Index Exchange retained its top spot on the Amazon Fire TV index, marking its sixth consecutive quarter at the helm.

FreeWheel secured the top position on both the Roku and Samsung Smart TV indexes, also maintaining its six-quarter dominance on Samsung.

OpenX and Magnite consistently ranked within the top three across all platforms.
