Top Programmatic Platforms by Category

Programmatic advertising relies on four categories of platforms to function: Demand-Side Platforms (DSPs), Supply-Side Platforms (SSPs), Ad Exchanges, and Data Management Platforms (DMPs).

Advertisers make use of DSPs to bid for digital ad space, while publishers make use of SSPs for selling their ad spaces. 

An ad exchange serves as a marketplace for connecting advertisers and publishers through their respective platforms. A DMP collects all kinds of data related to an advertiser's ideal customer.

Now, let’s explore some of the best programmatic ad platforms in each category.

1. Demand-Side Platforms (DSPs)

A demand-side platform (DSP) allows advertisers to bid for ad impressions on publisher websites. It also enables advertisers to filter their target audience based on specific criteria like location, age, past online behavior, gender, and more.

Here are some of the most popular programmatic DSPs:

Adobe Advertising Cloud DSP

2. Supply Side Platform (SSP)

A supply-side platform (SSP) focuses on helping publishers (website owners) sell ad space on their apps, websites, and other digital properties.

These platforms use automation to determine the optimal price for each ad space and sell to the best bidder. SSPs work with ad networks to connect publishers to a broader pool of advertisers.

Let’s take a look at a few of the leading SSPs in the industry.

PubMatic

PubMatic offers services for both media buyers and publishers. As an SSP, it provides an impressive collection of tools to help publishers optimize the monetization potential of all their digital assets.

This includes tools for header bidding, RTB advertising, Private Marketplaces (PMP), and ad quality.

• Anti-fraud/Safety Measures for Publishers: Uses real-time scanning and strategic partnerships to safeguard publisher’s audiences across ad formats, channels, and screens

Google Ad Manager 

Programmatic publishers utilize an average of 6 SSPs to sell ad space to advertisers. Despite this, Google remains the most popular SSP among publishers, claiming 51% of the industry’s market share.

In fact, 75% of ad impressions in the US come from Google Ad Manager. More insights in the Twitter thread below.

Google Ad Manager exists for large publishers with significant direct sales. Some of the tools it offers include server-side header bidding, managed PMPs, advanced dashboard and reporting system, and more.

Criteo

Criteo is a programmatic advertising solution with a commerce-first approach—tailored more for retail, ecommerce, and performance marketing than broad awareness campaigns.

It uses its proprietary commerce media network to deliver personalized ads based on real-time shopper behavior across thousands of publishers and retailers.

Unlike traditional DSPs that rely heavily on third-party data and open exchange inventory, Criteo leverages its direct integrations with retailers and first-party commerce data. This gives advertisers access to high-intent audiences and product-level targeting that aligns with shopping behavior, not just general demographics.

Criteo’s closed-loop measurement allows marketers to track the full path to purchase, connecting ad exposure to actual sales outcomes. This makes it especially valuable for brands focused on lower-funnel performance and measurable ROI.

Read the thread for more details on how Criteo monitors users and matches data on user behaviors.

• Supported Ad Inventory: Display, native, video (desktop and mobile), and in-app; primarily focused on commerce media inventory across Criteo’s network of retailers and publishers
• Anti-fraud/Safety Measures for Publishers: Proprietary fraud prevention system focused on commerce intent signals; strict supply-side controls via its closed network; brand safety enforced through curated publisher partnerships and internal review processes

Magnite (ex Rubicon Project)

Magnite, formerly known as Rubicon Project, is one of the leading SSP for inventory monetization across CTV, video, display, and mobile environments. It connects premium media owners with top-tier demand sources through real-time auctions and programmatic deals.

Magnite is strongly focused on connected TV and video monetization. The platform is purpose-built to handle the complex needs of CTV publishers, offering advanced tools for ad podding, ad frequency capping, and audience segmentation.

• Anti-fraud/Safety Measures for Publishers: Offers pre-bid and post-bid protections, ads.txt and sellers.json compliance, integration with third-party verification; also supports traffic filtering and auction-level transparency

3. Ad Exchanges

Ad Exchanges position themselves as the intermediary between advertisers and publishers. 

Publishers come to ad exchanges to submit ad impressions which are then presented to advertisers for bidding in real-time.

