Our story

Index Exchange was born out of a need for an advertising marketplace that was fair and balanced. We recognized an opportunity to create an exchange that delivers more efficiency, more transparency, and more value to media owners and buyers alike.

Index is no stranger to change and adaptation. In the two decades since we built the company, we’ve pioneered header bidding, introduced entirely new data standards, and created new opportunities for addressability in programmatic campaigns. Today, we’re bringing the same efficiency and scale that we’ve long been known for to new formats and channels like connected TV, mobile, native, and more.

As we continue on our mission to accelerate the evolution of ad technology, we are dedicated to building a safe and transparent marketplace that provides a trusted experience for consumers.
