Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of Operations | 1. Nature of Operations Viant for the purpose of facilitating an Initial Public Offering and other related transactions. On February 9, 2021, the Company’s Form S-1 was declared effective by the SEC related to the IPO of its Class A common stock. The closing date of the IPO was February 12, 2021, and in connection with the closing and the corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization Transactions”), the following actions were taken: • • The limited liability company agreement of Viant Technology LLC was amended and restated (as amended and restated, the “Viant Technology LLC Agreement”) to, among other things, provide for Class A units and Class B units and appoint the Company as the sole managing member of Viant Technology LLC; • The Viant Technology LLC Agreement classifies the interests acquired by the Company as Class A units, reclassified the interests held by the continuing members of Viant Technology LLC as Class B units, and permits the continuing members of Viant Technology LLC to exchange Class B units for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis or, at the election of Viant Technology Inc., for cash at the current fair value on the date of the exchange . Immediately following such reclassification, the continuing members held 48,935,559 Class B units. For each membership unit of Viant Technology LLC that is reclassified as a Class B unit, the Company issued one corresponding share of our Class B common stock to the continuing members, or 48,935,559 shares of Class B common stock in total; • The Company issued and sold 10,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock to the underwriters at an initial public offering price of $25.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $250.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $17.5 million; • The Company used the net proceeds of $232.5 million to acquire 10,000,000 newly issued Class A units of Viant Technology LLC at a per-unit price equal to the per-share price paid by the underwriters for shares of our Class A common stock; • The underwriters exercised their option to purchase 1,500,000 additional shares of Class A common stock from the selling stockholders. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders. Pursuant to such exercise, the selling stockholders exchanged the corresponding number of Class B units for the shares of Class A common stock, the corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock were automatically retired, and 1,500,000 Class A units were issued to the Company; • The Class B stockholders and Class A stockholders initially had 80.5% and 19.5%, respectively, of the combined voting power of the Company’s common stock. The Class A common stock outstanding will represent 100% of the rights of the holders of all classes of the Company’s outstanding common stock to share in distributions from the Company, except for the right of Class B stockholders to receive the par value of the Class B common stock upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up or an exchange of Class B units. • • Immediately following the closing of the IPO, Viant Technology LLC is the predecessor of the Company for financial reporting purposes. The Company is a holding company, and its sole material asset is its equity interest in Viant Technology LLC. As the sole managing member of Viant Technology LLC, the Company operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Viant Technology LLC. The Reorganization Transaction s are accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company recognize the assets and liabilities received in the Reorganization Transactions at their historical carrying amounts, as reflected in the historical consolidated financial statements of Viant Technology LLC. The Company will consolidate Viant Technology LLC on its condensed consolidated financial statements and record a noncontrolling interest related to the Class B units held by the Class B stockholders on its condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations. |

Basis Of Presentation And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements for interim financial information which are unaudited Viant Technology LLC is considered a variable interest entity, or VIE. The Company is the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of Viant Technology LLC and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity. As a result, the Company consolidates Viant Technology LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation Viant Technology LLC has been determined to be the predecessor for accounting purposes and, accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the IPO and the related organizational transactions have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation purposes. Amounts for the period from January 1, 2020 through February 11, 2021 presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements herein represent the historical operations of Viant Technology LLC. The amounts as of June 30, 2021 and for the period from February 12, 2021 reflect the consolidated operations of the Company. Management believes that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair statement of its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021, or for any other future annual or interim period. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, primarily those related to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, income taxes, allowances for doubtful accounts, the useful lives of capitalized software development costs and other property, equipment and software, assumptions used in the impairment analyses of long-lived assets and goodwill, deferred revenue and accrued liabilities. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. As of June 30, 2021, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to evolve. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions consider macro-economic factors in the market, which require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in future periods. