Court TV chooses UK’s Yospace for streaming advertising
The US legal streaming service is using Yospace for server-side ad insertion and targeted campaigns.
Translated from Dutch by AI
Court TV has selected Yospace for dynamic ad insertion in its advertising-supported streaming service. The British technology provider supplies server-side ad insertion, allowing adverts to be placed in streams for individual viewers or target audiences.
Yospace announced the partnership on 13 October. Court TV is using the technology to place programmatic, addressable adverts in its streaming offering. The service is available via Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV and Android TV, according to Yospace’s announcement.
Server-side ad insertion, or SSAI, adds advertising to the stream before it is sent to the viewer’s device. This differs from client-side insertion, where the player on the device itself has to retrieve and play an advert. SSAI can therefore offer a more consistent viewing experience across different devices, but requires precise coordination between the video stream, ad decisioning and measurement data.
Yospace says the implementation was completed in five weeks. The technology also uses dynamic prefetching: ad requests are prepared in advance to increase the likelihood that an ad slot will be filled completely. Observability dashboards are intended to give the operator insight into how ad insertion is working throughout the lifecycle of a stream.
The contract follows Law&Crime’s acquisition of Court TV in February 2026. Court TV delivers courtroom coverage, legal analysis, documentaries and original programmes across multiple video platforms. The combination of live and on-demand content makes ad insertion more technically demanding, as viewers can join at different points.
For European broadcasters and streaming services, the architecture is particularly relevant. SSAI is increasingly being used to turn a single linear or live feed into different advertising versions for each market, device or audience segment. Rights, privacy, measurement standards and cooperation with ad decisioning systems remain decisive for scalability.
Yospace and Law&Crime have not published revenue figures, fill rates, CPMs or independent measurement results. The claim that the solution maximises advertising revenue is therefore a commercial objective, not an established result. The implementation is, however, a concrete example of how a US streaming service is using a British adtech provider for connected television.
