🔗RIP SnappyTV: Twitter releases publisher tool for live video clipping
Twitter’s hope is that the new tool — two years in the making — makes publishers’ experiences easier on Twitter and therefore incentivizes them to produce more on the platform. Over the past few years, Twitter has invested significantly in video and helping publishers successfully monetize it through pre-roll and mid-roll ads as well as branded content. In 2017, Twitter made its debut at the NewFronts with a slate of live shows with partners like BuzzFeed, MLB and Cheddar. Ahead of the 2019 NewFronts, Twitter touted its paid 60% more revenue to publishers in 2018 than the year prior.
