Outbrain agency · since 2015

The Outbrain agency — now the Teads team. Same Smartlogic. Same operators.

Outbrain finalized its merger with Teads in June 2025. The platform, the inventory and the algorithm are unchanged — we've moved $20M+ across what's now the combined Teads network since 2015. Read the playbook here or jump straight to the new Teads agency page.

01 — Why us on Outbrain

Four reasons operators pick us as their Outbrain agency.

  • 01

    We know Smartlogic from the inside out.

    Outbrain's Smartlogic algorithm rewards specific creative patterns and bid behaviors. We've reverse-engineered what triggers it after $20M+ of campaign data — and we won't ship a creative that fights it.

  • 02

    Onyx access — premium publishers only.

    Direct partnership unlocks Onyx, Outbrain's premium publisher network (CNN, USA Today, Le Monde, Bild). Self-serve doesn't get there — but our clients do.

  • 03

    Engage You audiences pre-built.

    We've built Engage You audience segments per vertical from $20M+ of conversion data. Your campaign starts targeting proven audiences from day one, not learning from scratch.

  • 04

    Compliance-cleared per Outbrain policy.

    Outbrain's content guidelines are stricter than Taboola's in some categories. We know what gets approved on first submission and what triggers manual review.

    From €790k at 11% profit to €5.3M at 22% — in 90 days.

    The Meta auction had tightened past the point where margin held.

    They were already a healthy 8-figure operator on Meta. We layered native (Taboola + Outbrain) on top — not as a replacement, as a parallel buy. Total sales jumped from €2,380,565 to €2,625,046 in the first 30 days. Store conversion climbed from 6.17% to 6.78% (+10%) because the native-warmed traffic landed with intent already built.
