What anoki, inc. does

Anoki, Inc. is a privately held company that builds AI software for Connected TV (CTV) content discovery and contextual advertising, with its core platform ContextIQ positioned as CTV's first end-to-end multimodal AI system for scene-level contextual video intelligence. The platform analyzes video, audio, and text at the scene level to enable brand-suitable ad placements, real-time brand safety (including for live news), and GenAI-powered creative generation via its CreativeAI module, supported by an AI Copilot for natural-language querying. Supporting products include LiveTVx, an AI-enhanced FAST service on Google TV, Anoki Labs for semantic search of media archives, and integrations covering live-news brand suitability and OEM partnerships such as the Ventura TV OS.

Anoki serves three primary customer segments: CTV advertisers and brands seeking scene-level contextual targeting, FAST/streaming platforms looking to monetize inventory, and regulated verticals such as healthcare and pharma. Its go-to-market is enterprise-focused, combining direct sales engagement with channel leverage through integrations and partnerships with major ad-tech and media counterparties — Magnite (the largest independent CTV SSP), Amagi (FAST infrastructure), Index Marketplaces, Spectrum Reach, Allen Media Group, and Future Today — as well as agency partnerships such as CMI Media Group.

The business model is SaaS-style platform licensing with subscription/recurring revenue mechanics, supplemented by quote-based, non-publicly-disclosed enterprise pricing. No funding rounds, headcount, or revenue figures are disclosed in the source data, though the company has signaled continued commercial momentum through 2024–2025 partnership cadence and 2026 category-level award recognition.
