Integral Ad Science (IAS) is a global technology and data analytics company that helps advertisers and publishers measure and optimize the efficacy, safety, and quality of digital advertising campaigns. The company’s core business centers on ad verification, providing clients with metrics on ad viewability, brand safety, fraud detection, and contextual relevance to ensure that online ads reach real audiences in brand-approved environments. By leveraging machine learning and proprietary data signals, IAS delivers insights that enable marketers to assess campaign performance across desktop, mobile, video, connected TV, and social media channels.
IAS offers a suite of products and solutions designed to address the full spectrum of digital media quality challenges. These include viewability measurement tools that track whether ads are actually seen by users, fraud protection services that identify invalid traffic and block non-human impressions, and brand safety solutions that screen content for risks such as hate speech, adult themes, or other unsuitable material. The company has also expanded into contextual targeting, combining artificial intelligence with semantic analysis to help advertisers place messages in contextually relevant environments without relying on cookies or personal identifiers.
