“The comScore results are very exciting as one of our key goals is to deliver extensive, quality reach for our clients. We are extremely proud of our tremendous growth over the past six months," said Tal Hayek, Acuity's CEO. "We are also proud to be playing in the same league as multi-billion dollar companies like Google, Yahoo and Microsoft, and to have done so by growing organically.”

The comScore report highlights Acuity's growth momentum in the real-time bidding space. "We've been using the Acuity platform for over a year, so comScore's numbers are not surprising to me," said Karen Geller, Media Planning Manager at Shaw Media, "but they confirm Acuity's value proposition as an online reach tool for our brands."

"We see over 20 billion impressions every day. We see the transactions that take place in the market," says Dr. Nathan Mekuz, Acuity's CTO. "A lot of it is very inefficient. We saw lots of room for improvement and automation in the industry and so we founded Acuity with the vision of a fully automated machine learning system. Today our vision has become a reality with hundreds of international brands using our platform. "
