About Us

BidOn ushers in a new dawn for ad tech, empowering publishers with open source tools for full monetization control, transparency and direct ecosystem connections for supply and demand, including UA. As a nonprofit driven by our community, all support is reinvested into development and education. Our dedicated in-house dev team delivers hands-on evolution and support, whilst our board ensures publisher-first decisions and seamless ecosystem balance.    

 

We’re building a collaborative, open source infrastructure where publishers, DSPs and vendors create together to work towards freedom from mediation control and gatekeeping.
