Flite became one of the first companies to integrate with Atlas via a direct application-programming interface, and Atlas advertisers will now have access to Flite Design Studio and its Web-based design tools for building HTML5 and Flash ads for desktop and mobile. The two companies said the integration will provide advertisers with: Seamless integration between Flite Design Studio and Atlas' ad server and analytics.

Price said in a release announcing the integration: We’re excited to bring Flite’s creative studio to Atlas’ robust trafficking and analytics platform for advertisers.
