Platform Architecture

A Full Stack Built
for the Venue Floor.

Vantiq Edge AdServer

Edge-deployed ad server running at each operator property on dedicated hardware. Serves ads in real time without cloud round-trips. TLS-secured at operator-specific subdomains.

ARES Rules Engine

Automated Rules Enforcement System. Enforces IAB content categories, state-level gaming authority requirements, brand safety rules, and advertiser approval workflows — per venue, per market.

OptiSigns Multi-Tenant CMS

OptiSigns Pro+ manages content across every screen, every distributor, and every venue from a single dashboard. Distributor admins manage their own publisher folders with view-only access to master content.

DSP Integrations

Full OpenRTB integration with Place Exchange, Vistar Media, and Advangelists. Every bid request carries venue metadata: GPS coordinates, venue type, DMA, and audience signals.

TICK Stack Fleet Monitoring

Telegraf, InfluxDB, Chronograf, and Kapacitor provide real-time telemetry across every device in the network — uptime, playback confirmation, impression delivery, and alert thresholds.

Casino Systems Interface (CSI)

A separate gaming-authority-certified application running on the AdServer host, connecting CPMN® to regulated casino management systems for loyalty data integration and compliance reporting.

TV InterceptAd™

Proprietary CTV product that detects commercial breaks on connected TVs with 85%+ accuracy and intercepts with CPMN® ads. Extends the platform to 260 million LG Smart TVs via Sports Playbook.

MinIO Media Server

Self-hosted S3-compatible object storage for all ad creative assets. Deployed at operator properties for low-latency media delivery. Replaced a $200K/year ANT Media Server licensing cost.

Publisher Onboarding Portal

Web-based portal at ares.contextnetworks.net for venue onboarding, device registration, and publisher approval workflows. Uses AAA-X naming convention for venue UIDs.

DSP Integrations

Buy CPMN® Inventory
Where You Already Buy.

Place Exchange

Programmatic DOOH DSP

Leading programmatic DOOH platform. CPMN® venue inventory is accessible to all Place Exchange buyers targeting gaming and regulated venue environments.

Vistar Media

Programmatic DOOH DSP

Full OpenRTB integration. Vistar buyers can filter CPMN® inventory by venue type, DMA, and state. One of the largest DOOH DSPs by active advertiser count.

Advangelists

Programmatic DSP + Attribution

DSP integration plus AdTribute mobile attribution — capturing device IDs near CPMN® screens for mobile retargeting of exposed audiences. Closes the measurement loop.
