Spot Runner

Spot Runner is an AI-driven advertising technology company (backed by Battery Ventures) focused on contextual media planning for Connected TV (CTV) and online video. Its platform uses proprietary MicroModeling AI through tools such as ContextPlanner and ContextDeals to match advertiser creative to the most relevant, brand-suitable premium video ad opportunities across leading streaming networks, publishers, and TV OEMs, and to send Deal IDs directly to a buyer's DSP seat. Spot Runner also markets an "Agentic Agency" of multi-agent creative tooling for SMBs and DTC brands. The public surface is a marketing site plus an advertiser login portal; there is no published developer API, OpenAPI, or SDK. The site does expose a hosted Wix Site MCP endpoint for agentic AI access, advertised via its /llms.txt.

  detail: Spot Runner's entire public site is four Wix pages (home, terms, privacy, accessibility) with no developer portal,
    docs, spec or SDK anywhere; the advertiser portal's real backend at api.spotrunner.com/v1 is live (/health returns 200)
    but is the SaaS product's own private API, published nowhere, and the only public machine-readable surface is the Wix
    platform's Site MCP endpoint.
