# AdBuyMCP vs DV360

DV360 is a platform for traders inside Google's stack. AdBuyMCP is a plan with a price: you choose how often your market should see you, and we balance the budget.

Display & Video 360 is Google's enterprise buying platform. It is joined to YouTube, Google's own supply and the rest of the Google stack, and through Spotify's Ad Exchange it can buy podcasts by categories such as Business. It suits teams and agencies that trade media inside Google's tools. AdBuyMCP is for a founder without a trader: you choose how often your market should see you (3, 5 or 12 times a week), the monthly price follows the size of your market, and we make your ads from your website and balance your budget across out-of-home, streaming TV, podcasts and ChatGPT ads.

## How the two compare on price, minimums and channels

The facts about DV360 are desk research, and each figure taken from a published page carries that page and the date we checked it.

Display & Video 360 and AdBuyMCP compared on how you pay, published minimum, channels, how it reaches B2B buyers, where it runs, what it reports, how you buy it

| Compared on | Display & Video 360 | AdBuyMCP |
| --- | --- | --- |
| How you pay | Not stated in the sources we cite. | £100 a month for every 1,000 people in your market, for each time a week they should see you. All-in: the media, the ads we make for each channel from your website, the planning, buying and balancing across the four channels, and your weekly report, with no fee on top. Prices are shown before VAT. |
| Published minimum | Not stated in the sources we cite. | From £3,000 a month, at 3 times a week. Plans are priced on a market of at least 10,000 people, so all four channels get enough to run. |
| Channels | Digital media across YouTube, Google's own supply and partner exchanges, including Spotify's podcasts. Source: [Spotify Advertising, Podcast ads automated buying](https://ads.spotify.com/news-and-insights/podcast-ads-automated-buying-launch), checked 20 October 2026 | Four channels in one plan: out-of-home, streaming TV, podcasts and ChatGPT ads, with the budget balanced between them by us. |
| How it reaches B2B buyers | Google's audiences and data partners, including Spotify's podcast categories such as Business. Source: [Spotify Advertising, Podcast ads automated buying](https://ads.spotify.com/news-and-insights/podcast-ads-automated-buying-launch), checked 20 October 2026 | Each channel is aimed at your market with the targeting its seller offers: places and times of day for out-of-home, business data such as company size and industry for streaming TV where the seller offers it, shows and categories for podcasts, and the topic of the conversation for ChatGPT ads. None of them targets people by job title in the UK. |
| Where it runs | Global, run by trading desks and agencies. | Plans run in the UK, and every price is in pounds. |
| What it reports | Audience, frequency and measurement tooling joined to Google Analytics. | Frequency is planned: each week we buy enough ads aimed at your market for it to see you that many times on average. Some of every channel's audience sits outside your market, and the weekly report shows what each channel delivered against the plan. |
| How you buy it | An enterprise platform, usually run by a trader or an agency. | You type your website or work email, see your plan and its price, then join the waitlist in five questions with no card. ChatGPT ads run in your own OpenAI ad account, which we set up with you. Nothing is bought until the plan, the ads and the start date are confirmed with you. No media has been bought through AdBuyMCP yet, so your campaign would be among the first. |
