Mediavine, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 2004 and employs approximately 250 individuals. The company operates in the Technology, Information, and Internet sectors, providing full-service ad management and monetisation solutions for content creators.
On April 22, 2026, Mediavine launched its curated audiences in Index Marketplaces, expanding its partnership with Index Exchange. Index Exchange serves as the inaugural supply-side platform (SSP) for this initiative, connecting media owners and buyers to premium inventory at scale. This follows CEO Eric Hochberger's announcement on April 1, via a LinkedIn post, of layoffs at the full-service advertising management platform. Hochberger cited the rapidly evolving landscape for creators and publishers as the reason for the decision. Mediavine currently powers more than 18,000 independent publishers.
