Company history

=2007–2009=

TubeMogul was founded by Brett Wilson and John Hughes while enrolled as MBA students at the University of California Berkeley's Haas School of Business.{{cite web|title=TubeMogul – Guiding Principles|url=https://www.tubemogul.com/guiding-principles/|website=TubeMogul|access-date=22 August 2016}} In 2007, the TubeMogul team led by Wilson and Hughes won the Haas Business Plan Competition, which provided seed money enabling the development and launch of the product. In its original conception, TubeMogul was a cross-platform online video analytics tool in 2007.{{cite web|url=http://mashable.com/2007/07/23/tubemogul/|title=TubeMogul Launches Cross-Network Video Tracking Tool|publisher=Mashable|author=Kristen Nicole|date=23 July 2007}} Video producers uploaded content through TubeMogul, which would then distribute and track performance across video sharing sites.{{cite web|url=http://vator.tv/news/2009-06-07-tubemogul-20-democratizes-video-analytics|title=TubeMogul 2.0 democratizes video analytics – Web video distribution and analytics company sets new standard for online viewing metrics|publisher=Vator News|author=Larry Kless|date=7 June 2009}}

=2010–2013=

In 2010, TubeMogul launched Playtime, an online video ad network, to help advertisers deliver ads to their target audience. Playtime differentiated itself from other online ad networks with its self-service features as well as the level of transparency it provided.{{cite web|url=http://gigaom.com/2010/03/15/tubemoguls-ad-revenues-already-surpass-analytics-sales/|title=TubeMogul's Ad Revenues Already Surpass Analytics Sales|publisher=GIGAOM|author=Ryan Lawler|date=15 March 2010}} In 2011, TubeMogul combined the Playtime ad network with the video syndication platform to become a demand-side platform (DSP) for brand advertisers.{{cite web|url=https://techcrunch.com/2011/04/12/tubemogul-video-advertising/|title=TubeMogul Relaunches As A Video Advertising Platform|publisher=Tech Crunch|author=Erick Schonfeld|date=12 April 2011}} TubeMogul's DSP aggregates multiple inventory sources, including advertising exchanges, supply-side platforms, advertising networks as well as direct relationships with premium publishers, local and national broadcasters, cable networks and multichannel video programming distributors.

In 2012, TubeMogul introduced its BrandSafe technology, which ensured that advertisements did not appear alongside objectionable content or run in ineffectively-small video players.{{cite web|url=https://techcrunch.com/2012/05/30/tubemogul-pitches-brand-safety-with-pagesafe-a-tool-to-see-where-ads-really-appear/|title=TubeMogul Pitches Brand Safety With PageSafe, A Tool To See Where Ads Really Appear|publisher=Tech Crunch|author= Ryan Lawler|date=30 May 2012}} In 2013, TubeMogul launched BrandPoint, which allows marketers to execute digital video buys on a gross rating point (GRP) basis, traditionally used by TV advertisers to measure a campaign's effectiveness.{{cite web|url=http://www.adweek.com/videowatch/tubemogul-down-grps-150632|title=TubeMogul Is Down With GRPs Video ad buying firm rolls out planning tool BrandPoint|publisher=ADWEEK|author= Mike Shields|date=25 June 2013}} In March 2016, TubeMogul partnered with Facebook to reach TV audiences via Nielsen data.{{Cite news|url=https://www.marketingdive.com/news/tubemogul-to-reach-tv-audiences-on-facebook-via-nielsen-data/416674/|title=TubeMogul to reach TV audiences on Facebook via Nielsen data|work=Marketing Dive|access-date=2018-06-05|language=en-US}}{{Cite news|url=https://www.adweek.com/tv-video/tubemogul-partners-facebook-help-brands-extend-tv-audience-reach-digital-170507/|title=TubeMogul Partners With Facebook to Help Brands Extend TV Audience Reach to Digital|access-date=2018-06-05|language=en-US}}

TubeMogul became a publicly traded company on July 18, 2014, and is listed with the NASDAQ Global Select Market using the ticker symbol "TUBE" (See {{section link||IPO}}).

