Teads, the omnichannel outcomes platform, today announced the launch of the industry's first unified publisher feed operating system, Teads EngageOS. Designed to maximize publisher revenue without compromising long-term audience loyalty, EngageOS treats every user session as a whole, combining editorial recommendations and ads into one auction, thereby optimizing for total session yield. The launch is anchored by a strategic partnership with Magnite (NASDAQ: MGNI), which will seamlessly integrate third-party publisher programmatic demand with Magnite Demand Server and democratize access to native placements.

A New Chapter: From the Company That Created Content Recommendations
The modern publishing ecosystem is facing a critical crossroads. With referral traffic from search declining, monetization strategies are trapped in a trade-off between short-term revenue spikes and long-term audience loyalty. EngageOS solves this tension by delivering the first operating system designed for sustainable publisher monetization and user engagement.
Born from Teads' twenty-year heritage as the pioneer of the content recommendation space, this platform transforms how publishers value their digital real estate. Instead of treating editorial links and ad units as separate entities and beholden to traditional RPMs, EngageOS introduces a proprietary engine that dynamically prioritizes total revenue based on real-time predictive data. The platform eliminates legacy technical friction, empowering publishers to seamlessly input their own third-party and direct sold demand directly into Teads' high-impact environments.
"EngageOS is the infrastructure publishers need to solve the historical tension between immediate revenue and long-term sustainability of their relationships with consumers. Our partners told us clearly that they needed more than just better monetization—they needed flexibility," said Amnon Lahav, Chief Product Officer, Supply, Direct Response and Mid Market at Teads. "We are answering that call with a new way of working that sets publishers up for the next era of advertising, giving them the exact tools required to protect their bottom line and capture significantly higher user engagement and revenue per session (RPS)."
"We're pleased to be a launch partner for EngageOS," said Brian Levine, SVP of Revenue Operations at Penske Media Corporation. "What stood out to us was Teads' focus on building a solution informed by publisher feedback. EngageOS addresses the real trade-offs publishers navigate every day, and we look forward to working with the Teads team as the platform continues to evolve."
"What makes EngageOS so valuable is how it unifies our entire feed ecosystem," said Eric Aledort, SVP, Partnerships and Business Development at The Arena Group. "Instead of managing editorial content and ad demand in silos, we can now look at user sessions holistically to capture maximum yield without adding technical friction to our operations."
Historically, publishers monetizing native placements through recommendation environments had limited control over programmatic demand, often relying on closed ecosystems. Through the partnership with Magnite, publishers can bring their own SSP demand directly into Teads' premium native placements for the first time through EngageOS. Publishers can activate demand through their preferred Prebid Server-compatible SSPs, and benefit from a more direct path between buyers and inventory. The result is greater marketplace competition, fewer supply-chain hops, and increased yield for publishers.
"We are proud to deepen our trusted partnership with Teads to build a more open, efficient, and highly profitable publisher ecosystem," said Ashley Wheeler, SVP of DV+ Platform at Magnite. "By integrating Magnite's Demand Server directly into EngageOS, we are unlocking historically siloed native environments and delivering unparalleled scale to the open internet. This collaboration democratizes buyer access, reduces hops in the supply chain and focuses on increasing total session yield for premier publishers globally."
Holistic Decisioning Engine: A proprietary, real-time orchestration engine built to maximize total publisher revenue. By treating editorial links as active participants in the ad auction, the platform dynamically prioritizes deeper user engagement whenever higher revenue is predicted on an editorial page. This introduces a smarter, more sustainable monetization model that simultaneously protects audience retention and expands the publisher's bottom line.
Multi-Demand Integration: Direct integration with Magnite's Demand Server connects publishers to programmatic demand through their preferred Prebid Server-compatible SSPs, creating greater competition, supply-chain efficiency, and yield across impressions.
Direct-Sold Campaign Execution: Seamlessly activate, manage, and optimize Sales House campaigns within EngageOS placements.
Uncompromising Transparency and Control: An AI-powered interface delivering visibility through buyer-level performance reporting - independently verifiable against trusted third-party analytics tools.
