NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire -06/25/12)- Casale Media, (www.CasaleMedia.com), an online media technology company, today announced the launch of Index Platform (www.indexssp.com), a sell-side platform that powers programmatic selling and private marketplaces for publishers. Gatehouse Media's private marketplace, adhance media, and Casale Media's own ad exchange, CasaleX, have been among the first adopters of the platform. As part of the announcement, Casale Media has launched Index Pulse, a real-time map of aggregate Real-Time Bidding (RTB) activity flowing through the platform.

Index Platform delivers advanced control and channel protection for publishers, with full support for dealID, a new technology standard that enables advanced selling within private exchange environments. Here are some of the details:

"We're greatly benefiting from Index Platform. The technology has allowed us to connect directly with programmatic buyers in a controlled environment," said Michael Moreau, VP of Digital at Gatehouse Media. "We are thrilled with the results and Casale Media has been an excellent partner."

"As the RTB environment continues to mature, we are seeing increased demand from our clients for more direct access to premium inventory via programmatic channels," said Adrian Tompsett, VP of Business Development at DataXu. "Casale Media has built an advanced supply-side platform empowering publishers with the granular controls and transparency required in order to more effectively collaborate with the buy-side to help marketers better achieve their goals."

"Publishers asked us to deliver a sell-side solution for RTB to seamlessly manage the somewhat disorganized nature of demand that flows through RTB pipes. Our custom taxonomy was designed with direct feedback from publishers and our platform is driven entirely by humans, providing a unique ability to guarantee the management of demand without error for our publisher customers," said Andrew Casale, VP of strategy, Casale Media. "We're increasingly seeing publishers' needs go beyond what rigid platforms in the market can support. Much of our forward development is centered around flexible, customized technology solutions that fit directly into a publisher's internal workflow and architecture."
