Who we are:
Taiv is a fast-growing startup. We build a TV box that detects and replaces TV commercials in restaurants/bars. This lets us show more relevant content, such as the venue's own drink specials, upcoming events, etc. during the commercial breaks, as well as sell more targeted (and valuable) ads. Also stand alone single screens that use our box to run digital signage in gas stations, marts, and different shops.

We’re the first (and only) company in the world that can detect TV commercials accurately. We share a significant percentage of our ad revenue with our restaurant partners. We help make local businesses more profitable and are really proud of what we do.
