Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | 13. Segment information The Company identifies operating segments as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available and are regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company’s CODM, who has final authority in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. The profitability measure employed by CODM is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). The use of EBITDA as a financial metric provides management and investors with a clearer view of the core business performance and profitability, excluding the effects of financing and other non-operational expenses. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had three operating segments: a) "Fluent", which is Owned and Operated and Commerce Media Solutions revenue, b) "Call Solutions", and c) "AdParlor". The Company determined that it has one reportable segment, "Fluent," for the purposes of segment reporting. The Fluent reporting segment combines Fluent with the Call Solutions operating segment. This reporting unit works with advertisers to then bring consumers to their products through multiple media channels and earn revenue when a consumer completes an action as agreed upon with the advertisers. The remaining activity represents the operating results of AdParlor, LLC, which mainly performs media buying, and those businesses sold or in run-off, which are included for purposes of reconciliation of the respective balances below to the consolidated financial statements and included within "Unallocated" below. The Company determined its reportable segments based on how revenue is earned as well as the agreements entered into with its advertisers. In addition, certain advertisers overlap within the different operating segments and they are managed consistently with shared management. Further, the Company considered other qualitative factors, such as the environment operated in, and quantitative factors to determine its reportable segment. The significant expense categories and amounts align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to and used by the CODM in evaluating performance and EBITDA profitability and were identified as a) cost of revenue b) salaries and benefits, c) professional fees, and d) IT and software. The Company does not allocate certain shared expenses such as interest expense and other non-recurring items. The allocation methodology is regularly assessed, evaluated and subject to future changes. Summarized financial information concerning the Company's segments for the twelve months ended twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are shown in the following tables below, noting prior period amounts have been recast to conform to the Company's current period segment presentation:
