We believe that a rising tide lifts all boats.
If you’ve heard an ad while streaming music or listening to a podcast, chances are high that you’ve been exposed to our technology. Since our inception in 2008, we have built an agnostic technology platform that enables audio publishers, of any size, to monetize their content and connect with advertisers, of any size, to bring listeners a relevant and positive ad experience.
In early 2010, we developed the first ever solution to serve one-to-one targeted ads to online radio listeners in a unique, new way through server-side ad-insertion, and the company immediately began growing fast to meet the new demand.
We added an audio analytics component through the acquisition of WebMediaStats in 2011, and began growing quickly in Europe. We successfully launched a global digital audio marketplace in 2012, and kicked off the first-ever dynamic ad insertion trials for podcasts. In 2013, after more global publishers adopted our digital audio advertising platform, we further strengthened our footprint in Europe.


We continued building out our full stack digital audio programmatic offering with our ad management and trafficking solution, AudioServe, in 2014, and our audio-centric SSP, AudioMax, in 2015.
In 2016, we consolidated our podcast ad serving infrastructure with the first-ever programmatic podcast marketplace and introduced AudioMatic, our audio-centric DSP, optimized for podcasts. Then, in 2017, we began to move beyond traditional ad publishing with innovative audio formats such as ShakeMe™, to help advertisers better engage with audiences. We also worked with major agencies and publishers to introduce audio advertising on smart speakers.

How to Maximize the Value of Every Podcast Impression
Pricing audio inventory shouldn’t feel like guesswork, but for many publishers, it still does. How much is an impression actually worth? Why does one show command a $25 CPM while another struggles to reach $8? And how much of that difference is within your control? CPM benchmarks provide a useful starting point, but they don’t...
Audio Days Milan 2026: It’s Time to Rethink How Audio Fits Into Media Strategies
Being a part of AdsWizz Audio Days Milan 2026, what struck me most was how quickly the conversation moved past the basics. No one was asking whether audio works anymore. The discourse had already moved to what’s coming next. We’ve reached a point where what matters now is what that changes, and how quickly strategies...
Scaling Podcast Advertising Starts with Confidence
Podcasting already has scale. The audience is there, engagement is strong, and it continues to be brand safe. What’s not fully there yet is buyer confidence. A significant portion of inventory still goes underutilized, not because it lacks value, but because advertisers don’t always feel confident in how content is evaluated. That’s what tends to...
How Relevance Shapes Audio Advertising Performance
From podcasts in the morning to streaming at the gym to connected devices at home, listening is continuous, but a lot less predictable than it used to be. What’s changed isn’t just where audio happens. It’s who’s listening and how they respond. Today’s audience spans generations, but younger, more diverse, and more global listeners are...
