Reddit joins Smartly’s growing ecosystem of supported platforms, spanning CTV, Social Media, and the Open Web, enabling advertisers to launch and optimize campaigns across today’s most influential digital environments. This integration marks another step in Smartly’s mission to unify media and creative into a single, intelligent workflow turning complexity into clarity and potential into performance.

“By integrating Reddit into the Smartly platform, we’re helping brands engage Reddit’s community with the right creative, at the right moment, with the speed and agility needed to match the pace of their conversation,” said Laura Desmond, CEO of Smartly. “Our focus is to seamlessly combine message authenticity, brand awareness and performance to help power business growth.”
