Data-Powered Audience Strategies: The Future of Programmatic Precision
Programmatic advertising is evolving — and at its core is smarter targeting. Today’s success hinges not just on reach, but on understanding audiences deeply and delivering contextually relevant messages in real time.
At Screencore, we’re elevating ad delivery by leveraging data-powered audience strategies that blend predictive signals with immersive formats. Here’s how brands and publishers win in this new precision-driven landscape.
Why Audience Strategy Is the New Frontier in Programmatic
With rising costs and consumer fatigue, generic targeting no longer works. Data-powered audience strategies help ensure your ads reach the people most likely to engage — driving efficiency and impact.
This means tapping into first- and zero-party data, modeling rich user behavior, and layering real-time intelligence for smarter decisions. It’s not just about reaching millions — it’s about connecting with the right ones.
The Role of Predictive Signals and Behavioral Intelligence
Just as MIQ’s SVP Tom Richards emphasized at Cannes 2025, the future lies in combining model-driven insights with real-time signal processing. When platforms like Screencore analyze session behavior, screen usage, and bid outcomes instantly, you can predict intent before conversion — enabling ads to communicate at the right moment.
Our system weights dozens of indicators — like time-of-day, device usage, past engagement — to form a predictive score that informs bidding, creative personalization, and channel selection.
Immersive Formats Meet Data-Driven Audiences
Precision targeting just scratches the surface. Layering immersive formats — such as CTV, native, and in-app video — is what truly boosts attention and engagement.
Screencore’s audience graphs enrich immersive formats with dynamic targeting. For example, if our signals detect long app usage during morning routines, we can serve attention-optimized mobile creatives in-app or on CTV during commute hours. These moments are more than impressions — they’re opportunities.

How Screencore Enables Data-Driven Audience Targeting
Screencore’s platform is built to be smart at scale. It starts with capturing rich signals — from onsite sessions and in-app behavior to past auction activity. These signals are layered with first-party profiles and contextual data to build a more complete picture of each user. Then, real-time predictive modeling scores the likelihood of engagement, informing smarter decisions. Finally, we activate content-responsive creatives across mobile, web, audio, and CTV — ensuring each impression is ready to perform before the ad call is even made. All of this happens before an ad call is made — not after — meaning buy-side systems get traffic ready to perform.
