Taboola launched Realize ID as a unified identity-mapping offering for performance marketers to help advertisers contend with increasingly fragmented consumer journeys across devices, platforms, and content environments. Early use of the offering has shown up to a 2.4x increase in conversion efficiency driven by signal-enriched predicted intent models.
The platform utilizes Taboola's first-party data across three broad categories: media consumption signals like content engagement and time spent on site, ad interactions such as clicks and video views, and buying behavior including conversion data and mid-funnel actions. These signals are combined across billions of buyer journeys and analyzed using AI models.
Taboola cited data showing that 70% of consumers now involve generative AI search in their shopping decisions, which adds another layer to an already fragmented path to purchase as consumers move between news, editorial content, search, email, and AI interfaces.
