Company Profiles

Each company in ATDb has a detailed profile page showing everything we know about that business. Profiles are organized into tabbed sections for easy navigation.

The top of every company profile shows:

  • Logo — sourced automatically when available
  • Name and tagline — the company's value proposition
  • Tier badge — S-tier through D-tier rating indicating market significance. See How tiers work.
  • Type label — what kind of company it is, such as Agency or Brand. See How we classify companies.
  • Verification seal — a small chip such as Verified · N sources or Corroborated · N sources, shown when the profile has enough sourcing. See Verification.
  • Operational status — Acquired, Subsidiary, Merged, Rebranded, or Defunct (Active companies show no badge)
  • Pending Acquisition badge (if applicable) — amber chip indicating an acquisition has been announced but has not yet closed. Click to see the announced date, expected close date, deal value, and the counterparty entity. Target-side reads Pending: → {Acquirer}; acquirer-side reads Pending: → {Target} (and lists multiple if multiple deals are open).
  • Key facts — Founded, HQ, parent company, and total connections. A small marker next to a fact shows how well it is sourced; click it for the sources.
  • Action buttons — Brief (the company's Sales Brief, described below), Watchlist (heart), Ask ATDb about this, and a ... menu with Compare with..., sharing, Suggest an edit, Report, and Flag status change (availability depends on your account status)

At a glance

Below the header, an At a glance panel summarizes the company: a short positioning line, key facts (employees, funding, revenue, stock symbol), counts of its connections by type, and its category badges. The panel also has the Accurate? vote and a Report a key fact button.

Tabs

Tabs appear only when there is something to show.

At the bottom of the page, the corporate history and a list of connections stay visible without opening a tab.

Sales Brief

The Brief button opens /companies/[slug]/brief, a one-page summary built for sales conversations: where the company sits, ownership, competitors, recent moves, leadership moves, partnerships, and key people. Use Copy link to share it or Print to save a copy.

Company Details

Company profiles include structured detail fields that make comparison and research easier.

Business Details

  • Industry — the company's primary industry
  • Business Model — how the company generates revenue (SaaS, marketplace, etc.)
  • Target Market — who the company sells to (enterprise, SMB, agencies, etc.)
  • Employees — approximate headcount
  • Founded — when the company was established

Financial

  • Funding — total capital raised
  • Revenue — approximate annual revenue bracket
  • Stock — ticker if publicly traded

Technical

  • API availability — whether the company offers a public API
  • Parent — if the company is a subsidiary

Fields appear only when we have a value for them. Spot a wrong or missing value? See Editing & Contributing.

Operational Status

Companies can have one of six operational statuses (Active companies show no badge on the profile):

StatusMeaning
ActiveCurrently operating
AcquiredPurchased by another company
SubsidiaryOperating as a division of a parent company
MergedCombined with another company
RebrandedChanged name/identity
DefunctNo longer operating

Flagging a Status Change

If you notice a company's status is wrong (e.g., a company has been acquired but is still listed as Active), you can flag it:

  1. Open the ... menu on the company profile and choose Flag status change
  2. Select the new status from the dropdown
  3. Add optional context explaining the change
  4. Submit — your flag goes to admin review

This is especially valuable for keeping the database current. Status changes trigger fresh AI research to update the company's description and details to reflect its new state.

Categories

Categories represent the AdTech industry taxonomy. Each company can belong to one or more categories describing the segments it operates in.

Browsing by Category

  • Visit /categories to see all categories with company counts
  • Click a category to see all companies in that segment

Category Examples

Categories cover the full AdTech spectrum: DSPs, SSPs, ad servers, data management platforms, attribution providers, retail media networks, CTV/OTT platforms, and many more.

Relationships

Companies are connected to other entities through typed relationships that power the ecosystem graph.

Relationship Types

  • Competitors — companies competing in the same space
  • Partners — companies with formal partnerships or integrations
  • Subsidiaries — parent-child company structures
  • Acquisitions — companies that have acquired or been acquired by others
  • Integrations — companies whose products integrate with each other

  • The Competitors tab shows companies identified as competitors
  • The People tab shows associated personnel
  • The Integrations tab shows integration partners
  • The Activity tab shows M&A, funding, and other deals involving the company
