The latest product from SilverPush is named mirrors. Launched in 2018, mirrors utilises artificial intelligence and computer vision to detect the context in video content to serve related In-Video Ads, which tackles the misplaced advertisement problem while improving the user experience. That way, advertisers can communicate with their visitors better.
