AdTechToolkit

AdTechToolkit is a focused set of practical debugging tools for ad tech professionals. The goal is simple: make common ad delivery problems easier to inspect, explain, and fix.

The live tool is the VAST Inspector — a validator and debugger for VAST tags. It checks XML structure, wrapper chains, media files, tracking URLs, and spec-backed issues. The next planned tool is an OpenRTB Inspector for bid request and response debugging.

Who these tools are built for

  • Ad ops engineers debugging a broken VAST tag before a campaign goes live
  • Publisher engineers validating ad server responses in a video integration
  • Solutions architects and solutions engineers doing client-facing tag QA
  • Programmatic teams troubleshooting delivery and measurement discrepancies
  • CTV and OTT teams working through SSAI, wrapper depth, and mezzanine requirements

The approach

The tools use deterministic, spec-backed checks first. Reports are meant to be direct, readable, and useful to engineers, solutions teams, and ad ops teams working under real delivery pressure.
