As our Founder and CEO, Jeff Green, explained at Marketecture Media Live, programmatic advertising is a compelling use case for AI. Every decision happens in milliseconds. Every campaign has thousands of possible levers: bids, frequency, supply paths, formats, geography, creative, channels, etc. There's no single “right” answer. What works is often a combination of optimizations, not a silver bullet. AI isn’t valuable because it replaces human judgment. It’s valuable because it helps frame trade‑offs, surface better options, and navigate an impossible number of permutations quickly. The real opportunity is decision‑making at a scale humans can’t manage alone.