Here are some of the best ad exchanges in the industry.

Xandr

Originally called AppNexus, Xandr is a leading programmatic advertising company offering a full stack of programmatic advertising services. This means it provides services, such as a DSP, SSP, and an Ad Exchange.

As an Ad Exchange, Xandr serves over 11.4 billion ad impressions daily.

One of its most notable features is its header bidding wrapper, which makes header bidding more convenient and efficient for publishers. The platform supports different ad inventory, including video, banner, audio, native, and more.

Xander partners with White Ops, an MRC-accredited company, for ensuring brand safety across its marketplace.

SmartyAds

SmartyAds provides a white-label ad exchange platform, Smart Hub, which has recorded over 25,000 publishers and 2 billion impressions daily.

It also serves as a full-stack programmatic ad tech platform, offering services as a DSP and SSP to both advertisers and publishers. The platform is compatible with a wide range of traffic types and ad formats, including video, banner, audio, native, push, pop, and more.

Compared to Xandr, SmartyAds offers a more comprehensive collection of security and anti-fraud features and partnerships to make the marketplace safer for publishers and advertisers.

PubMatic

PubMatic makes a second appearance in this guide, thanks to its incredible capabilities as a full-stack ad tech platform.

As an ad exchange, PubMatic has established itself as an industry leader with over 171 billion ad impressions per day. Publishers benefit from its ease-of-use, DMP integrations, and open-source header bidding.

On the advertisers' side, PubMatic offers integration with various security tools to prevent fraudulent practices and ensure brand safety.

4. Data Management Platforms (DMPs)

DMPs are less talked about in programmatic advertising platforms realm. But they're equally as important. Advertisers use all kinds of data when developing a campaign strategy to ensure their ads are relevant to their prospects.

DSPs automatically place bids for ad spaces in the marketplace, but to ensure that the purchased ads are aimed at the right demographic, these platforms take advantage of data supplied by DMPs. Publishers, on the other hand, use DMPs to store and analyze user data to get a better understanding of their website visitors.

Here are some of the most popular DMPs in the industry.

The Trade Desk

Alongside a DSP, The Trade Desk offers a DMP to help advertisers and publishers collect, manage, and activate their data in one place.

One of its most popular features is its lookalike modeling which allows you to discover new audiences based on insights from your existing audiences. It also offers a data marketplace where users can access high-quality audiences from data providers.

TheTradeDesk is actively expanding in the DMP sector. For example, TikTok and theTradeDesk launched a partnership not long ago. This collaboration will drive more brands to the platform and stimulate the growth of advertising on TikTok.

Audience Studio by Salesforce

Salesforce is widely known for its CRM system. However, the company also offers a Data Management Platform for advertisers.

Formerly known as Salesforce DMP, Audience Studio allows advertisers to capture data from any source and segment this data using machine learning algorithms. It also offers a native consent management framework to help advertisers maintain transparency and trust with their customers.

Lotame

Lotame is an industry-leading DMP that offers a wide range of services, including audience management, data marketplace, and identity resolution.

It allows its users to access first-party data from sources like emails, CRMs, social media, apps, and more. It also provides the opportunity to expand on available data through its data marketplace.

Lotame’s DMP, however, lacks live reporting features and loads relatively slowly. 

Protect Ad Revenue with Smarter Marketing Data Governance

Programmatic advertising involves managing countless moving parts—targeting parameters, budget allocations, creative variations, and platform-specific nuances. 

Even small inconsistencies can lead to wasted spend or missed opportunities.

Improvado’s Marketing Data Governance tackles these challenges by automating the monitoring and validation of campaign guidelines in real time. It identifies and flags misaligned targeting, incorrect budget allocations, and underperforming segments before they escalate into bigger problems. 

By ensuring campaigns stay aligned with goals and benchmarks throughout their lifecycle, it empowers advertisers to adjust and optimize campaigns on the go, not after execution. This proactive approach reduces inefficiencies and maximizes both ROAS and ad spend efficiency.

Here’s an example of DV360 parameters Marketing Data Governance monitors: 

• Keywords added for the insertion order,

FAQs

General questions 

What is an ad exchange?