In December 2014, TubeMogul released PTV, a Programmatic TV software solution that allows advertisers to plan and execute data-driven local, national, addressable and VOD television media buys.{{cite news|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andy-plesser/video-tubemoguls-ptv-brin_b_6285278.html|title=TubeMogul's PTV Brings Programmatic to TV|work=Huffington Post|author= Andy Plesser|date=7 December 2014}}

Also in 2015, TubeMogul participated in a third-party assessment of Video Demand Side Platforms conducted by Forrester Research.

In 2016, TubeMogul announced partnerships and integrations with the social media platforms Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and SnapChat.

Financing

TubeMogul received its initial funding after winning the Lester Center's Business Plan Competition while co-founders John Hughes and Brett Wilson were studying at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business in 2007.{{cite web|url=http://newsroom.haas.berkeley.edu/article/ipo-bound-tubemogul-traces-origins-berkeley-haas|title=IPO-bound TubeMogul Traces Origins to Berkeley-Haas |publisher=Haas School of Business|author= Haas School of Business|date=28 March 2014}} The company received seed funding from NetService Ventures later that same year.{{cite web|url=http://gigaom.com/2007/10/15/419-online-video-analytics-firm-tubemogul-sets-seed-funding/|title=Online Video Analytics Firm TubeMogul Sets Seed Funding|publisher=GIGAON|author=Rafat Ali|date=15 October 2007}}{{cite web|url=http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/10/prweb560976.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20140726221837/http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/10/prweb560976.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 26, 2014|title=TubeMogul Secures Seed Investment from NetService Ventures|publisher=PRWeb|author=TubeMogul Inc.|date=15 October 2007}}

In February 2008, TubeMogul raised $3 million in Series A funding led by Trinity Ventures.{{cite web|url=http://gigaom.com/2009/03/31/tubemogul-gets-3m-for-video-distribution/|title=TubeMogul Gets $3M for Video Distribution|publisher=GIGAOM|author= Liz Gannes|date=31 March 2009}} In October 2008, they acquired Illuminex, a video analytics company founded by Jason Lopatecki and Adam Rose, for an undisclosed amount.{{cite web|url=http://gigaom.com/2008/10/27/tubemogul-acquires-illuminex/|title=TubeMogul Acquires Illumenix|publisher=GIGAOM|author= Chris Albrecht|date=27 October 2008}}{{cite web|url=http://www.businessinsider.com/2008/10/tubemogul-buys-flash-analytics-firm-illuminex|title=TubeMogul Buys Flash Analytics Firm Illuminex|website=Business Insider|author=Vasanth Sridharan|date=28 October 2008}}

=Adobe acquisition=

In November 2016, Adobe Systems Incorporated announced an agreement to acquire TubeMogul for $14 per share, or approximately $540 million, in cash. The deal is expected to close in Adobe's first quarter of 2017.{{cite web|title=Adobe acquires video ad company TubeMogul for $540M|url=https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/10/adobe-acquires-tubemogul/|website=TechCrunch |author=Anthony Ha |date=10 November 2016}}

Industry initiatives

=Non-Human Traffic Credit Program=

In February 2016, TubeMogul announced the development of a new anti-ad fraud initiative called the Non-Human Traffic Credit Program. Effective April 2016, the company will automatically refund clients whose ads were served to non-human traffic, also known as bots. TubeMogul partnered with ad fraud detection company White Ops, which will apply its verification technology across every video ad bought through TubeMogul's Open RTB platform. The service is available to all clients who have a master service agreement with TubeMogul.{{cite web|url=http://www.businessinsider.com/tubemogul-launches-non-human-traffic-credit-program-2016-2|title=Ad tech company TubeMogul will refund advertisers every time it accidentally serves an ad to a bot|website=Business Insider|author=Lara O'Reilly|date=29 Feb 2016}}{{cite web|url=https://www.marketingmag.com.au/news-c/tubemogul-will-refund-clients-traffic-identified-fraudulant/|title=TubeMogul will refund clients for traffic identified as fraudulent|publisher=Marketing Mag|author=Tate Papworth|date=1 March 2016}}

=Independence Matters=

In March 2016, TubeMogul launched an advertising campaign alleging Google's dual position as both media owner as well as buying platform creates inherent conflicts of interests for marketers.

