AdSlate allows marketers to be hands on in their video ad creation from conception to distribution. The platform allows marketers to create video ads from scratch, target the ads and then serve the ads on established online properties. The still images and video clips are provided to marketers through the Jivox Library; from there ads can be customized for each business and campaign. Targeting can be based on audience type and region and marketers can even add coupons to the ads for distribution.
