Ad formats

Every in-app ad format,built for re-engagement.

Run banner, native, interstitial, rewarded video, playable and video from one template and one bidder. Match the format to how long each user has been gone.

The formats

Six formats, each with a job.

Banner

Use it for steady, low-cost reminders to users who have just slipped. It builds frequency and asks for little attention.

Native

Use it for product and offer reminders in feeds. It matches the app around it, so it reads as part of the screen.

Interstitial

Use it for one clear offer with a deep link, shown at a natural pause. Keep frequency low.

Rewarded video

Use it for lapsed users in games and apps with rewards. Users opt in, so attention is high.

Playable

Use it to show lapsed users what is new. A short demo plays inside the ad before the tap.

Video

Use it for dormant and uninstalled users who need a reason to reinstall. Sound and motion carry the story.

Specs and viewability

Creative that passes checks and gets seen.

Creative specifications

Each format sets requirements for file type, aspect ratio, file weight, length and audio. We share the current list at onboarding and validate assets before launch.

Viewability

An impression counts as viewable when enough of the ad is on screen for long enough, under industry standards. Independent measurement SDKs verify this inside the app.

How it works

Live in three steps.

  1. Map formats to stages

    Choose formats for each lifecycle segment, from slipping to uninstalled.

  2. Build from one template

    Your feed and brand rules fill every format, and publishers decide which formats each app accepts.

  3. Launch and compare

    Compare formats on CVR and incremental lift, then scale the winners.
