Challenges
Eliminating data barriers to fuel agentic workflows
Elcano is an AdTech business specializing in AI-driven performance optimization of programmatic advertising campaigns. The firm pioneers supply-side curation through intelligent agents, including their lead agent Victoria, that automate campaign activation, management, and performance optimizations.
Granular data and agentic workflows are key to Elcano’s success. The team works with a wide range of data sources to deliver results across programmatic channels including display, online video, CTV and more.
Prior to partnering with Adverity, infrastructure redundancies hindered the team's ability to efficiently access their own data. Harmonizing these massive datasets created choke points with high-value technical resources, as the team was restricted by complex workarounds required for downstream activation.
Elcano chose Adverity as a scalable data partner to serve as the data foundation for its AI agent workflows. As the first partner to effectively e employ Adverity’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) at scale, Elcano now provides its engineers with direct access to harmonized data, enabling them to shift their focus from backend maintenance to downstream activation and agent innovation.
"Before Adverity, our teams were becoming bogged down by manual ETL processes and duplicate datastreams. We needed a solution that would empower us to move beyond infrastructure management and focus on high-impact, strategic activation that drives our business forward."

Adverity's impact
Powering intelligent activation with grounded, actionable data
With direct access to harmonized data, Elcano layers advanced AI agents on top of Adverity to automate sophisticated ad tech trading and improve forecasting accuracy.
Adverity’s MCP server eliminates the middle management layers between data warehouse and intelligent outcomes, ensuring higher quality data with less hands-on engineering maintenance. This empowers both Elcano’s teams and its agents with direct data access while ensuring its AI-driven insights remain accurate and consistent for clients.
High-impact alerts immediately flag misconfigured deals or sudden shifts in campaign spend, while agents proactively recommend optimizations based on real-time inputs such as device or domain-based signals, and even weather trigger-driven demand.
These outcomes are possible because Elcano invested in a scalable data foundation. Smart pipeline automation helped the team cut unnecessary cloud costs, eliminate redundant data infrastructure, and consolidate workflows into a single point, reducing overall infrastructure overhead by over 25%.
With Adverity MCP, every automated action is backed by a solid data foundation that is designed to deliver a competitive edge for Elcano’s clients.
