“When Twitter approached us and asked if we d be interested in working on their monetization platform, we realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we just couldn t pass up,” writes AdGrok founder Matthew McEachen. “The fact that the Twitter team is both smart and user-focused only made our decision easier.”
