Veylan, the AI-native operating system for modern advertising, has acquired Advisr, a sales platform widely used by media organizations. The move combines Advisr’s expertise in local media sales with Veylan’s intelligent infrastructure, aiming to transform workflows, boost revenue, and scale operations across the media sales ecosystem.
The acquisition positions Veylan as a go-to platform for local media sales, enabling sellers to focus on strategy, relationships, and client outcomes instead of manual tasks. By integrating AI at the core of operations, the platform promises faster, more efficient execution—on par with the agility of the world’s largest advertisers.
Driving Local Media Forward
According to Anthony Iacovone, Veylan Co-Founder & CEO, the merger “will be a catalyst for change across the local media landscape,” replacing inefficiencies with automation and accelerating revenue growth for media companies.
Quique Nagle, Advisr founder and now Veylan COO, highlighted how AI will unify media sales processes. “With Veylan, we’re connecting planning, proposals, creative, media, and execution into one intelligent system. It’s the future our customers are stepping into, today,” he said.
Advisr has a footprint of over 7,000 sales professionals, and this acquisition leverages that foundation to expand Veylan’s reach. By streamlining fragmented workflows into a single AI-powered operating system, media companies can now operate with the speed, precision, and scale traditionally reserved for digital giants.
Why This Matters
The deal underscores a broader industry trend: AI-driven automation is no longer optional in advertising—it’s essential. Local media sellers often struggle with disparate systems and manual processes, and Veylan’s unified platform promises measurable gains in efficiency, client engagement, and revenue. The acquisition also signals the growing consolidation of AI-powered tools designed to level the playing field for smaller media operations against global digital advertisers.
For media companies, Veylan’s move could redefine how local teams compete, offering a faster, smarter approach to selling and executing campaigns with precision and scale.
