Deep programmatic expertise.
One outcome that matters — yours.

Why Valadisse

Built differently. Oriented around now.

01

AI-native from day one

Built AI-first, not retrofitted. Valadisse runs proprietary monitoring infrastructure designed from the ground up — surfacing what standard reporting misses and responding before revenue is lost.

02

The only practice built for the full programmatic stack — including audio

Most programmatic consultancies specialize narrowly and apply the same playbook regardless of how a publisher's inventory is structured. Valadisse has worked across ad formats and devices at an infrastructure level — including hands-on experience with DAI and podcast monetization systems that most vendors have never operated. If you run multiple formats, you get integrated strategy built around your actual setup, not a generic framework retrofitted to it.

03

Fixed fees. No platform affiliations. Ever.

Every recommendation is made because it's right for your yield — not because of any relationship with an SSP, DSP, or supply partner. No revenue share. No hidden incentives.

04

Pioneering expertise, not a scaled playbook

Valadisse is built differently: a boutique practice backed by evolving AI infrastructure, where every engagement is approached with fresh eyes, senior judgment, and tools that keep pace with where the ecosystem is heading. You get proactive strategy, not reactive reporting.

The programmatic landscape keeps getting more complex. Most publishers are flying blind.

Managed services from supply partners are optimized for their revenue, not yours. The gap — between what your inventory earns today and what it should earn — is where Valadisse operates.

We don't work for any platform. Every recommendation is made because it's right for your yield. Whatever stack you're running, we optimize it — across every supply relationship, with no agenda except your revenue per thousand.

Who This Is For

Built for publishers like these

US-based independent publishers with $250K–$5M+ in annual ad revenue

No dedicated internal ad ops or programmatic headcount

Running programmatic inventory — display, native, audio, or video

Not the right fit: large media conglomerates, subscription-only publishers, or publishers with a full-time VP of Programmatic already in seat.

The programmatic expertise gap

Managed services from supply partners are optimized for their revenue, not yours. The gap — between what your inventory earns today and what it should earn — is where Valadisse operates. No SSP or platform affiliation. No agenda except yours.

Real-time, not retrospective

Anomalies caught and addressed the same day — not surfaced in next month's report.

SSP-agnostic expertise

Every recommendation is made for your yield — not for any supply partner relationship.

Full-stack fluency including audio

Display, video, and audio — publishers running multiple formats get integrated strategy.

Serving US-based independent publishers · San Francisco, CA

Services

Six practices. One outcome.

Each engagement starts with a free diagnostic. From there, scope is agreed based on what we find.

01

Revenue Expansion

Find the gap. Close it.

Fill rate and CPM don't tell you whether your audience is being fully monetized — across display, audio, or video. Revenue per thousand does. That's what we optimize.

The diagnostic starts with a structured intake — then a focused review of your stack. We surface the gaps, quantify the opportunity, and agree on a scope to close it.

Who this is for: Publishers who want clarity on where revenue is going before committing to ongoing work.

Audit · Implementation
02

Yield Management & Ad Ops

Catch what your report misses.

Anomalies — a partner underdelivering, a floor misconfiguration, a timeout causing lost bids — cost money every day they go undetected. Most publishers surface them in the monthly report. We catch them the same day.

Proprietary monitoring infrastructure tracks performance signals across your stack in real time. You receive a plain-English digest of what moved, what flagged, and what was done about it — without needing to manage the process yourself.

Who this is for: Publishers with meaningful ad revenue and no dedicated programmatic headcount. This is your ad ops function, without the overhead.

Monthly retainer No revenue share
03

Publisher-Controlled Curation

You own the deals. You keep the margin.

Most curation conversations start with a third party asking for access to your inventory. Valadisse works differently: curated deal packages are built through your existing supply partnerships — you set the floors, control the audience segments, own the deal IDs, and keep the margin.

If your inventory isn't packaged as premium supply, it competes on open exchange prices you don't control. This service changes that dynamic.

Who this is for: Publishers with $1M+ in annual ad revenue who haven't built a curated deal layer yet.

Included in Growth retainer and above
04

Identity & Addressability Strategy

The gap in your reporting is costing you every month.

Filter your reporting to Safari and Firefox only. Compare that eCPM to Chrome. That gap represents inventory value lost every month to signal fragmentation — and it compounds as the ecosystem continues to shift.

This engagement covers identity solution selection, first-party data strategy, cookieless audience packaging, and implementation.

Who this is for: Publishers with $1M+ in ad revenue ready to close the addressability gap.

05

Market Intelligence

What's changing in your stack. What to do about it.

The ad technology landscape is being reshaped by AI — across bidding systems, targeting infrastructure, supply path dynamics, and competitive positioning. Staying current is a full-time job most publishers can't staff.

Valadisse monitors AI and market developments that affect your specific stack and vertical, and translates them into actionable guidance. Not a general newsletter — a briefing calibrated to what's actually changing in your business.

Who this is for: Any publisher. Available standalone or added to any engagement.

Standalone Add-on to any retainer
06

Audio & Podcast Yield

The only practice built for audio publishers.

DAI configuration, programmatic demand mix, host-read vs. programmatic balance, and revenue-per-listen optimization. Valadisse brings hands-on audio infrastructure experience that no display-first practice can match.

Who this is for: Podcast and streaming publishers whose audio inventory deserves the same level of strategic attention as their display stack.
