Distinction
This company is an independent adtech platform providing SSP, DSP/curation, SSAI, identity, and retail media technology, not a media agency or a pure publisher. It should be distinguished from single-point SSPs or DSPs because it offers a broad, integrated stack across supply, demand, CTV, and retail media.

For advertisers and agencies, it offers an AI-driven planning and curation/DSP environment, creative enhancement tools, and a data and identity layer for addressable, privacy-conscious targeting.