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and debt. The carrying amounts of the Company’s current financial assets and current financial liabilities are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation relates to equity awards granted under the Company’s 2021 LTIP, which is measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the equity awards granted. Since inception of the 2021 LTIP, the Company has only granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and nonqualified stock options. The fair value of RSUs is calculated using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of non-qualified stock options is estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The Black Scholes option pricing model is impacted by the fair value of the Company’s common stock, as well as changes in certain assumptions, including but not limited to, the expected common stock price volatility over the term of the nonqualified stock options, the expected term of the nonqualified stock options, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected dividend yield. A portion of RSUs granted as of June 30, 2021 to certain employees and board members, pursuant to the 2021 LTIP, will vest upon expiration of the 180 day IPO lock-up period and the remainder of RSUs and nonqualified stock options will vest through the applicable vesting dates, subject to continued employment for employee grants. RSUs awarded to board members will vest quarterly and annually through the applicable vesting dates. Comprehensive Income (Loss) For the periods presented, net income (loss) is equal to comprehensive income (loss). Noncontrolling Interests The noncontrolling interests represent the economic interests of Viant Technology LLC held by Class B common stockholders. Income or loss is attributed to the noncontrolling interests based on the weighted average LLC interests outstanding during the period. The noncontrolling interests’ ownership percentage can fluctuate over time as the Class B common stockholders elect to exchange their shares of Class B common stock for Class A common stock. Earnings (Loss) Basic number of The Company’s RSUs, nonqualified stock options and shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share of RSUs, nonqualified stock options and Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been presented. Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Unit Basic earnings (loss) per unit is calculated by dividing the earnings (loss) attributable to common unitholders by the number of weighted-average common units outstanding. The Company applies the two-class method to allocate earnings between common and convertible preferred units. Diluted earnings (loss) per unit adjusts the basic earnings (loss) per unit attributable to common unitholders and the weighted-average number of units of common units outstanding for the potential dilutive impact of common units, using the treasury-stock method, and convertible preferred units using the if-converted method. Diluted earnings (loss) per unit considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common units would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Income The Company is the managing member of Viant Technology LLC and, as a result, consolidates the financial results of Viant Technology LLC in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Viant Technology LLC is a pass-through entity for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes following a corporate reorganization effected in connection with our initial public offering. As an entity classified as a partnership for tax purposes, Viant Technology LLC is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by Viant Technology LLC is passed through to, and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including us. The Company is taxed as a corporation and pays corporate federal, state and local taxes with respect to income allocated from Viant Technology LLC, based on Viant Technology Inc.'s 19.5% economic interest in Viant Technology LLC. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities (“DTAs” and “DTLs”) for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine DTAs and DTLs on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on DTAs and DTLs is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We recognize DTAs to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our DTAs in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the DTA valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. Tax Receivable Agreement The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of tax basis in the net assets of Viant Technology LLC when Class B units are exchanged by the holders of Class B units for shares of Class A common stock of the Company and upon other qualifying transactions. Each change in outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Company results in a corresponding increase or decrease in the Company's ownership of Class A units of Viant Technology LLC. The Company intends to treat any exchanges of Class B units as direct purchases of LLC interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that Viant Technology Inc. would otherwise pay in the future to various taxing authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with Viant Technology LLC and the holders of Class B units of Viant Technology LLC (the “Members”). In the event that such parties exchange any or all of their Class B units for Class A common stock, the TRA requires the Company to make payments to such holders for 85% of the tax benefits realized, or in some cases deemed to be realized, by the Company by such exchange as a result of (i) increases in the Company’s tax basis of its ownership interest in the net assets of Viant Technology LLC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of noncontrolling interest, (ii) tax basis increases attributable to payments made under the TRA, and (iii) deductions attributable to imputed interest pursuant to the TRA (the “TRA Payments”). The annual tax benefits are computed by calculating the income taxes due, including such tax benefits, and the income taxes due without such benefits. