One of Vserv’s core strengths has been its understanding of the mobile technology in emerging markets and has been successful in productising its services as well as catering for the needs of developers and advertisers by leveraging existing platforms as well as emerging platforms. AudiencePro and the partnership with Airtel seems to be most beneficial for the advertisers as the key deliverable of this product is more targeted advertisements.

If Vserv can increase its app inventory, which is a sizable 20000 + apps as of now, then this tool is one more weapon in Vserv’s marketing arsenal, which would result in further rapid growth an already rapidly growing company. Vserv has reportedly hired 100 people this year alone.
