DoubleVerify Granted MRC Accreditation for Digital Video Impression Quality Solution

Newly accredited features include Video Ad Viewability

NEW YORK, Jan. 13, 2015 — (PRNewswire) —   DoubleVerify, the leader in digital performance solutions, has been granted accreditation from the Media Rating Council for the company's next-generation digital impression quality suite — now including video ad viewability — which provides advertisers and their media partners with greater transparency and control over the quality of their digital promotion.

DoubleVerify's Video+ product suite provides insights and controls over the impression quality, viewability and engagement of a digital video ad campaign. The new product also enables advertisers to block a video ad before it is served in a sub-standard environment.

"DV Video+ safeguards brands against unsafe content, ensures optimal player size and the quality of the environment where the ad is served, and — for the first time — key metrics within the suite are accredited to provide the actionable viewability and engagement data that our partners have been looking for to fuel their media decisions," says Matt McLaughlin, COO of DoubleVerify. "Gaining MRC accreditation for these advanced features and validation of the DV methodology further solidifies our company's commitment to providing best in class solutions that build a better industry."

"MRC accreditation of the DV Impression Quality services, including video ad viewability measurement, is a clear sign of DoubleVerify's ongoing commitment to advancing the overall quality of the digital advertising ecosystem," said George W. Ivie, Executive Director and CEO of the MRC.  "We congratulate them on achieving this distinction."

DV Video+ authenticates the quality and impact of digital video ad campaigns across these four key areas:
