Graph | Experian's identity graph

Gain a consolidated view of consumers’ digital identities with Graph

What is Graph, Experian’s identity graph?

Graph provides businesses with a condensed and integrated view of consumers’ digital identities. Digital identifiers like IPs, HEMs, MAIDs, first- and third-party cookies, CTV IDs, and universal IDs are vital for marketers to understand consumers, but they are often scattered across multiple devices. This information can be consolidated in an identity graph, allowing businesses to better understand audiences and make efficient, data-driven marketing decisions.

The Experian Graph offers unparalleled reach and scale with 2.75 billion IDs

Managing the many digital identities assigned to households and individuals requires a comprehensive tool for resolving identity. Graph provides expansive data coverage across:

Over 250M individuals and 126 million households 

1 trillion device signals and 490M mobile ad IDs

200 million CTV IDs and 750M hashed emails 

Experian’s identity graph is designed for efficiency. Here’s how.

Our identity graph is scalable and flexible to meet your company’s unique needs.

Reduce wasted ad spend

Experian’s identity graph directly addresses a significant challenge digital advertisers face — wasted ad spend. According to the Digital Media Wastage Report, digital advertisers wasted 41% of their ad spend in 2022. Waste is happening due to signal loss, inaccurate targeting, and the inability to reach the intended audience. Our ID graph tackles this problem by minimizing signal loss, improving targeting accuracy, and ensuring ads reach the intended audience.
