European netID Exec Discusses Deterministic IDs and AI's Impact

In an interview, Daniel Dagehus, CTPO of the European netID Foundation, discusses the evolving role of deterministic identifiers in the open web. He argues that while AI and probabilistic models are useful for planning and simulation, deterministic IDs remain essential for campaign activation and delivery to real people across devices. netID has integrated with major ad tech platforms, including The Trade Desk, enabling advertisers to target deterministic segments. Dagehus emphasizes the importance of publisher login relationships to maintain direct user contact and independence from tech providers, especially as AI chatbots change the customer journey. He also highlights FedCM as a standard that can simplify logins and support publisher strategies for direct audience relationships.

• netID has integrated with The Trade Desk, allowing booking of netID and Utiq segments in its Data Marketplace.
• netID is a deterministic identifier tied to user accounts and email addresses, providing cross-device identity.