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any tax benefits that it may actually realize. The TRA Payments are not conditioned upon any continued ownership interest in Viant Technology LLC or the Company. To the extent that the Company is unable to timely make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid. The timing and amount of aggregate payments due under the TRA may vary based on a number of factors, including the amount and timing of the taxable income the Company generates each year and the tax rate then applicable. The Company calculates the liability under the TRA using a TRA model, which includes an assumption related to the fair market value of assets. The payment obligations under the TRA are obligations of Viant Technology Inc. and not of Viant Technology LLC. Payments are generally due under the TRA within a specified period of time following the filing of the Company’s tax return for the taxable year with respect to which the payment obligation arises, although interest on such payments will begin to accrue at a rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 500 basis points from the due date (without extensions) of such tax return. The TRA provides that if (i) certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations, or other changes of control were to occur, (ii) there is a material breach of any material obligations under the TRA; or (iii) the Company elects an early termination of the TRA, then the TRA will terminate and the Company's obligations, or the Company's successor’s obligations, under the TRA will accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, including an assumption that the Company would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize all potential future tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and that any Class B units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock at the time of termination. Recent Issued On April company,” the Company may, under Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act, delay adoption of new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until such standards would otherwise apply to private companies. An “emerging growth company” is one with less than $1.07 billion in annual sales, has less than $700 million in market value of its shares of common stock held by non-affiliates and issues less than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three year period. The Company may take advantage of this extended transition period until the first to occur of the date that it (i) is no longer an “emerging growth company” or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of this extended transition period. The Company has elected condensed In February Financial Accounting Standards Board (“ condensed In June 2016, the condensed In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-10, Codification Improvements , The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim reporting periods within the annual period beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The purpose of ASU 2021-04 is to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The ASU requires issuers to account for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after the modification or exchange based on the economic substance of the modification or exchange. In accordance with ASU 2021-04, an issuer determines the accounting for the modification or exchange based on whether the transaction was done to issue equity, to issue or modify debt, or for other reasons. The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim reporting periods within that annual reporting period. The Company is currently assessing the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Recent Adopted In September December 15, 2020. The Company adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2021 , and the adoption of this ASU did no t have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 prospectively on January 1, 2021, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. |

PPP Loan On April 14, 2020, the Company received the proceeds from a loan in the amount of approximately $6.0 million (the “PPP Loan”) from PNC Bank, as lender, pursuant to the PPP of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. The Company accounted for the PPP Loan as a financial liability in accordance with ASC Topic 470, Debt. Accordingly, the PPP Loan was recognized within long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and the related accrued interest was included within accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. In June 2021, the Company received notice of forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole, including all accrued unpaid interest. The Company recorded the forgiveness of approximately $6.0 million of principal and $0.1 million of accrued interest, which is included in gain on extinguishment of debt on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Revolving Credit Facility On October 31, 2019, we entered into an asset-based revolving credit and security agreement with PNC Bank (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan Agreement provides a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $40.0 million with a maturity date of October 31, 2024. The Loan Agreement is collateralized by security interests in substantially all of our assets. Advances under the Loan Agreement bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon our selection of either a Domestic Rate or a LIBOR Rate, plus an applicable margin (“Domestic Rate Loans” and “LIBOR Rate Loans”). The Domestic Rate is defined as a fluctuating interest rate equal to the greater of (1) the base commercial lending rate of PNC Bank, (2) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (3) the Daily LIBOR Rate plus 1.00%. The effective weighted average interest rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was 3.61% and 3.64%, respectively. The applicable margin commencing January 1, 2021 is between 1.50% to 2.25% for Domestic Rate Loans and between 3.50% and 4.25% for LIBOR Rate Loans based on maintaining certain undrawn availability ratios. The facility fee for undrawn amounts under the Loan Agreement is 0.375% per annum. We will also be required to pay customary letter of credit fees, as necessary. The Loan Agreement contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of default and covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to sell assets, make changes to the nature of the business, engage in mergers or acquisitions, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness and guarantees, create or permit to exist liens, pay dividends, issue equity instruments, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock or make other investments, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Loan Agreement also requires that we maintain compliance with a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of 1.40 to 1.00 at any time undrawn availability under the Loan Agreement is less than 25%. As of June 30, 2021, we are in compliance with all covenants. |

On February 12, 2021, 6.2 million RSUs were granted under the Company’s 2021 LTIP. The Company is authorized to grant RSUs, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, and performance stock awards under its 2021 LTIP. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has currently only granted RSUs and nonqualified stock options.

