About

Leading smart TV OS-based advertising platform leveraging LG Electronics' global installed base and proprietary ACR data for CTV audience targeting and measurement

LG Ads Solutions is the advertising technology subsidiary of LG Electronics, operating as a dedicated CTV (Connected TV) advertising platform that leverages LG's extensive smart TV footprint to deliver targeted advertising solutions. The platform is built on Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) technology, which anonymously identifies what content is being watched on LG smart TVs, enabling advertisers to reach highly specific audiences based on actual viewing behavior rather than modeled data. With tens of millions of LG smart TVs deployed globally, the company offers advertisers a unique first-party data advantage in the rapidly growing CTV advertising space. LG Ads Solutions provides a comprehensive suite of advertising products including audience targeting, cross-screen measurement, and campaign analytics. The platform enables brands and agencies to execute programmatic and direct campaigns across LG's TV inventory while also extending reach to other connected devices. Its measurement capabilities allow advertisers to track outcomes such as brand lift, tune-in, and foot traffic attribution, making it a full-funnel advertising solution. The company rebranded from 'LG Electronics' ad business to LG Ads Solutions in 2021 to establish a more distinct identity in the competitive AdTech marketplace. In the broader AdTech ecosystem, LG Ads Solutions competes directly with other smart TV OS-based advertising platforms such as Samsung Ads, Vizio Ads (now part of Walmart Connect), and Roku's OneView. Its competitive differentiation lies in the scale of LG's global smart TV installed base, the depth of its ACR-derived first-party data, and its ability to offer both supply-side inventory and demand-side targeting tools. As linear TV viewership continues to decline and CTV consumption grows, LG Ads Solutions is positioned as a key player in helping advertisers navigate the evolving television advertising landscape.
