Market Position

A top-tier independent ML-powered DSP and commerce media platform, competing with major ad tech players in mobile UA, retail media, and streaming monetization

Overview

Moloco is a leading machine learning and programmatic advertising company founded in 2013, headquartered in Redwood City, California. The company leverages proprietary ML technology to deliver performance-driven advertising solutions across mobile user acquisition, retargeting, and monetization. Moloco's core platform, the Moloco Cloud DSP, enables mobile app developers and digital businesses to acquire high-value users at scale by optimizing in real time across billions of ad auctions using first-party data signals. Moloco has expanded beyond mobile app marketing into commerce media and streaming, offering solutions for retail media networks and connected TV (CTV) advertisers. Its Retail Media Platform allows e-commerce marketplaces and retailers to build and operate their own advertising businesses, while its Streaming Monetization product helps OTT and streaming platforms maximize ad revenue. This diversification positions Moloco as a full-stack ML advertising infrastructure provider rather than just a mobile DSP. The company has achieved significant scale, reportedly processing over 1 trillion ad requests per month and operating across major global markets including North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe. Moloco is backed by prominent investors including Tiger Global Management and has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies in AdTech. Its emphasis on privacy-safe, ML-driven optimization without reliance on third-party cookies or device identifiers gives it a strong competitive position in the post-IDFA and cookieless advertising landscape.
