Prequel: About

The company operates a two-sided programmatic marketplace linking mobile app publishers and SDK owners on the supply side with agencies, trading desks, ad networks and other buyers on the demand side. Its core value creation comes from facilitating real-time bidding across devices, improving yield for publishers through better fill rates and eCPM optimisation, and giving buyers access to mobile inventory with controls for targeting, brand safety and invalid traffic blocking.

On top of the exchange, it offers a proprietary campaign management platform (Phoenix) that automates optimisation (bids, eCPM, inventory filtering, regional targeting) and fraud detection. This allows demand partners to manage and optimise campaigns with less manual effort and provides publishers with higher-quality demand. The in-house app studio develops and publishes mobile apps and games, which both generate consumer engagement and create owned ad inventory that can be monetised through the exchange.
