Taiv Inc. is a Canada-based advertising technology company revolutionizing how venues manage and monetize in-house television screens. Headquartered in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Taiv empowers hospitality, fitness, and retail businesses with AI-driven TV automation and targeted commercial insertion—turning passive screens into high-engagement revenue-generating assets.

Company Overview

Founded with the mission to optimize the idle screen time in commercial environments, Taiv delivers a smart, hardware-enabled platform that seamlessly blends live TV, streaming, digital signage, and interactive entertainment. Taiv is designed specifically for businesses such as sports bars, gyms, casinos, healthcare facilities, and hotel lobbies, where conventional television programming dominates but monetization and engagement are often underutilized.

Taiv transforms screens into dynamic tools for branding, upselling, and localized advertising—all while enhancing the viewer experience.

Core Business

Taiv's core offering is an AI-powered content delivery and advertising platform that automates TV channel switching and integrates location-specific digital signage during commercial breaks. This unique solution enables businesses to maintain live TV content while injecting brand messaging, third-party ads, or interactive content—without disrupting the viewing experience.

The company provides a plug-and-play hardware device (Taiv Box) paired with a cloud-based dashboard that allows full control over screen content from anywhere.
