MolocoThe Singular 2026 ROI Index showcases Moloco as a top partner outside walled gardens
The 2026 Singular ROI Index is out, and Moloco is honored to appear on 29 leaderboards, placing fifth overall for leaderboard appearances. As Susan Kuo (COO & Co-founder) stated, Moloco's year-over-year consistency demonstrates profitable growth beyond walled gardens. The index is based on trillions of impressions, billions of clicks, and billions of installs, ensuring that each platform earned its place.
Moloco appears on every global leaderboard and all four regional leaderboards (APAC, EMEA, North America, South America), showcasing global performance across verticals and operating systems. Additionally, Singular introduced new multi-touch attribution (MTA) leaderboards, and Moloco features in both: Assist Power (measuring platform presence in conversion paths without last-touch credit) and MTA Uplift (measuring increased contribution under MTA). This indicates Moloco drives value earlier in the customer journey.
For advertisers already running major channels like Google and Meta, Moloco offers a path to profitable growth through the independent app ecosystem, helping them expand beyond traditional platforms.

MolocoIs your channel mix resilient in an AI-disrupted world?
AI is reshaping consumer behavior, with 80% of Google searches ending without a click and half of consumers using AI for product research. This disrupts traditional channels like search (CPC up 10-25%) and affiliate marketing (revenues down 7%). Meanwhile, mobile apps and CTV offer stable, high-engagement alternatives. Advertisers should diversify away from disrupted channels, targeting the independent app ecosystem where Day 30 ROAS can be 116% higher. Key metrics: organic direct traffic share (target >51%) and disrupted channel spend share (target <34%).
AppsFlyerMobile Measurement Set the Standard. Web Is Finally Catching Up.
Mobile performance marketing succeeded by building a signal infrastructure—independent attribution, fraud protection, and structured postbacks—that fed optimization-grade data to ad platforms. Web measurement has lagged, relying on fragmented, platform-reported metrics. As AI-driven campaign optimization becomes standard, bad signals amplify errors. AppsFlyer’s Web Performance Measurement brings mobile-grade signals to web: independent attribution, server-to-server postbacks, cross-platform closed loops, and unified cost/revenue measurement. For ad ops decision-makers, this means one truth source, actionable optimization signals across networks, and complete omnichannel ROAS visibility—enabling AI to compound advantage, not error.
AppsFlyerIndependent Data Collaboration Platforms Are Gone — Except One
Data collaboration platforms are consolidating under ad-centric owners, threatening measurement neutrality. Publicis bought LiveRamp, WPP acquired InfoSum, and LiveRamp absorbed Habu, leaving AppsFlyer as the only major independent player. Brands must vet partners for conflicts: does the platform or its parent benefit from ad spend? Without independence, budget allocation and ROAS calculations may reflect agency incentives over actual performance. Key questions: revenue from ads, cross-channel attribution consistency, data governance, and auditable methodology.
