sustainability goals, and it is our strategy to help them achieve both effectively,” said Thomas Houge at SeenThis.