As of June 30, 2021, there were no nonqualified stock options vested or exercisable. T he Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation relating to unvested nonqualified stock options of approximately $ million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of The following table presents the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of nonqualified stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Black-Scholes assumptions have not been disclosed for any other periods presented as there were no nonqualified stock options granted in those periods.

The Company bases the risk-free interest rate assumption for equity awards on the rates for U.S. Treasury securities with maturities similar to those of the expected term of the award being valued. Expected Volatility. Due to the limited trading history of the Company’s common stock, the expected volatility assumption is based on volatilities of a peer group of similar companies whose share prices are publicly available. The Company will continue to apply this process until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of the Company’s own stock price becomes available. Expected Term. Given the insufficient historical data relating to nonqualified stock option exercises, the expected term assumption is based on expected terms of a peer group of similar companies whose expected terms are publicly available. The Company will continue to apply this process until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the Company’s nonqualified stock option exercises becomes available. Expected Dividend Yield. The Company’s expected dividend yield assumption is zero as it has never paid dividends and has no present intention to do so in the future. |

Income Taxes and Tax Receivable Agreement | 9. Income Taxes and Tax Receivable Agreement The provision for income taxes differs from the amount of income tax computed by applying the applicable U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to income before provision of income taxes due to Viant Technology LLC’s pass-through structure for U.S. income tax purposes, pass-through permanent differences related to forgiveness of the PPP Loan and the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset. The Company did not recognize an income tax expense/(benefit) on its share of pre-tax book income (loss), exclusive of the noncontrolling interest of 80.5% due to the full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, management determined based on applicable accounting standards and the weight of all available evidence, it was not more likely than not (“MLTN”) that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income to realize our deferred tax assets including the difference in our tax basis in excess of the financial reporting value for our investment in Viant Technology LLC. Consequently, we have established a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021. In the event that management subsequently determines that it is MLTN that we will realize our deferred tax assets in the future over the recorded amount, a decrease to the valuation allowance will be made, which will reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company has concluded based on applicable accounting standards and the weight of all available evidence, that it was MLTN that its deferred tax assets subject to the TRA would not be realized as of June 30, 2021. Therefore, the Company has not recorded a liability related to the tax savings it may realize from utilization of such deferred tax assets after concluding it was not probable that such TRA liability would be paid based on its estimates of future taxable income. As of June 30, 2021, the total unrecorded TRA liability is approximately $9.1 million. If utilization of the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA becomes MLTN in the future, the Company will record a liability related to the TRA, to the extent probable at that time, which will be recognized as an expense within its condensed consolidated statements of operations. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share/Unit | 10. Earnings (Loss) Prior to the Reorganization Transactions that occurred on February 12, 2021, the Viant Technology LLC membership structure included certain convertible preferred units and common units. As a result of the Reorganization Transactions, Class B units of Viant Technology LLC are exchangeable in the future for Class A common stock of the Company. As the conversion of Viant Technology LLC preferred and common units to Class B units was not done in a proportionate manner with respect to the rights and economic interests of the former Viant Technology LLC unit holders compared to those of the new Class B unit/shareholders in Viant Technology LLC and Viant Technology Inc, we do not believe it is appropriate to retrospectively adjust these units. Accordingly, the earnings per unit calculation presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 reflects units of the membership structure prior to the Reorganization Transactions. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, basic net loss per share has been calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Class A common stockholders for the period subsequent to the Reorganization Transactions, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the same period. Shares of Class A common stock are weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares were outstanding. Diluted net loss per share has been calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic net loss per share while considering all potentially dilutive shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, basic earnings (loss) per unit represents net income (loss) divided by the weighted-average number of units outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share has been computed in a manner consistent with that of basic net loss per share while considering all shares of potentially dilutive common units that were outstanding during the period, inclusive of the convertible preferred units using the if-converted method and the incentive common units using the treasury stock method, if dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no potential dilutive units related to incentive common units as they were all issued as of the beginning of the year. The