StackAdapt specializes in programmatic advertising, which uses software to automate the buying of digital ads. The company provides a platform that enables businesses to run display, video, and native advertising campaigns efficiently. Its main product is a Demand Side Platform (DSP) that allows advertisers to purchase digital ad space in real-time, ensuring that ads reach the right audience at the right moment. Unlike many competitors, StackAdapt does not require monthly minimum spending, giving clients flexibility in their advertising budgets. Additionally, StackAdapt is recognized for its expertise in native advertising, which blends seamlessly with the content of the platform it appears on, making it less disruptive for users. The company's goal is to help agencies and brands maximize their digital advertising efforts through a comprehensive platform that includes access to a wide range of inventory sources and specialized creative services.
