What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Early, pilot-stage, single-vendor announcement riding on competing un-converged protocols (AdCP/AAMP/A2A); real activity is in the standards bodies, not yet in BidMachine's exchange — not actionable for us now
Next
Monitor the AdCP-vs-IAB standards convergence and BidMachine's Q3 2026 GA; revisit only if a buyer-agent protocol converges and BidMachine publishes pilot results
