Active Agent

In today’s fragmented advertising landscape, audiences move fluidly across devices, screens, and content environments. Advertisers face the challenge of reaching the right audience at the right moment and in the right context - while ensuring transparency, efficiency, and measurable performance.

Active Agent DSP addresses this complexity as an omnichannel demand-side platform that unites all programmatically available channels on a single platform, including Display, Native, Video, Advanced TV (ATV/CTV/PTV), DOOH/OOH, Cinema, and Audio. It enables intelligent campaign planning, execution, optimization, and reporting across channels, combining real-time bidding, advanced targeting, and seamless integration into modern ad-tech ecosystems.

Serving as a central orchestration layer within the programmatic value chain, the platform connects advertisers to open exchanges, private marketplaces, and direct publisher deals. It evaluates millions of bid requests in real time, assessing each impression against campaign objectives, targeting logic, budgets, and KPIs before executing bidding decisions within milliseconds. At the same time, it ensures full transparency into inventory sources, bidding logic, and performance metrics.

The platform offers a structured and scalable campaign architecture tailored to agencies and in-house teams. Campaigns define objectives, budgets, and timing, while line items enable granular targeting and strategy differentiation. Integrated creative workflows support Display, Native, Video, and TV formats, ensuring efficient activation across environments.

A key differentiator is its household graph technology, which identifies and clusters devices within the same household. This enables cross-device frequency management, sequential messaging, and holistic user journey analysis - shifting optimization from isolated impressions to true audience orchestration.

At its core, the real-time bidding engine evaluates requests against targeting, pacing, and predicted performance, supporting multiple optimization strategies while maintaining trader control. Real-time dashboards and granular reporting provide insights across campaigns, inventory, and audiences, with API integrations ensuring alignment with enterprise data systems.

Built as a modular and interoperable solution, Active Agent DSP integrates seamlessly with SSPs, DMPs, CDPs, and measurement partners via open standards. It can operate standalone or as part of complex infrastructures.

By combining automation, transparency, cross-channel convergence, and household-level intelligence, Active Agent DSP transforms programmatic buying into a scalable, data-driven orchestration engine - built for the future of cross-device and cross-channel advertising.
