Aimy, a conversational AI cross-channel media buying platform brings premium video inventory to smalland mid-sized businesses with AI-powered simplicity.
New York, NY – November 3, 2025 – Brand Networks, an Augeo company and leader in AI-powered
advertising solutions, today announced a new capability within its Aimy platform that democratizes TV
advertising for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs). Powered by Comcast’s Universal Ads API, Aimy
enables advertisers to plan, launch, and measure premium connected TV (CTV) campaigns directly within
the Aimy platform — making it possible for SMBs to access premium video available through Universal
Ads at an unprecedented scale and price point.
Aimy is one of the first AI ad buying assistants for TV ads, giving SMBs access to the same high-value TV
environments once reserved for the world’s biggest brands. Through Universal Ads, Aimy advertisers can
reach up to 90% of U.S. households, combining premium brand-safe video inventory with AI-driven
automation to deliver performance and efficiency never before available to local businesses.
“For too long, TV has been out of reach for small businesses without big budgets, creative teams, or
media buyers,” said Mike Garsin, CEO of Brand Networks. “With Aimy and Universal Ads, we’re removing
those barriers. Now any business — from a neighborhood coffee shop to a regional franchise — can
launch premium TV campaigns with the same ease as a social ad.”
Aimy’s TV advertising capabilities include:
● AI-Powered Campaign Setup: Aimy automatically recommends targeting, creative, pacing, and
optimization based on a brand’s goals, freeing small teams from manual setup.
● Integrated Performance Reporting: View Universal Ads campaign results alongside other
digital and social metrics for a single, clear view of ROI.
● Premium Video: Access to extensive premium video supply via Universal Ads, including more
than 15 major publishers, including: A+E, AMC Networks, DIRECTV, Estrella MediaCo, Fox Corporation,
Fuse Media, LG Ad Solutions, NBCUniversal, Paramount, Roku, Scripps, Spectrum
Reach, TelevisaUnivision, Vizio, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Xumo.
“Advertisers of every size want TV-level reach with performance-grade simplicity,” said James Borow, VP
of Product & Engineering, Universal Ads. “The Universal Ads API is giving developers the power to build
products like Aimy, and we are so excited to see how it can help small businesses that so often power
local communities.”
