BUSINESS MODEL:
Value Proposition
Pain Points Value Proposition
Programmable Bidder & Bidder
as a Service need a user
interface & algorithms
Advertiser have no full cost view
Data needs to be connected
end-to-end (campaign process)
Ad Ops is too manual &
mistakes are very expensive
Media planning & bidding algorithm
are created by the advertiser through
a user interface
Aggregating multiple cost vectors
into a unique view
A real-time DMP is the core of
optimization (2nd & 3rd party)
5% of Ad Ops actions will meet the
ROI
