Conde Nast Announces Cookie-Less Targeting Solution, New Video and Audio Products At Health Upfront

Conde Nast Health, the company's commercial division dedicated to the health advertising category, held its second annual upfront today, announcing new opportunities for pharmaceutical marketers, in addition to new products and franchises across company brands.

Conde Nast Health reaches more than 73 million monthly ad-supported viewers.

The company introduced a new CitizenNet cookie-less solution called Obsidian that uses AI-powered machine learning to reach high-intent audiences through a combination of content intelligence, audience models and audience interactions. Health advertisers benefit from Obsidian’s use of 1P technology that scores content according to contextual relevancy and optimizes based on frequency, placement and sentiment.

The solution analyzes Spire health models to predict cookie-less consumer intent and interests. Obsidian also allows for the exclusion of specific keywords or pages from targeting and performance layering.
