Their work with Mucho Burrito’s “Love Mucho” campaign nearly doubled incremental search lift compared to standard programmatic targeting methods. Named one of Ad Age’s Best Places to Work, Hotspex Media maintains over 100% year-over-year revenue growth while maintaining a completely in-house development structure that prohibits outsourcing campaign activation.

These tools are enhanced by RemyAI, which applies natural language processing to campaign data.

With a 99% year-over-year client retention rate, Digital Remedy provides brands and agencies with access to premium multi-DSP CTV and YouTube TV inventory without high spend minimums.

Founded in 2009, Criterion Global operates a lean, centralized operational model that manages international campaigns across 50 markets and 4 regions, covering approximately 95% of worldwide media spend. Unlike traditional holding-company models that rely on decentralized local office participation, Criterion Global utilizes specialist partners through offices in Miami (LATAM), Singapore (APAC), Tokyo, Zurich, and London.

Their “challenger discipline” approach is designed for mid-market, private equity-backed, and enterprise brands expanding into international markets where they lack local historical dominance. They also act as white-label programmatic buying partners for creative and brand agencies, allowing them to offer international media capabilities without building in-house teams.

In March 2024, they announced a strategic partnership with DoubleVerify to integrate advanced attention and brand suitability metrics directly into YouTube campaign reporting, while expanding capabilities to Meta’s In-Stream video and Reels inventory. By analyzing video-level context rather than broad behavioral categories, Channel Factory protects brands from the “low-CPM fallacy” where low-cost placements expose campaigns to high invalid traffic rates.
