- Amazon’s chief of video advertisements presented his plan to develop television advertising, including a new purchase and planning tool.
- He said that Amazon favors the advertising performance of “public boasting rights”.
- Amazon faces stronger competition for the streaming of advertisements while rivals develop live sports and viewers.
Amazon paved the way to bring live sports to streaming and disrupted the market last year when it deployed default advertisements by default its preview of the first video. But it faces stronger competition in 2025 from Netflix, YouTube belonging to Google, and more.
An Amazon advantage is always its massive scale and its data degree.
Krishan Bhatia, the Nbcuniversal veterinarian who was exploited to direct the sales of announcements for the video premium last year, said that Reach was “fundamental” – especially when using “data and targeting to optimize against audience segments”.
Amazon praises a range of 115 million monthly viewers supported by advertising on Prime Video, which reach 175 million when the rest of its television offer is included.
Another fundamental part of Bhatia’s height is to facilitate the purchase of advertising in this audience. To help increase its share of advertisers’ budgets, Amazon deploys a new tool called Complete TV. This tool allows advertisers to view data from their advertising television streaming on Amazon and its competitors in one place. Complete television can then give them recommendations generated by AI-Comment spend more of their budgets (with Amazon, probably).
Bhatia spoke in front of the planned land scheduled with advertising portfolio companies the week of March 3.
The Amazon terrain may not satisfy certain television advertisers, who told Bi that they did not want to limit themselves to using Amazon’s purchase of advertisements, which they think prevents them from measuring in a holistic way their expenses between media companies. They asked for anonymity when they discuss commercial affairs; Their identities are known to bi.
Advertisers always wonder who looks
Bhatia spoke of the live sports prowess of Amazon, reinforced by the addition of the NBA this year, as well as its customer data and its ability to link the announcements to the results.
But beyond sports, Prime Video has more to prove to advertisers who want to be associated with the shows that are passionate. Amazon’s share of the vision of television, at 3.7% in January, follows YouTube, Netflix and Disney. He has largely popular programs but did not have a mega hit with the cultural impact of “Squid Game” or “Stranger Things” of Netflix.
Bhatia underlined the television series of action “Reacher” and the science fiction drama “Fallout” as examples of the popular entertainment of Amazon.
“I think everyone wants to have success,” he said. “There is no doubt about it. I think we have had our share of success and our studio teams and our content programming teams continue to focus on the search for super IP which is evolving in the United States and the scale of the whole world.”
Bhatia said that Amazon strives to develop more audience information for advertisers, but that it would not correspond to Netflix in the advertisement of complete audience for broadcasts and films.
“When we serve the customer, we are talking about data that matters,” he said. “And they understand performance, they understand the scope, they understand the ideas of the public that we provide them. It is more important than the rights of the public that can support them.”
However, some advertisers say to Bi that they always want more streamers data in general – especially around what their ads appear – similar to what they get on linear television.
Amazon also boasts as an argument of sale which it relies less on switch formats using shopping carousels and AI tools to suspect its targeting capacities of ads.
“We were hired from the start to maintain the interrupting advertising burden at least,” said Bhatia. “This means that you are going to have a lower interruptive advertising charge on average. It is an act of balancing, but our strategy is to have a diverse set of advertising experiences which are not only based on increasing advertisements of 15 and 30 seconds.”

Amazon faces a more difficult competition in 2025
Amazon achieved $ 3.8 billion in streaming video income last year, $ 1.5 billion from Netflix, Emarketer said.
But it faces increased competition.
Netflix makes advertisements a larger part of its growth plan and has shown that it can convene a general public live with two NFL games on Christmas Day and the Jake Paul boxing match against Mike Tyson at the end of last year. YouTube has user data that competes with Amazon and was the main destination for visualization of television for two years running. Disney now has more television sharing than Amazon on Disney +, ESPN + and Hulu combined.
Advertising initiates say that thanks in part to Amazon to flood the market and lower rivals, buyers have more places to go and expect even more good deals – which they expect to use to extract other price reductions.
