03TV & BROADCAST

Measure participating-device exposure beyond the delivery log.

Phantone records qualifying acoustic detections from participating apps when signaled television or streaming media plays nearby—providing a direct measurement layer alongside panels, server logs, and existing attribution methods.

Here's what a broadcast campaign looks like with Phantone.

Runbook · 5 steps
  1. T+00:00 · STEP 1 / 5

    The advertiser or network applies the signal to the TV spot or ad break before it goes to air. The audio is unchanged. The signal is in.

  2. T+00:12 · STEP 2 / 5

    The spot airs nationally — on cable, satellite, OTA, CTV, or streaming. Participating apps in a supported listening state can detect the signal through the device microphone.

  3. T+00:30 · STEP 3 / 5

    The SDK decodes the signal on device. The impression is logged — campaign ID, creative ID, timestamp, and a privacy-preserving device or installation identifier — and delivered to the advertiser's endpoint.

  4. T+01:30 · STEP 4 / 5

    The advertiser's dashboard shows a feed of qualifying detection events — each one timestamped, campaign-attributed, and backed by a W3C Verifiable Credential that sits alongside your existing measurement.

  5. T+10:00 · STEP 5 / 5

    A second-screen experience fires on participating devices: a product offer, a 'learn more' unlock, or loyalty credit — timed to the moment the spot ends.

The problems this vertical wants solved.

  • 01

    A direct count of participating devices that detected a specific signaled spot.

  • 02

    Signed, verifiable impression records their agency can audit independently, without relying on our database.

  • 03

    A second-screen unlock timed to the end of the spot, without any user interaction.

Framed in Phantone's own voice from partner conversations — not attributed quotes.

Add direct acoustic evidence to broadcast attribution.

We work with networks, advertisers, and agencies to deploy on existing broadcast infrastructure — as a measurement layer alongside the panels, server logs, and attribution models you already use.
