An advertiser-side partner for programmatic media.

Protecxo plans, buys and optimises digital advertising for brands, agencies and performance marketers. We combine media strategy with hands-on programmatic execution, so the people who design your plan are the same people accountable for how it runs.

Every engagement starts with a brief and ends with a clear account of what happened. In between, we choose the channels, inventory and audiences most likely to reach the right people at a sensible cost, and we keep adjusting as the data comes in.

Three ways to buy programmatically. We choose per campaign.

Programmatic advertising buys impressions automatically, one at a time or through agreed deals. The method decides what you can control — and what you pay for that control.

What happens in the auction

For real-time buying, the whole sequence typically completes in a fraction of a second, before the page has finished loading.

  1. Bid requestA page or app loads and the ad slot is offered with context about the placement.
  2. EvaluationThe buying platform checks the impression against your targeting, supply rules and budget.
  3. BidIf it fits, a bid is placed at a price set by your strategy.
  4. Ad servedThe winning ad is delivered to the page and the impression is measured.

Display, native and video, each with a job to do.

Formats are chosen for the role they play in the plan, not because they are available. Here is what each one is for.

Every targeting layer is a trade between reach and precision.

Good audience strategy picks the layers that suit the objective, and leaves out the ones that only add cost. Try combining a few.

Why advertisers work with Protecxo.

We work for the buyer.

Protecxo sits on the advertiser's side of the market. Our recommendations are judged by one test: are they good for your campaign?

Measurement comes first.

Before a single impression is bought, we agree what success looks like, how it will be measured and what we'll compare it against.

You see where your money goes.

Plans state the reasoning behind every allocation. Reports show what ran, where it ran and what changed along the way.

Brand safety is set up, not bolted on.

Supply rules, exclusions and verification are part of the launch checklist, agreed with you before spend begins.

Technology chosen for the campaign, not the other way round.

We are not tied to a single platform. Each plan names the tools it uses and why they suit your channels, markets and data.
