About Us

Magnite was born in 2020 when the programmatic ad pioneers at Rubicon Project teamed up with the CTV experts at Telaria. To accelerate our CTV ambitions, we acquired CTV leader SpotX and ad management platform SpringServe in 2021. Now, Magnite is the industry’s largest scaled, independent CTV/video ad platform. Though CTV and video are now as important to Magnite as ever, we remain committed to our roots as an omnichannel SSP. Thousands of publishers around the globe rely on our technology to sell advertising on their terms and across every channel and format—including CTV, desktop, mobile, and audio. Likewise, we help the world’s leading agencies and brands reach millions of consumers efficiently, safely, and while respecting their privacy. The Magnite team is made up of hundreds of people across North America, EMEA, LATAM, and APAC, and our stock is traded on NASDAQ as MGNI.