An ad exchange is a digital marketplace where advertisers and publishers buy and sell advertising inventory in real-time auctions. It enables automated ad buying by connecting supply-side platforms (SSPs), which represent publishers, with demand-side platforms (DSPs), used by advertisers. 

Ad exchanges allow for efficient, data-driven transactions based on criteria such as audience segmentation, bid price, and ad format, supporting display, video, mobile, and other types of inventory across the open web.

What are the benefits and drawbacks of using programmatic ad platforms?

Benefits of using programmatic ad platforms:

• Automates ad buying across thousands of publishers, enabling efficient campaign management at scale.
• Supports audience segmentation by demographics, behavior, location, and intent using real-time data.
• Adjusts bids and creative dynamically based on performance metrics and market signals.
• Unifies ad delivery across multiple channels and formats, including display, video, mobile, audio, and connected TV.
• Reduces waste through real-time bidding and better control of ad frequency capping, pacing, and audience overlap.

Drawbacks of using programmatic platforms:

• Limited visibility into media placements, intermediaries, and actual costs within the supply chain.
• Requires expertise in data integration, bid strategies, and platform configurations to avoid inefficiencies.
• Fragmented platforms and disconnected data sources can limit visibility across the full marketing funnel.
• Heavy reliance on a single DSP or ecosystem may reduce flexibility and cross-platform insights.

Technical questions 

What is the difference between DSPs, SSPs, and DMPs?

DSPs, SSPs, and DMPs each serve different roles in how ads are bought, sold, and targeted. Here's a side-by-side comparison to clarify their functions.

What role does artificial intelligence play in programmatic advertising?

Artificial intelligence enables real-time optimization at scale by analyzing large volumes of signals, such as user behavior, contextual relevance, device type, and historical performance, to dynamically adjust bids, targeting parameters, and creative delivery. 

It powers lookalike modeling, probabilistic attribution, and frequency capping decisions based on predicted conversion likelihood rather than static rules. AI also supports anomaly detection in campaign performance, pacing control, and ad fraud prevention.

What are the best practices for ensuring brand safety in programmatic campaigns?

Here are top 3 best practices for ensuring brand safety in programmatic campaigns: 

1. Implement pre-bid brand safety filters and verification tools like DoubleVerify, IAS, or MOAT to block unsafe content categories (e.g., adult, violence, misinformation) before bidding occurs. It reduces exposure to high-risk inventory without relying solely on post-campaign cleanup.
2. Leverage private marketplaces (PMPs) and prioritize curated marketplace segments to control media quality and context. PMPs offer more transparency and reduce the chance of appearing next to objectionable or low-quality content.
3. Maintain dynamic blocklists of domains and apps flagged for inappropriate or fraudulent content, and use allowlists for verified partners. Complement this with contextual advertising (rather than behavioral targeting only) to ensure ads appear in relevant, brand-aligned environments.

How do I measure the success and ROI of my programmatic advertising?

To accurately measure ROI of programmatic advertising, apply a multi-layered framework:

• Cost-efficiency metrics: Go beyond CPM and CPC by tracking eCPM (effective cost per 1000 impressions) and eCPA (effective cost per acquisition) across audience segments and channels. Break down these metrics by inventory type, exchange, and device to identify inefficiencies or wasted spend.
• Revenue attribution: Use incrementality testing to measure true lift in conversions or revenue driven by digital ad campaigns. Complement this with multi-touch attribution or data-driven models to assign weighted credit across the buyer journey rather than relying on last-click logic.
• Quality and engagement signals: Track viewability metrics, attention metrics, brand safety violations, and IVT (invalid traffic) levels using third-party verification. High-quality media environments correlate strongly with downstream ROI and brand lift.

Finally, unify programmatic platform data with first-party business data (CRM, LTV, offline conversions) inside a centralized analytics platform or BI layer to produce holistic ROI insights that map media efficiency to actual business outcomes.

Platform-specific questions

Is Criteo a DSP or SSP?

Criteo primarily operates as a demand-side platform, though it also has supply-side capabilities through its direct publisher integrations, making it more of a hybrid but its core function is demand-side, focused on ad buying and retargeting.

