“We are excited to offer Reveal Connect to the wider world,” said Ellen Dudar, Chief Product Officer of FourthWall Media. “We have used Reveal Connect with many MVPDs, analytics partners, third-party data providers, and various unique custom datasets to power dynamic matching. As more and more companies drive toward outcome-based analytics, we recognize their need to create detailed custom audiences while maintaining control of the process and control of their own customer data. Reveal Connect™ is uniquely positioned to address these needs.”

Reveal Connect works by providing networks, brands and agencies the capabilities to create their own matches in house so that PII associated with households never leaves its source. An anonymized, common key is generated to connect attributes, characteristics, and behaviors across datasets. With Reveal Connect, there is no limit to the number of matches allowing users to dynamically juxtapose many custom audiences as they explore and investigate dataset possibilities.

“We consistently hear three concerns about traditional matching methods when we talk with industry partners,” said Tim Peters, CEO of FourthWall Media. “The first is a lack of control over the process and PII. The second is the length and variability of timing when conducting matches, and the third is the cost of doing matches. We address all of these issues with Reveal Connect™ by putting the product into our partners’ hands and giving them control.”

When partners use Reveal Connect to create custom audiences from their first-party data, the turnaround is dramatically faster than existing matching timeframes. Reveal Connect™ empowers users in building meaningful analytics products while maintaining conscientious stewardship of PII and other customer information.

Reveal Connect is available today as part of FourthWall Media’s Reveal analytics platform, and also as an individual license. Contact FourthWall Media for more information and to learn how Reveal Connect can solve your secure household matching needs.
