Alkimi is the agentic marketplace for digital advertising. Advertisers brief campaigns in plain language. Publishers list their inventory. Their agents match, negotiate and close deals within the terms each side sets, with every step logged against one shared deal sheet: a live record that updates as agents agree terms and optimise campaigns. No reconciliation, no middlemen, because there is only one version of the deal. Humans set the rules. Agents do the work. Read more at www.alkimi.org
The industry is moving to agentic. Alkimi was built for it
before anyone knew to ask.
This channel is where we show our working. Honest breakdowns of
how ad tech actually works, what's wrong with it, and what a
fairer model looks like in practice. Industry conversations
through LabTalks. Product updates. No spin.

TV advertising used to have a paywall. Six figures minimum, booked months ahead, through an agency with a trading desk.
That gate is gone. 84% of US CTV now trades programmatically. Anyone can buy the biggest screen in the house.
The catch nobody mentions: you still can't see where your money goes once you're inside.

Everyone assumes an AI buying agent gets better with every campaign. Point it at your own records and the opposite happens.
An agent learns from the history it can see. The only history it can see is the version your systems logged, which is one side of a deal that had two sides.
Every campaign, it gets more fluent in your paperwork and no closer to what the market actually did. More experience, more conviction, same blind spot. The better it gets at your data, the more expensive its mistakes become.
A hundred campaigns in, you do not have a wiser agent. You have a very confident one, trained entirely on your own side of the story.
At Alkimi, an agent learns from a record both sides of the deal signed off, so experience makes it sharper instead of more confidently wrong.

They look so innocent, don't they? ๐ธ Meet the graduating class systematically destroying digital advertising.
Behind these faces: the $140 billion fraud problem, 90-day payment delays, and "black box" algorithms that turned programmatic into a shell game.
The uncomfortable truth: These aren't accidentsโthey're business models. Brad delays publisher payments because float generates interest. Madison calls transparency "proprietary technology" because opacity enables extraction. Trevor ignores bot traffic because it inflates revenue.
The pattern: Take a simple process (connecting advertisers with audiences), add unnecessary complexity, extract maximum fees, blame "market conditions" when performance suffers.
What they didn't count on: Blockchain infrastructure that makes their games impossible. When every transaction is permanently recorded, payment delays become theft. Smart contracts eliminate "proprietary algorithms." Built-in fraud detection stops monetising bots.
The beautiful irony? The technology they dismissed as "too risky" is about to make their business models obsolete.
Which faces do you recognise from your current ad tech stack? ๐