Is Google Ads considered a programmatic advertising platform?

Yes, Google Ads is considered a programmatic advertising platform, but with limitations. It automates ad buying using real-time bidding for placements across Google’s inventory (Search, Display Network, YouTube), yet lacks the openness and scale of enterprise DSPs like DV360 that access broader third-party exchanges and inventory.

Does Facebook offer programmatic ad buying?

Yes, Facebook (Meta) offers programmatic ad buying, but it operates within a closed ecosystem. Ads are bought programmatically through Meta Ads Manager using automated bidding and audience targeting, but unlike open DSPs, it doesn't allow access to third-party inventory or external exchanges.

Is Spotify’s advertising solution programmatic?

Yes, Spotify now offers programmatic ad buying through its Spotify Ad Exchange (SAX), launched in early 2025. This platform enables advertisers to purchase Spotify's audio, video, and display inventory in real time via major demand-side platforms (DSPs) such as The Trade Desk, Google Display & Video 360 (DV360), and Magnite.

SAX supports various buying methods, including open auction, private marketplaces, and programmatic guaranteed deals. 

How does header bidding improve ad inventory performance?

Header bidding improves ad inventory performance by allowing publishers to offer impressions to multiple demand sources simultaneously before calling their ad server. This increases competition, drives up CPMs, and improves yield by enabling real-time price comparison across DSPs. It also reduces reliance on a single demand partner, giving publishers more control and transparency over who wins the auction and at what price.

Comparative questions

What is the difference between PPC advertising and programmatic advertising?

PPC advertising and programmatic advertising are both digital media buying models, but they differ in scope, automation, and media inventory management. 

Should I choose programmatic guaranteed deals or open RTB?

The choice depends on your campaign objectives, budget control needs, and brand safety requirements.

When to choose programmatic guaranteed deals:

• You need fixed pricing and guaranteed inventory on high-quality or premium placements.
• You want brand-safe environments and full transparency into publisher context.
• You’re running awareness-driven campaigns that demand scale and predictable delivery.
• You have negotiated deals with specific publishers or prefer direct relationships.

When to choose open RTB:

• You prioritize cost efficiency and want to maximize reach through auction-based buying.
• You’re focused on performance-driven campaigns with flexible bidding strategies.
• You’re optimizing toward specific audiences, leveraging data and algorithms to target across a wide inventory pool.
• You’re comfortable with dynamic pricing and varying inventory quality, managed through brand safety filters and allowlists.

How do DSPs differ from traditional media buying agencies?

DSPs differ from traditional media buying agencies by enabling algorithmic, real-time bidding across multiple ad exchanges with precise audience targeting and dynamic budget allocation. 

Unlike agencies that negotiate fixed inventory buys and rely on historical planning, DSPs integrate with data platforms, optimize toward performance signals in real time, and provide transparent, impression-level reporting—offering greater efficiency, scale, and accountability.

How do I choose a DSP?

To choose a DSP, evaluate alignment with your campaign objectives, data strategy, and media mix. 

Prioritize platforms that offer:

• Robust inventory access across display, video, CTV, and native channels,
• Advanced targeting and data integration (1P/3P, CRM, CDP),
• Transparent advertising analytics and real-time optimization controls,
• Brand safety, fraud prevention, and compliance features,
• Seamless integrations with your analytics stack (e.g., DMPs, attribution tools, BI platforms).

Which DSP is best?

There is no single “best” DSP. Selection depends on your budget, ad placement strategies, and data strategy. However, here are a couple of top-tier platforms:

• Google Display & Video 360 (DV360): Best for advertisers deeply embedded in the Google ecosystem, with access to YouTube, strong integrations with GA4 and CM360, and premium inventory.
• The Trade Desk: Ideal for multichannel marketing campaigns and advanced targeting; offers strong data partnerships, open web reach, and leading CTV capabilities.
• Amazon DSP: Best for ecommerce and retail brands leveraging Amazon’s first-party shopping data across web and CTV inventory.
• Xandr: Strong for large-scale buyers focused on premium supply, programmatic guaranteed, and curated deals.
