The Targeted Advertising patent portfolio contains 14 U.S. patents within three patent families and discloses techniques for targeting advertising content to a viewer.

The claimed technology is utilized by every major online targeting advertising provider. The applicable Contextual Advertising Market is $333.25B worldwide and is expected to exceed $500B by 2023.

The key patent family is directed to utilizing a user identity and context data to optimally select content, for example an ad presented on a web page, in real-time. Rules are provided to better identify which content is most relevant at that precise moment in time for the target user. Ads may also be deprioritized to stop them from becoming stale. Additional claims provide for a specified bid value and prioritizing ads within a group. The portfolio is very early for the technology space with a priority date of 2003, while also providing considerable life left with 8 years of average remaining life for the patents.

The technology described in the patent portfolio is utilized by every major online advert provider that implements user contextual advertising. Online advertising providers that use customer match features, search history data, user identity, and bid value rankings to target content are all utilizing the claimed technologies. Additionally, the patented methods may be used for capping the frequency of adverts and retargeting previously selected advertisements in real-time.

The Targeted Advertising patent portfolio offers a tremendous opportunity for a company to acquire key patents in a hundred-billion-dollar global market. The early priority date provides strong coverage and the patent claims cover methods in widespread use in the contextual advertising marketplace, as evidenced by the fact that one major market participant has already benefited by electing to take a license to the patents.
