Shares of Digital Turbine, Inc. (APPS) rose on Wednesday after the mobile advertising platform announced a strategic partnership with Databricks to roll out its data and AI strategy.
The company stated that this integration will bring Databricks Genie Spaces, an AI agent that lets users interact with data in natural language, and Databricks Apps, a serverless platform for building AI applications within the Databricks ecosystem, into Digital Turbine's existing technology stack.
The integration with Databricks will connect signals from more than 80,000 apps and over a billion devices to drive real-time intelligence and deliver outcomes across the AI-first marketplace, the company noted.
"Integrating Databricks solutions into our technology stack enables the unification of our data architecture and accelerates our ability to deploy next-generation AI," said Ben John, Chief Technology Officer at Digital Turbine.
Digital Turbine stated that its core data assets are Ignite Graph, which maps real-time device interactions for predictive modeling, and DT iQ, which combines data for smarter ad targeting.
The company noted that its first-party data and global on-device distribution create a unique scaling opportunity, and that collaboration with Databricks is a critical enabler, enabling it to turn billions of real-time behavioral signals into automated decisions.
By using Genie Spaces to encode business-specific logic, Digital Turbine stated that it can streamline collaboration across device- and app-level data and ensure that natural language questions resolve into correct queries for faster, actionable results.
"Digital Turbine is a great example of what enterprise AI can deliver when it is built on trusted, governed data at scale," said Tony LaVasseur, RVP Media & Advertising at Databricks.
LaVasseur added that Genie will make it easier for Data Turbine’s teams to get trustworthy answers from their data, while Databricks apps convert those data insights into production-ready AI apps.
