Premium inventory classification

Defining "premium" with a clear set of criteria.

A wholistic definition of "premium" has long eluded the programmatic industry — and simply excluding made-for-advertising properties is no longer enough. Elcano has trained our AI model to categorize web properties on a clear set of criteria.

Premium

The "best of the best" available programmatically — trusted publishers, major media networks, and highly respected, recognizable independent brands.

  • High editorial standards.
  • Reputable content.
  • Large, loyal audiences.
Standard

Web properties that are acceptable in programmatic, but not considered elite. Functional but unremarkable.

  • Well-constructed content with legitimate purpose.
  • Less editorial oversight, which can include user-generated content.
  • Niche blogs, smaller publications.
Low Quality

Suspicious web properties that are primarily built for monetization — compromised user experience or excessively outdated design.

  • Excessive ad density.
  • Clickbait headlines, recycled or AI-generated articles.
  • Multiple pop-ups or redirect behavior.
Deployable curation technology

An agent with experts in the loop.

Human-in-the-loop optimization

Victoria is guided by expert supply-side traders who supervise, validate, and implement decisioning.

Elcano Lens targeting

Victoria is enabled with Elcano Lens — our proprietary solution designed to define and isolate premium, contextually-focused inventory.

24/7 deal monitoring

Victoria leverages API data feeds to monitor deals around the clock and triggers automated notifications when required.

Proven in production, not in a pitch.
