Agentio Raises $4.25 Million to Help Creators Sell Ads for Themselves
One company that’s surely rooting for YouTube to stay ad-friendly is Agentio, which just raised a $4.25 million seed fund for its platform to let digital creators sell ads within their creations on YouTube and elsewhere. The system gives media buyers a convenient interface to find suitable creators, place ads, and report results. So far the ad placements are made one creator at a time, although a programmatic approach can’t be too far behind.
