Companies that use Lotame

My analysis shows that Lotame buyers are primarily concentrated in programmatic and data strategy roles (18% Programmatic Account Managers/Directors, 12% Data Solutions Managers/Analysts, 8% Audience Managers). These leaders sit at the intersection of media buying, data activation, and customer intelligence. They're building sophisticated audience strategies to combat data privacy changes and find alternatives to walled gardens. Sales Directors and Partnership Managers are also key buyers, particularly those focused on expanding programmatic offerings and data monetization capabilities.

The day-to-day users are heavily concentrated in ad operations and campaign management (15%), with hands-on practitioners trafficking campaigns, building audience segments, managing DMPs, and executing programmatic deals. These teams use Lotame to onboard first-party and third-party data, create targetable segments across DSPs like The Trade Desk and DV360, and activate audiences for both direct-sold and programmatic campaigns. Product Managers and technical specialists configure integrations, manage data partnerships, and ensure smooth data flow between platforms.

The recurring pain points center on finding cookieless solutions and maximizing ROI in a privacy-first world. Companies want to be "a flexible, scalable and cost-effective antidote to walled gardens," leverage "cutting-edge tools, data science, and AI to innovate and optimize," and build "data-driven marketing platform" capabilities that "identify and understand audiences" without relying on personal data. The emphasis on "identity resolution," "audience enrichment," and "data collaboration solutions" reveals organizations racing to future-proof their advertising capabilities.

I noticed something striking about companies using Lotame: they're almost exclusively digital publishers and media companies with sophisticated advertising operations. The presence of Criteo, Pubmatic, and Liveramp together tells me these are businesses that monetize through programmatic advertising and need robust audience data management to maximize ad revenue.

The pairing with Pubmatic is particularly revealing. It's a supply-side platform that appears nearly 1500 times more often among Lotame users, which means these companies are selling their ad inventory programmatically and using Lotame to enhance their audience segments for better yield. Liveramp's strong correlation reinforces this, since it enables identity resolution across platforms, letting publishers create more valuable, targetable audience packages. The presence of Parsely and Chartbeat, both content analytics tools, shows these companies obsess over engagement metrics because time on site and page views directly impact their ad revenue potential.

Looking at the full stack, these are clearly marketing-led organizations where the revenue team focuses on selling premium audience segments to advertisers. They're likely mid-stage to mature companies with dedicated ad operations teams. Publishers using this combination aren't relying on simple banner ads anymore. They're running sophisticated data operations that turn raw traffic into monetizable audience insights. The Marfeel correlation, a publishing optimization tool, confirms they're constantly refining their content strategy to build larger, more engaged audiences they can segment and sell.

I analyzed these companies and found that Lotame's typical customer is a content-driven media organization. These are primarily publishers, news outlets, and entertainment platforms that produce and distribute content to audiences. They include newspapers like the Chicago Sun-Times and Savannah Morning News, digital media brands like The Daily Wire and Betches Media, broadcasters, magazines, and specialty publishers. What they actually sell is audience attention to advertisers, which makes sense for a data management platform.

These are predominantly mature, established enterprises. Many newspapers like The Gainesville Sun and Burlington County Times have operated for 50 to 150 years. The employee counts cluster heavily in the 50 to 500 range, with most showing no recent funding rounds, which signals profitability or private ownership rather than venture-backed growth. A few newer digital media companies like The Daily Upside show smaller teams, but even these describe substantial reach (over 1 million subscribers). The consistent emphasis on legacy, awards, and market leadership tells me these are established players, not startups.
