The integration of ironSource and Unity is “progressing as planned.” As CEO John Riccitiello said during an earnings call, prior to the merger, both companies were major players on the data side. “The gap on Unity’s data was no visibility on the mediation component, which is a very important part, where advantage lived if we had a very strong ROAS [return on ad spend] we’ll set. And so we took two large data sets and pulled them together under one roof, which allows us to target users better.”
Unity continues to implement different AI solutions, including the recently launched Unity Sentis and Unity Muse. According to CFO Luis Felipe Visoso, the company is now also using “AI and machine learning to strengthen our algorithms to deliver better ROI [return on investment] for our customers.”
