Targetable launched in November of last year and since then has been on an enviable trajectory. Targetable’s intuitive UI turns a set of cumbersome tasks requiring complex expertise into a simple and swift process. Ads are generated by the system automatically and presented to the customer for editing, approval, and feedback. The system creates both the ad itself as well as the media strategy detailing who to target, when to run ads, and how much to spend.