undistributed earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 have been allocated based on the participation rights of the convertible preferred and common units as if the earnings for the period have been distributed. As the participation in distributed and undistributed earnings is identical for both classes, the distributed and undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share/unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the period following the Reorganization Transactions, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Basis Of Presentation And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements for interim financial information which are unaudited Viant Technology LLC is considered a variable interest entity, or VIE. The Company is the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of Viant Technology LLC and has decision making authority that significantly affects the economic performance of the entity. As a result, the Company consolidates Viant Technology LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation Viant Technology LLC has been determined to be the predecessor for accounting purposes and, accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the IPO and the related organizational transactions have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation purposes. Amounts for the period from January 1, 2020 through February 11, 2021 presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements herein represent the historical operations of Viant Technology LLC. The amounts as of June 30, 2021 and for the period from February 12, 2021 reflect the consolidated operations of the Company. Management believes that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair statement of its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021, or for any other future annual or interim period. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, primarily those related to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, income taxes, allowances for doubtful accounts, the useful lives of capitalized software development costs and other property, equipment and software, assumptions used in the impairment analyses of long-lived assets and goodwill, deferred revenue and accrued liabilities. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. As of June 30, 2021, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to evolve. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions consider macro-economic factors in the market, which require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in future periods. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and debt. The carrying amounts of the Company’s current financial assets and current financial liabilities are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation relates to equity awards granted under the Company’s 2021 LTIP, which is measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the equity awards granted. Since inception of the 2021 LTIP, the Company has only granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and nonqualified stock options. The fair value of RSUs is calculated using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of non-qualified stock options is estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The Black Scholes option pricing model is impacted by the fair value of the Company’s common stock, as well as changes in certain assumptions, including but not limited to, the expected common stock price volatility over the term of the nonqualified stock options, the expected term of the nonqualified stock options, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected dividend yield. A portion of RSUs granted as of June 30, 2021 to certain employees and board members, pursuant to the 2021 LTIP, will vest upon expiration of the 180 day IPO lock-up period and the remainder of RSUs and nonqualified stock options will vest through the applicable vesting dates, subject to continued employment for employee grants. RSUs awarded to board members will vest quarterly and annually through the applicable vesting dates. |
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) For the periods presented, net income (loss) is equal to comprehensive income (loss). |
Noncontrolling Interests | Noncontrolling Interests The noncontrolling interests represent the economic interests of Viant Technology LLC held by Class B common stockholders. Income or loss is attributed to the noncontrolling interests based on the weighted average LLC interests outstanding during the period. The noncontrolling interests’ ownership percentage can fluctuate over time as the Class B common stockholders elect to exchange their shares of Class B common stock for Class A common stock. |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Earnings (Loss) Basic number of The Company’s RSUs, nonqualified stock options and shares of Class B common stock do not share in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share of RSUs, nonqualified stock options and Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been presented. Diluted |
Earnings (Loss) Per Unit | Earnings (Loss) Per Unit Basic earnings (loss) per unit is calculated by dividing the earnings (loss) attributable to common unitholders by the number of weighted-average common units outstanding. The Company applies the two-class method to allocate earnings between common and convertible preferred units. Diluted earnings (loss) per unit adjusts the basic earnings (loss) per unit attributable to common unitholders and the weighted-average number of units of common units outstanding for the potential dilutive impact of common units, using the treasury-stock method, and convertible preferred units using the if-converted method. Diluted earnings (loss) per unit considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common units would have an anti-dilutive effect. |

