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.

Spot Runner is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Advertising, AdTech, Connected TV, and CTV.

Spot Runner’s developer surface includes authentication and 8 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/spot-runner: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  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.
