Performance @Teads
Following the merger of Teads and Outbrain in 2025, a powerful and differentiated Performance portfolio has emerged, enabling brands to drive measurable outcomes across the open web and Connected TV. By combining exclusive premium supply (inRead, Feed, CTV) with cutting-edge AI optimization, Teads now empowers Enterprise advertisers to generate high-quality traffic, engagement, and conversions - while maintaining the highest standards of brand safety and quality.
