Tell us a bit about your company

Unruly gets videos seen, shared and loved across the open web for brands that want to move people, not just reach people. By bringing emotional intelligence to digital advertising, we help 91% of Ad Age 100 brands inform and inspire 1.44bn people around the world, using polite outstream formats on sites that people love.

UnrulyX, the viewable video SSP, creates better ad experiences for consumers, improved brand outcomes for advertisers and increased revenues for top-flight publishers. Emotion matters in marketing. Emotion creates values and sets preferences. Inspires action. Drives sales.

Unruly has a decade’s data of consumer responses to video and uses that to hone content, model audiences and deploy ad dollars in ways that heighten emotional response and maximise brand impact.

Founded in 2006, Unruly was later acquired by News Corp (NASDAQ: NWS, NWSA; ASX: NWS, NWSLV) in 2015. With 300 Unrulies across 20 locations worldwide, our super power is emotional intelligence and our secret weapon is passionate people on a mission to #DeliverWow.

Any features you’d like to see added?

Nothing that springs to mind immediately. We rely on the CT team to come up with new sustainable features.

To decrease the outage emails sent erroneously​. i.e. getting an outage email when there’s no outage.
