Live TV on PS5 launched on August 31, 2026, and the initial advertising opportunities center on premium video. PubMatic's AgenticOS includes more than 20 specialized artificial intelligence agents and workflows for audience discovery, inventory curation, activation, measurement and fee transparency, the company said.

The commercial importance lies in connecting premium connected-TV inventory with measurable buying tools. PubMatic's second-quarter 2026 revenue reached USD 78.59 million, up 10.5 percent from a year earlier and 13.7 percent above analyst expectations, according to Yahoo Finance. That result provides a measurable baseline for judging whether new CTV partnerships translate into sustained growth.