Income Taxes | Income The Company is the managing member of Viant Technology LLC and, as a result, consolidates the financial results of Viant Technology LLC in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Viant Technology LLC is a pass-through entity for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes following a corporate reorganization effected in connection with our initial public offering. As an entity classified as a partnership for tax purposes, Viant Technology LLC is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by Viant Technology LLC is passed through to, and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including us. The Company is taxed as a corporation and pays corporate federal, state and local taxes with respect to income allocated from Viant Technology LLC, based on Viant Technology Inc.'s 19.5% economic interest in Viant Technology LLC. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities (“DTAs” and “DTLs”) for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine DTAs and DTLs on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on DTAs and DTLs is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We recognize DTAs to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our DTAs in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the DTA valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. |
Tax Receivable Agreement | Tax Receivable Agreement The Company expects to obtain an increase in its share of tax basis in the net assets of Viant Technology LLC when Class B units are exchanged by the holders of Class B units for shares of Class A common stock of the Company and upon other qualifying transactions. Each change in outstanding shares of Class A common stock of the Company results in a corresponding increase or decrease in the Company's ownership of Class A units of Viant Technology LLC. The Company intends to treat any exchanges of Class B units as direct purchases of LLC interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that Viant Technology Inc. would otherwise pay in the future to various taxing authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with Viant Technology LLC and the holders of Class B units of Viant Technology LLC (the “Members”). In the event that such parties exchange any or all of their Class B units for Class A common stock, the TRA requires the Company to make payments to such holders for 85% of the tax benefits realized, or in some cases deemed to be realized, by the Company by such exchange as a result of (i) increases in the Company’s tax basis of its ownership interest in the net assets of Viant Technology LLC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of noncontrolling interest, (ii) tax basis increases attributable to payments made under the TRA, and (iii) deductions attributable to imputed interest pursuant to the TRA (the “TRA Payments”). The annual tax benefits are computed by calculating the income taxes due, including such tax benefits, and the income taxes due without such benefits. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any tax benefits that it may actually realize. The TRA Payments are not conditioned upon any continued ownership interest in Viant Technology LLC or the Company. To the extent that the Company is unable to timely make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid. The timing and amount of aggregate payments due under the TRA may vary based on a number of factors, including the amount and timing of the taxable income the Company generates each year and the tax rate then applicable. The Company calculates the liability under the TRA using a TRA model, which includes an assumption related to the fair market value of assets. The payment obligations under the TRA are obligations of Viant Technology Inc. and not of Viant Technology LLC. Payments are generally due under the TRA within a specified period of time following the filing of the Company’s tax return for the taxable year with respect to which the payment obligation arises, although interest on such payments will begin to accrue at a rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 500 basis points from the due date (without extensions) of such tax return. The TRA provides that if (i) certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations, or other changes of control were to occur, (ii) there is a material breach of any material obligations under the TRA; or (iii) the Company elects an early termination of the TRA, then the TRA will terminate and the Company's obligations, or the Company's successor’s obligations, under the TRA will accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, including an assumption that the Company would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize all potential future tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and that any Class B units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock at the time of termination. |
Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Issued On April company,” the Company may, under Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act, delay adoption of new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until such standards would otherwise apply to private companies. An “emerging growth company” is one with less than $1.07 billion in annual sales, has less than $700 million in market value of its shares of common stock held by non-affiliates and issues less than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three year period. The Company may take advantage of this extended transition period until the first to occur of the date that it (i) is no longer an “emerging growth company” or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of this extended transition period. The Company has elected condensed In February Financial Accounting Standards Board (“ condensed In June 2016, the condensed In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-10, Codification Improvements , The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim reporting periods within the annual period beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The purpose of ASU 2021-04 is to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The ASU requires issuers to account for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after the modification or exchange based on the economic substance of the modification or exchange. In accordance with ASU 2021-04, an issuer determines the accounting for the modification or exchange based on whether the transaction was done to issue equity, to issue or modify debt, or for other reasons. The guidance is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim reporting periods within that annual reporting period. The Company is currently assessing the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements. |