{{cite web|url=http://www.businessinsider.com/tubemogul-launches-campaign-attacking-google-2016-3|title=Ad tech company TubeMogul is launching an ad campaign that alleges Google has 'conflicts of interest' and 'walled gardens'|website=Business Insider|author=Lara O'Reilly|date=7 March 2016}}{{cite web|url=https://www.tubemogul.com/independence/|title=A Manifesto For Independence|publisher=TubeMogul|author=TubeMogul|date=7 March 2016}}

TubeMogul claims that "Google has made a conscious decision to wall itself off from the rest of the industry." The campaign hints at Google's move to restrict third-party companies from buying YouTube ads via the DoubleClick Ad Exchange.{{cite web|url=http://www.thedrum.com/news/2016/03/07/google-attacked-creating-walled-gardens-tubemogul-campaign|title=Google attacked for creating 'walled gardens' in TubeMogul campaign|publisher=The Drum|author=Rebecca Stewart|date=7 March 2016}}

=Open Video Viewability (OpenVV)=

In May 2013, TubeMogul and several other advertising technology vendors formed the Open Video View (OpenVV) consortium to help facilitate the adoption of a viewability standard for online video advertising.{{cite web|url=http://www.adexchanger.com/analytics/video-ad-rivals-collaborate-on-open-source-viewability/|title=Video Ad Rivals Collaborate On Open-Source Viewability|publisher=Ad Exchanger|author=David Kaplan|date=23 May 2013}}

OpenVV is an open-source code that provides marketers verification that their ad was actually seen by human eyes and reasons for non-viewability.{{cite web|url=http://www.videoadnews.com/2014/02/27/vivaki-becomes-first-agency-member-sign-openvv-viewability-gets/|title=VivaKi Becomes First Agency Member to Sign Up to OpenVV Viewability|publisher=Video Ad News|author= Vincent Flood|date=27 February 2014}} TubeMogul founded the initiative along with video technology vendors BrightRoll, Innovid, SpotXChange, and LiveRail; current members include Nielsen, comScore, TrustE, and VivaKi.

In June 2015, the IAB Tech Lab took over management of the OpenVV initiative as they continued to ramp up efforts in creating a common, scalable and interoperable technical solution to effectively measure viewability for video. The transfer of management for OpenVV marked the first industry initiative to be on-boarded into the IAB Tech Lab, a nonprofit research and development organization charged with producing and helping companies implement global industry technical standards and solutions.{{cite web|title=IAB Tech Lab Takes Over Management of 'Open Video Viewability' Initiative, Originally Founded by TubeMogul, Brightroll, Innovid, Liverail & SpotXChange|publisher=iab.|author=Laura Goldberg|date=8 June 2015}}

=Fraud/Fake Pre-Roll=

In 2012, TubeMogul launched fakepreroll.com to raise awareness about video ads that were shown in inventory normally reserved for display advertisements, oftentimes without the marketer's knowledge.{{cite web|url=http://fakepreroll.com/|title=Fake Pre Roll|publisher=www.FakePreRoll.com|date=7 May 2012}}

The site was taken down after several companies sent TubeMogul cease-and-desist orders.

=Botnet detection=

In 2014, TubeMogul reported the existence of three botnets, responsible for defrauding advertisers for a potential $10 million each month.{{cite web|url=http://www.adweek.com/news/technology/fraud-alert-millions-video-views-faked-sophisticated-new-bot-scam-156883|title=Fraud Alert: Millions of Video Views Faked in Sophisticated New Bot Scam – TubeMogul outs dozens of suspect sites|publisher=ADWeek|author= Garett Sloane|date=8 April 2014}}{{cite news|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andy-plesser/video-tubemoguls-brett-wi_b_5358880.html|title=TubeMogul's Brett Wilson is Battling Bots, Non-Human Video Views and Low Ad Rates|work=Huffington Post|author= Andy Plesser|date=20 May 2014}}
