Building on the successful integration of Airtimes, WideOrbit and Hudson MX are now focused on improving the pre-buy and order stewardship processes for media buyers and broadcasters. The two companies have been collaborating on streamlining processes and leveraging TIP Protocols to eliminate the time-consuming tasks that can make local TV buying slow, costly, and inefficient. Through the tighter integration of the two platforms, the combined offering will bring the speed, accountability, and results that marketers are increasingly demanding from their media investments.
This partnership brings together two companies committed to immediately enabling modernization of the process for buying and selling local broadcast television. WideOrbit's WO Traffic, a broadcast station group system of record, is used to manage more than 90% of U.S. local TV ad revenue. Hudson MX is working to level the playing field—both in terms of ad budget share and workflow management—between buyers of local TV and their digital media peers. Since January of 2019, Hudson MX's BuyerAssist ™ has already been used to transact $2 billion in local ad buys among 700 buyers and 3,000 sellers across 30 of the largest agencies and all 210 markets.
The workflow improvements will come through an integration of Hudson MX's BuyerAssist ™ platform and WideOrbit's Unified Sales Console through the AgencyCloud API suite. By working directly with Hudson MX, WideOrbit is building tools that fit immediately and seamlessly with current agency workflows. Integrations are in process with full end-to-end solution available by the end of Q3 2019, in order to support all 2020 buys.
"Buyers deserve modern tools that free up time for them to focus on delivering the full value of local TV to their brands" said JT Batson, CEO and Founder of Hudson MX. "In collaboration with our visionary agency partners, we have developed a new platform that not only empowers buyers, but is also capable of integrating seamlessly with a broadcaster's existing systems. We were very excited that WideOrbit jumped on board as our first official partner. We are grateful to Eric and his team for the enthusiasm, speed, and urgency they've brought to this effort. The result is that their broadcasters will be ready to take full advantage of the benefits of this new partnership for all 2020 buys. Their meaningful investment sets the standard for how others can step up to help grow the local broadcast ecosystem."
"The WideOrbit-Hudson MX partnership is a big win for local TV advertising buyers and sellers," said Eric R. Mathewson, Founder and CEO at WideOrbit. "Buyers will benefit from workflow modernization that streamlines the entire buying process, while leaving buyers and sellers in complete control of their inventory. Now that local buyers have modern tools and data at their fingertips they can continually deliver superior results for advertisers in less time. Thus, stations should see more interest from national brands in their local broadcast TV audiences and inventory."

Mathewson continued, "By deepening our relationship with Hudson MX, WideOrbit delivers on our promise of continually improving solutions that allow ad buyers and sellers to do business however they choose. We will continue to focus on products, integrations, and innovations that make local broadcasting as compelling to ad buyers as any other type of media."
The WideOrbit / Hudson MX Partnership is further evidence of the two companies' continued support for the TIP Initiative. TIP (Television Interface Practices) is an industry working group dedicated to promoting open interfaces to streamline advertising transactions for local TV broadcasters and their media agency partners.
