Dynamic Pricing from @cloudx has moved into GA. Mispriced inventory is waste, there's no excuse for it in the age of AI. Setting the right floor on every auction requires a system that keeps up with market swings, knows your inventory, and gets better over time. This is a platform feature in 2026. Stellar work from @peterldowns @kainarkamal @sanjazakovska

Last week we launched Tasks in @Cloudx . Here's one thing I really like that you might have missed - smart notifications. You tell the agent when it's actually worth pinging you, in plain words. "Only if US revenue drops more than 10%," "ping me if fill on any network falls below 40%," etc. It keeps checking on schedule and stays quiet unless that happens.

Today we are expanding the @CloudX mission and adding agentic buying to the platform. Now you can buy inventory from other publishers and grow your user base, in addition to monetizing it, with intelligent agents that do all of the work.

A pleasure joining @BrabergFelix to discuss our progress at @cloudx, including his experience as a user
Thank you @BrabergFelix for having @sackdan on for an entertaining and informative conversation. Since Felix last spoke with CloudX in Q4, he has become a user through one of his clients. Publishers running CloudX as a first look or in a parallel auction are seeing consistent 10 to 20% revenue lifts.

Multi-round auctioning gives publishers the benefits of unified bidding, but with substantially more flexibility and control. Equally important, it realigns incentives and helps to move the industry away from a race to the bottom in ad quality.
Most monetization platforms are designed to facilitate a single auction per impression opportunity. This simplicity comes at a cost. For one, a race to the bottom in ad quality and a subsequent hit to publisher retention. With CloudX, publishers are able to set up multiple auction rounds per impression opportunity, controlling who competes in each round and under what terms, while still preserving a highest bid wins dynamic within each round. For publishers, this enables increased pricing power and the ability to work more flexibly with demand partners.

I previously stated that 2026 would be the year of the publisher. I also believe it’s the year multi-platform setups become the norm across all of mobile. At @cloudx, we’re seeing it play out, but the terms used to describe the various setups are all over the place. So, here is a guide.
CloudX is a complete AI-powered monetization platform. It can be used as a standalone solution, or in concert with existing ad infrastructure. Multi-platform setups are standard across digital advertising. Mobile gaming is catching up. The terms used to describe these setups aren't always applied consistently.

Every tech wave eventually faces the same question: who pays for it? AI is hitting that moment now. Every major computing wave brings its own foundational models, infrastructure, apps, and monetization layers. We saw it with the web, mobile, cloud, and crypto—and now it’s unfolding in AI. As VC subsidies taper, the need for sustainable monetization will only intensify. Consumers won’t want to shoulder the full cost of AI subscriptions, creating an opening for new advertising models and revenue opportunities. At @EniacVC, we’ve been backing these “picks and shovels” for over two decades- including Admob, Tap, Vungle, Attentive, Evertune, Upscale- and we’re more bullish than ever in the AI era. So today, we are very proud to finally announce the launch of Eniac seeded CloudX founded by adtech legend and pioneer @jimpayne, with $30m raised to get after possibly the biggest monetization opportunity of all, in AI.

I’ll say it and trigger the haters: Israelis are extraordinary. From pilots and soldiers to intel officers and the moms, dads, sisters, and brothers behind them — the courage, creativity, and grit are nothing short of breathtaking.
