Aarki rebrands as RZR, expanding into cross-screen performance platform processing 6M queries per second

Aarki, a performance marketing platform with over a decade of mobile advertising experience, has rebranded as RZR. The new identity reflects the company's expansion into a connected, cross-screen performance system that optimises user acquisition, retargeting, connected television and influencer campaigns. RZR's platform processes over 6 million queries per second and now serves brands across gaming, food and beverage, consumer apps, retail and entertainment. The company operates through proprietary neural architecture that treats all digital advertising channels as one connected system rather than siloed tactics. The rebrand follows significant investment in cross-screen measurement and a push into connected television as a performance channel. RZR now uses OEM data partnerships to target CTV audiences using behavioural signals whilst measuring mobile outcomes like installs and return on ad spend. The company operates offices across San Francisco, New York, London, Bangalore, Beijing, Manila and Seoul.
