This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

This draft is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Wikipedia's verifiability policy requires that all content be supported by reliable sources.

Reliable sources include: reputable newspapers, magazines, academic journals, and books from respected publishers.
Unacceptable sources include: personal blogs, social media, predatory publishers, most tabloids, and websites where anyone can contribute.

Replace any unreliable sources with high-quality sources. If you cannot find a reliable source for the material, it should be removed.

AdButler is an independent ad serving platform developed by SparkLIT Networks Inc., a Canadian software company headquartered in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Founded in 1999 by Rajiv Khaneja, the platform is used by publishers, retailers, agencies, and advertising networks.

Overview

AdButler's cloud-based platform lets businesses deliver, manage, and track digital advertising campaigns from a single interface. Ad formats covered include display, video, native, email/newsletter, mobile, and digital out-of-home (DOOH). AdButler serves more than 1,200 clients worldwide, processing billions of ad impressions across its infrastructure.

SparkLIT Networks Inc operates with a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model and includes a white-label portal for businesses to brand the platform as their own. AdButler also provides a RESTful API for developers to build custom ad serving workflows and integrations. With more than 100 servers across its global network, AdButler has recorded 100% uptime since 2017. SparkLIT Networks Inc is SOC2 Type 2 certified, carbon neutral, and holds active membership in the IAB Tech Lab.^[1] AdButler's approach to self-serve advertising and direct publisher-advertiser relationships has been covered in industry trade publications including AdMonsters.^[2] AdButler's positioning against programmatic middlemen and Google lock-in has also been covered in independent trade publications.^[3]^[4]

Products and Features

AdButler's platform provides tools for campaign trafficking, audience targeting, yield optimization, real-time reporting, and programmatic advertising through header bidding and OpenRTB. The platform supports cookieless targeting and first-party data management, in response to the deprecation of third-party cookies across major browsers. Built-in compliance tools support GDPR and CCPA requirements.

In 2025, AdButler introduced compatibility with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling integration with AI-powered developer tools and agentic workflows.

In April 2026, AdButler launched Commerce Catalyst, a platform that lets organizations build and operate their own owned media networks using AdButler's ad serving infrastructure. Commerce Catalyst provides a self-service environment for advertisers and partners, a unified data layer connecting audiences, catalogs, and inventory, and open APIs for integration with existing ecommerce and data systems.^[5]

AdButler was also named to the Financial Times' The Americas' Fastest-Growing Companies list for two consecutive years — in 2025^[7] and in 2026,^[8] making AdButler one of the few Canadian technology companies to achieve this back-to-back international recognition.
