Current mobile advertising models are ineffective.

  • Mobile websites and most mobile applications typically display advertisement on the side or as banner ads, where users’ true attention cannot be captured.
  • In the era of duopoly by Google and Facebook controlling almost 60% of the global digital advertising, advertisers are hoping for emergence of legitimate third player to help keep prices in check and delivering more effective brand exposure.
  • Ad Fraud is another major issue in the mobile & digital advertising space. Malicious click-bots and fake traffic have cost advertisers $6.5 billion globally in 2017, according to a report from Association of National Advertisers (ANA) and White Ops (a cyber security firm which exposed the “Methbot” operation).
