Yes — if you’re comparing inventory options across connected TV (CTV) and broader cross-screen video, it helps to look at providers in a few buckets: premium publishers/marketplaces, programmatic supply platforms, and data/measurement partners.

Good CTV providers to evaluate

1) Premium CTV / OTT publishers

Best when you want high-quality, brand-safe inventory and direct access to major streaming audiences.

  • Roku Ads Manager / Roku OneView
  • Amazon Ads (Prime Video, Fire TV)
  • Disney+ / Hulu via Disney advertising
  • Netflix Ads
  • NBCUniversal One Platform
  • Paramount Advertising
  • Warner Bros. Discovery / Max inventory
  • Fox / Tubi
  • Disney+ / Hulu
  • Samsung Ads
  • LG Ad Solutions

2) Programmatic CTV supply sources

Best when you want to compare reach, scale, and pricing across many apps and publishers.

  • The Trade Desk
  • Google DV360
  • Yahoo DSP
  • Magnite
  • PubMatic
  • OpenX
  • Xandr / Microsoft Advertising
  • FreeWheel
  • SpotX (now part of Magnite)

These are especially useful for cross-screen campaigns because they can help you compare CTV, desktop, mobile, and sometimes audio in one buying environment.

3) AVOD / FAST platforms

Good for incremental reach and often more flexible pricing.

  • Tubi
  • Pluto TV
  • Plex
  • The Roku Channel
  • Freevee (where available)
  • Xumo
  • Sling Freestream
  • Philo (ad-supported offerings)

4) Measurement and identity partners

If your goal is to compare inventory quality and deduplicated reach across screens, these are important too:

  • Nielsen
  • Comscore
  • iSpot
  • VideoAmp
  • Experian
  • LiveRamp
  • TransUnion

What to compare across providers

When evaluating inventory for cross-screen campaigns, compare:

  • Reach and unique audience
  • Device mix (CTV, mobile, desktop, tablet)
  • Content type (premium, AVOD, FAST, live sports, entertainment)
  • Ad format availability (15s, 30s, pause ads, interactive)
  • Frequency controls
  • Targeting options (contextual, audience, geo, household)
  • Measurement compatibility
  • Brand safety / fraud controls
  • Competitive separation
  • Pricing model (CPM, fixed, auction)

A practical shortlist

If you want a manageable set to start with, I’d compare:

  • Roku
  • Amazon Ads
  • The Trade Desk
  • Magnite
  • Google DV360
  • Tubi
  • Pluto TV
  • Disney/Hulu
  • Nielsen or VideoAmp for measurement

If you want, I can also put this into a comparison matrix by:

  1. premium vs. programmatic inventory,
  2. cross-screen measurement capabilities, or
  3. best providers by campaign goal (reach, frequency, performance, or brand safety).
