The difference

Built by publishers. Proven on our own brands.

The same platform powering Sports Illustrated, FanSided, and The Players' Tribune is available to you. That means exclusive league content your competitors can't access, direct demand your SSP doesn't carry, and technology stress-tested at scale before it ever reached a partner.

What's included

One platform. Content, technology and revenue.

  • Content

    The only video platform with exclusive web distribution rights to official highlights from every major US sports league — NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NHL, PGA and F1. Combined with premium content from 250+ global partners, SmartMatch automatically surfaces the most contextually relevant video for every article on your site.

  • Revenue

    Exclusive direct demand from Tier 1 brands and agencies that never hits the open exchange — flowing directly to every publisher on the platform. Floor price optimization and supply path optimization running continuously. No hidden margins — full gross CPM visibility at the partner level.

What publishers say

Trusted by publishers who can't afford to get it wrong.

  • A lot of platforms don't have a good reputation… STN has a very good reputation in our building, and that just makes it really easy to want to do more business with them.

  • We tested Brightcove, Ex.Co, JW Player and others. We really loved the opportunity for content, and the revenue opportunity made the most sense.
