In this interview, Vlad Stesin, CSO and Co-Founder of Optable, shares his thoughts on identity strategy for publishers:
In 2025, publishers need to focus on identity solutions to regain lost programmatic revenue and improve addressability. Essential strategies involve establishing a robust first-party data foundation, developing their own identity graphs, and collaborating with partners like Optable and ID5 to fill gaps and restore signals.
Beyond merely enhancing bids, identity graphs present monetization opportunities through audience curation, data partnerships with brands or retailers, and expanded programmatic and direct sales opportunities. Optable equips publishers with the necessary tools to effectively develop, scale, and monetize their identity strategies.
For publishers and media companies, understanding your audience is everything. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Optable Insights, a new suite of tools designed to provide real-time visibility into your ID Graph and audience relationships.
