The company helps brands place their ads strategically within various media forms, whether on a desktop, a connected television device, a podcast, or a mobile app. It generates revenue by taking a spread on the advertising slots that it purchases on behalf of brands that use The Trade Desk's platform. For example, if it buys ad space from a media company for $0.85, and then charges the advertiser $1.00, it keeps $0.15 in profit.
