What we changed

  1. 1

    Built the marketplace that connects advertisers with publishers instead of brokering each deal by hand.

  2. 2

    Automated ad placement across the publisher network so campaigns run without manual coordination per placement.

  3. 3

    Built the real-time campaign tracking and reporting both sides need to see what is actually happening.

Qualitative evidence

What changed operationally

  • Campaigns get placed across the network without a person coordinating each one.
  • Advertisers and publishers see campaign performance themselves instead of requesting a report.
  • The platform absorbs more campaigns without proportionally more operations staff.

Evidence standard: These are delivered workflow and operating-state changes supported by the project record. They are qualitative results, not estimated percentages or modelled savings.

Got a workflow like Paved’s?

Describe the process. We come back with what it costs today, what could be automated and what we would build first.

  • For established businesses from $5M in revenue, and products that are live, business-critical or already depended on
  • No long-term commitment
  • Start with one workflow or one system
  • Keep ownership of everything we build
