Engaged Audience Planning to help convergent TV marketers optimize media plans for both reach and outcomes within their existing planning solutions.
Powered by vertical AI, EDO uses syndicated data to analyze ad-driven consumer engagement behaviors — such as brand searches and website visits — across all linear and streaming TV, measuring more than 110 trillion cross-platform impressions since 2015. According to one recent case study, a leading TV advertiser that combined these predictive outcomes with audience optimization generated over a 3x greater lift in ad-driven engagement as compared to a traditional, audience-only media plan. Engaged Audience Planning delivers a streamlined process, offering clearer insights with less manual work.
EDO's offering is compatible with every major audience planning tool, including those like Nielsen, VideoAmp, and Kantar Media, as well as algorithm-driven programmatic optimization solutions such as DoubleVerify Scibids AI ™. The solution also allows more seamless compatibility within clients' existing workflows, including leading media agency planning approaches.
'Marketers consistently tell us they want their Convergent TV investments to deliver on both brand and demand goals — and Engaged Audience Planning is designed to do just that,' said Kevin Krim, CEO, EDO. 'By aligning EDO's outcome measurement with whatever advanced audience marketers choose, we're empowering advertisers to optimize for both reach and results within their existing planning workflows. Now, clients can confidently set audience targets, define their desired spend, and assess trade-offs to build more engaging reach at a fair CPM or max bid — maximizing ROI from their convergent TV strategies.'
'In integrating EDO's new capabilities into our Omni-enabled planning process, we can now incorporate consumer intent, enabling better efficiency and effectiveness for our clients,' said Megan Pagiluca, Chief Product Officer, Omnicom Media Group.
'As advertisers turn to CTV to improve both brand impact and performance, we're seeing rapid growth in programmatic CTV investment as a strategic way to reach and engage audiences,' said Mark Zagorski, CEO, DoubleVerify. 'By integrating with EDO's Engaged Audience Planning, DV Scibids AI empowers brands to intelligently optimize their programmatic CTV campaigns—driving stronger engagement and measurable outcomes that matter.'
'Kantar Media views data interoperability as essential to a healthy advertising ecosystem and our TechEdge Audience Analytics software has always supported that as a core value proposition,' said Chief Strategy Officer; MD, North America, Kantar Media. 'We're excited to see EDO embrace this same approach with outcome measurement that is compatible with established tools and workflows.'
Engaged Audience Planning represents another key milestone in EDO's commitment to industry interoperability. Following the introduction of Engaged Impressions with Nielsen last year, EDO continues to evolve how buyers and sellers optimize for both impact and efficiency in Convergent TV advertising.

Javelin Launches MCP Security to Bring Defense‑in‑Depth to the Model Context Protocol Layer
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Javelin, a Bay Area–based AI security company, today announced MCP Security, a defense-in-depth solution for the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—the connective tissue between AI assistants, tools, and enterprise data. The release combines Javelin Ramparts, an MCP scanner, with Javelin MCP Runtime Guardrails for real-time policy enforcement at the tool and data boundary. MCP Security brings shift‑left scanning and runtime policy to the exact moment agents connect to tools and data, closing the most vulnerable paths - without slowing teams down. Javelin delivers end-to-end Agentic protection enterprises can trust. Share As enterprises accelerate agentic AI, adversaries are shifting to agent hijacking and indirect prompt injection—malicious instructions hidden in business content or third-party data that drive unintended actions. Recent demonstrations show poisoned content can trigger real-world outcomes, underscoring the need for runtime guardrails. 'Waiting for an incident to prove the need for agent security is not a strategy; it's a cost center that erodes trust and brand equity,' said Sharath Rajasekar, CEO and Co-founder of Javelin. 'MCP Security brings shift-left scanning and runtime policy to the exact moment agents connect to tools and data—closing the most vulnerable paths: supply chain, prompt injection, and unsafe tool calls—without slowing teams down.' Why Now Rapid adoption: MCP is emerging as the standard interface connecting assistants to apps and data, with one-click installs fueling growth. Evolving threats: Agent hijacking and semantic prompt injections bypass naïve guardrails as agents act on the world. IBM reports 97% of AI-related security incidents lacked proper access controls, and 63% lacked formal governance. Material business impact: Mature AI controls reduce breach costs and speed recovery while preserving innovation velocity. What's in the Launch Javelin Ramparts: Pre-deployment MCP risk assessment that scans servers and tool manifests for supply-chain and poisoning risks. Produces prioritized, audit-ready findings (mapped to OWASP/MITRE) and integrates with runtime guardrails. MCP Runtime Guardrails: Real-time policy enforcement at the MCP boundary. Allow, block, or require review as agents access tools or data—protecting live data flows without slowing teams. Provides standardized, audit-ready evidence across the AI landscape. Enterprise Value Together, Javelin Ramparts and Runtime MCP Guardrails deliver a defense‑in‑depth layer for agentic systems and AI‑enabled applications—connecting assessment, policy, enforcement, and monitoring end‑to‑end. Reduce risk & cost: Block high-impact abuse paths and strengthen AI governance. Accelerate rollout: Ramparts catches risks pre-deployment; guardrails contain live threats while preserving uptime. Prove compliance: Generate audit-ready evidence mapped to standard frameworks for boards, regulators, and customers. Learn more: Visit or contact sales@ About Javelin Javelin is a venture-backed, research-driven AI security company headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area. We safeguard every layer of modern enterprise AI—across foundation models, applications, and autonomous agents—so enterprises can scale AI safely, responsibly, and in full compliance.
