Digital Identity Resolution Technology Software & Services
With Viant's DSP, marketers have no need to look for a separate identity resolution provider. Viant's full identity resolution capability is built directly into our software, empowering marketers to identify customers no matter what device they're using. Without using cookies, marketers can create people-based segments for personalized messaging and perform closed-loop measurement, allowing them to truly understand their customers.
Why Identity Resolution Software Matters for Modern Marketers
In today's privacy-first digital landscape, identity resolution software has become essential for brands seeking to maintain meaningful customer relationships. As third-party cookies phase out and privacy regulations tighten, these platforms offer the infrastructure needed to connect customer touchpoints without compromising data protection standards.
This identity resolution software enables marketers to:
- Unify fragmented customer data across devices, browsers, and platforms into cohesive profiles
- Improve targeting accuracy by connecting anonymous browsing behavior to known customer identities
- Enhance personalization through a complete view of customer preferences and purchase history
- Measure campaign effectiveness with attribution that follows customers across their entire journey
- Maintain marketing effectiveness while respecting consumer privacy through consent-based matching
When evaluating vendors, marketers should prioritize platforms that combine deterministic matching capabilities with robust privacy protections. Viant's identity resolution software integrates with existing marketing technology stacks, providing real-time identity matching that powers both campaign activation and performance measurement.
Deterministic Matching
Viant's identity resolution capabilities include numerous strategic supply and data integrations, large-scale DSP activity, and activation across 1 billion known devices. Viant's identity graph receives millions of deterministic identification events and billions of real-time signals that help create, authenticate and enrich Viant® Household ID™ profiles.
People-Based Identity
While other DSPs claim to be people-based or identity-based, Viant's DSP has the true deterministic data to back it up. Our offline data is made up of real-world touchpoints, which are deterministically linked with addressable online identifiers to provide a people-based, omnichannel marketing approach, enabling marketers to reach target audiences with a personalized consumer experience. The residence-level identifiers we are able to leverage via Viant's Household ID™ technology come from every partner and publisher that we have worked with over our long history, a list that we continue to grow.
Deep Integrations
Integrations with more than 150 supply and data partners within Viant's identity graph are matched to create one of the largest pools of identity data and it's available to Viant users.
Householding®
With browser and device identifiers in question going forward, and with so many purchase decisions being made at the residence level, it has become critical for marketers to be able to target these homes.
Viant's Household ID™ technology allows marketers to target multiple connected devices within the same home, including TVs, smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart speakers and more. Marketers can also collect, track and report on actionable data, allowing them to better understand their customers and optimize their campaigns as needed.
Privacy & Security
Viant makes data protection a top priority, and strives to comply with internal and external regulations when classifying, labeling and encrypting data and supports applicable advanced hashing protocols. As such, Viant's identity graph is built on a foundation of direct consumer relationships and user consent with advanced opt-out capabilities to endeavor to keep privacy and security on the forefront.

Selecting the right identity resolution partner requires careful evaluation of technical capabilities, data quality, privacy standards, and integration flexibility. Viant's people-based platform delivers the scale and accuracy marketers need to connect customer touchpoints and drive measurable business outcomes.

How Viant Is Shaping the Future of Privacy-First Identity
The marketing landscape continues to evolve as privacy regulations expand, browser policies change, and consumer expectations shift. Viant is leading this transformation by building technology that maintains marketing effectiveness while respecting consumer privacy preferences, not as competing goals, but as complementary imperatives.
Empowering First-Party Data Strategies
Viant prioritizes first-party data activation, helping brands build direct customer relationships that don't depend on third-party cookies or external data sources. Our platform ingests, unifies, and activates brand-owned customer data at scale while maintaining data quality through automated hygiene protocols. This approach gives marketers sustainable competitive advantage as the industry moves beyond cookie-based tracking.
Privacy-Enhancing Technologies Built In
Viant incorporates advanced privacy protections—including differential privacy and secure computation methods—directly into our infrastructure. These technologies enable precise audience targeting while mathematically limiting individual consumer identification. As global regulations tighten, our technical approach to privacy provides both compliance assurance and marketing performance, giving clients confidence their campaigns meet evolving standards.
Leading Industry Interoperability
Viant actively participates in developing industry standards for authenticated traffic and identity framework collaborations. Our commitment to interoperability ensures seamless data synchronization across the marketing ecosystem while maintaining privacy protections. This leadership position means our clients benefit from emerging standards first, gaining early-mover advantages in efficiency and reach.
AI-Powered Accuracy and Fraud Prevention
Our platform leverages artificial intelligence to improve matching precision, detect identity fraud, and predict customer behavior patterns. Machine learning models continuously refine identity linking while reducing false matches—critical capabilities as identity signals fragment across platforms. This intelligence layer delivers higher campaign performance and lower wasted spend.
Hybrid Targeting for Maximum Flexibility
Viant combines deterministic identity matching with contextual targeting strategies, using identity data where available and appropriate while leveraging contextual signals in privacy-restricted environments. This hybrid approach ensures marketing effectiveness across all scenarios—from logged-in user experiences to privacy-forward browser contexts—without compromising performance.
The Viant Advantage
Our long-term success stems from balancing marketing effectiveness with genuine respect for consumer privacy. We invest heavily in privacy-enhancing technologies, maintain complete transparency about our data practices and matching methodologies, and partner with clients to navigate the evolving privacy landscape confidently.
