JioHotstar CTV: Living-Room Co-Viewing Data Sharpens
JioHotstar CTV reporting improved co-viewing signals — households, not devices, finally priced into CTV buying.
Last reviewed
September 2025 JioHotstar improved CTV co-viewing measurement — household-level viewing signals rather than device-only counts, a structural fix for CTV's oldest inflation problem.
What you need to know
The update in four points:
- Co-viewing factors adjust household impressions
- Device-only counts are being corrected in reporting
- Advertisers can finally compare CTV to linear on real reach
- Still early: co-viewing models vary by inventory
What this means for advertisers
CTV sold on device counts has always overstated reach; the living room is a household. Integrated co-viewing signals are the first honest step — and they change CPM comparisons against TV.
Next step
Re-shape your CTV reach goals using household-adjusted numbers; if compelling co-viewing data lifts effective reach, re-negotiate CPM expectations with the stronger evidence.
