KERV.ai Achieves the Trusted Partner Network Gold Star Certification for Premium Streaming Content Security and Privacy

First AI-video technology platform specializing in contextual commerce to achieve this certification

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KERV.ai, the leader in video analysis, performance, and monetization, today announced it has achieved the Trusted Partner Network (TPN) Gold Star certification, reinforcing its commitment to the highest standards of content security and data protection for customers, partners, and premium content owners.

As AI and cloud-based workflows become increasingly central to advertising, trust has become a more critical differentiator. KERV.ai's platform processes premium video content alongside audience, advertising, and performance data, making security fundamental to every single customer engagement.

Administered by the Motion Picture Association (MPA), TPN is the global benchmark for content security across the media and entertainment ecosystem. TPN Gold Star certification is awarded to organizations that successfully complete one of the industry's most rigorous independent security assessments, demonstrating comprehensive controls to protect premium content, data, and digital workflows across the entire media supply chain. TPN’s certification model includes four tiers: Blue, Silver, Gold, and Gold Star. Gold Star represents full completion of TPN’s Best Practice and Additional Recommendation requirements.

Reaching the highest level of certification goes beyond demonstrating compliance; it raises the standard for how partners can securely innovate around premium content and unlock new opportunities across the media ecosystem.

Partner benefits include:

• Highest Confidence in Who You Trust With Your Content: Clients and partners can work with KERV.ai knowing its security practices have been independently assessed against recognized entertainment-industry standards, adding another layer of confidence when valuable content and assets are involved.
• Less Security Friction, Faster Paths to Partnership: Working with a vendor that has already undergone a recognized industry assessment can help simplify security conversations, reduce diligence friction, and make it easier to move from evaluation to activation.
• More Opportunity Without Compromising Content Protection: As advertising, commerce, and interactivity move closer to premium content, partners need technology that can unlock new experiences while respecting the security requirements surrounding those assets.
• A Partner Built to the Standards of Premium Media: Choosing KERV.ai means working with a technology partner that invests not only in innovation but also in the security infrastructure, processes, and accountability required to operate within the premium media ecosystem.

“Trust is the foundation of every partnership we cultivate at KERV.ai,” said Gary Mittman, CEO, KERV.ai. “Innovation shouldn’t require a tradeoff with that trust. As we expand our Moment Match Engine™ and deepen direct partnerships across premium supply, we’re creating more opportunities for brands and media owners to activate against the moments that matter most. Achieving TPN Gold Star status provides independent validation of the security standards we’ve built into our business and gives clients and partners greater confidence to unlock the full value of moment-based contextual targeting with a technology partner built to protect premium content. As we scale, we’ll continue investing in the security, privacy, and compliance standards that enable our partners to innovate with confidence.”

As KERV.ai continues to scale its processing of live and on-demand video across an expanding volume of premium content, maintaining the highest standards of privacy and security remains a top priority. Achieving TPN Gold Star is more than passing a security audit; it validates that security is embedded in how KERV.ai designs, builds, and operates the business. The certification represents the culmination of a three-year, company-wide investment in security, privacy, and operational excellence. Teams across Engineering, IT, Product, Operations, HR, Finance, and Corporate Security collaborated to strengthen controls, document processes, and successfully complete the extensive independent assessment required to achieve this highly regarded status.
