About the company

AppLovin runs an advertising platform that app developers, especially of mobile games, use to win users and sell ads in their apps. The platform relies heavily on its own AI software for ad selection. The former business with its own games was sold. As of Oct 11, 2026

Fact sheet (from the annual report) IT services and data processing · Palo Alto, USA

According to the company, AppLovin provides advertising solutions based on artificial intelligence that companies use to reach users and monetize their apps. Its core is Axon Ads Manager, which uses the Axon AI suggestion engine to match advertisers with publishers’ ad inventory by auction and from which revenue essentially comes. Advertisers pay according to their campaign goals instead of a fixed price per impression. Through the MAX auction platform, developers sell the ad inventory in their apps in real time. In addition, there is the Adjust measurement platform for marketing analytics and Wurl for connected TV with distribution of streaming video. In June 2025 the company divested its own apps business.
