VEIL

VEIL Global Technologies provides media buying, planning, verification, and reconciliation solutions designed to bring greater transparency and accountability to the media supply chain. The company applies watermarking technology to traditional broadcast advertising, helping customers identify their ads as they air. VEIL monitors thousands of television stations across North America around the clock for content and advertisements containing its watermark, supporting real-time detection and alerts.

Its services include independent ad verification, media management, accounting support, and tools intended to improve optimization and decision-making. VEIL promotes watermarking as an interoperable alternative to fingerprinting approaches, aiming to connect advertising and content workflows through shared technology. Its portfolio includes audio and video watermark patents acquired from Koplar Interactive Systems International in 2021.

The company’s published figures cite more than 1,500 brands, 61,000 unique commercials, and 80 million TV detections, with monitoring across national networks, local stations, cable networks, and digital networks. VEIL has announced that it joined Kinetiq, combining capabilities in watermarking and media intelligence while continuing its service offering.
