SSAI delivers a great viewer experience, with smooth, seamless transitions in and out of ad breaks — no delays or re-buffering — with support for multi-screen closed captions and multi-language audio. What’s more, it’s not susceptible to disruptions that can reduce advertiser value, such as playback on devices with ad blockers running. Ads are conditioned to match playback specifications of your content, ensuring ads deliver the same quality as the program content, on every device.

Check out this article for a brief overview of SSAI.

Server-Side Ad Insertion will not only generate ad revenue for your business, it’s priced simply and fairly too. There’s no upfront investment; you pay only for what you use; and there are no costs associated with infrastructure maintenance, or idle server capacity. SSAI supports all of the most popular ad servers, and is now integrated with Brightcove Ad Monetization service, enabling customers to easily backfill remnant inventory, or rapidly launch new ad supported services with yield-optimized advertising that is targeted to maximize the value of your content.

"SWM decided to pivot its business strategy and become a total video enterprise, putting consumers in control of the viewing experience. In order to do that successfully, the company identified two major goals: (1) incrementally monetize all of its live stream content, and (2) measure each asset independently."
