Our take
Yieldmo is an advertising technology company that has carved out a niche in the industry by operating a smarter version of an exchange. By utilizing cutting-edge machine learning and optimization techniques, the company curates ad inventory in real time, enabling advertisers to access the highest-performing options.
Yieldmo's system combines attention signals (such as gestures, interest, and visibility) with environmental signals like situational and timing factors. From this data it can predict user engagement, and match buyers to the sellers that will maximise outcomes such as click-through and video completion rates - and hence conversion.
The company has secured an impressive number of patents, including for its Smart Curation technology, which back up its position as an innovator. One of its more recent focusses has been on AI-powered software with capabilities such as real-time attention measurement, or the ability to dynamically adjust and optimize ad content.
