STN Named As A Finalist For Two Digiday Video Awards

SendtoNews (STN) has been selected as a double finalist in the 2019 Digiday Video Awards for Best Video Ad Tech Innovation and Best Video Distribution Platform award categories. The Digiday Video Awards announced the finalists live from Times Square January 15th, recognizing the companies, campaigns and technology using video to modernize media and marketing.

STN was selected as a finalist for its AI-powered video player technology (STN Smart Match) and innovative video distribution platform. Publishers only need to use one embed code for their entire site as the SendtoNews video player uses AI to read a publisher’s article and instantly match it with the most relevant video in their library.

STN’s video platform has been shown to increase engagement when compared to other sports video, with publishers seeing 3.1x more impressions and 3.9x longer time on page. By providing a three sided platform of innovative technology, premium sports content and unparalleled monetization services, SendtoNews has become a key partner to publishers like Gannett, Tribune, McClatchy, USA Today, and thousands of other newspaper.coms, broadcast.coms, radio.coms and native digital sites.

“We’re thrilled to help publishers continue to thrive on our video platform and share this recognition with our publishing, content, and sales partners,” said Matthew Watson, CEO of SendtoNews. “It is an honor to be recognized among such distinguished company by an industry leader like Digiday. On behalf of our STN team, I offer congratulations to all of the finalists,” added Matthew Watson.

“As both a Digiday finalist and award winner, we know how exciting it is for SendtoNews to be a part of the club,” said Ryan Kenney, vice president, platform services at SpotX. “Through our partnership, we’ve seen firsthand the power of their video platform and know they are more than deserving for this honor.”

Winners will be announced at the annual Digiday Video Awards Gala on March 7th, 2019 in New York, NY. You can watch a clip of the finalist announcement below.
