Adbrain

In November, Notion portfolio company Adbrain, was acquired by The Trade Desk. The companies have been working together since 2015. The Trade Desk said that Adbrain’s technology will give them “a proprietary deterministic device graph” to match a user’s identity across different devices.

Jeff Green, The Trade Desk CEO, said: “With this acquisition we will develop a proprietary device graph that combines Adbrain’s technology with login data, giving advertisers and brands on The Trade Desk platform an independent alternative to walled gardens.”
