How does it work?
This algorithm dynamically evaluates each piece of content and the viewer's engagement to decide the optimal timing for ads, whether they appear as pre-roll, mid-roll, or post-roll ads. The more ads that viewers watch, the higher the revenue for both creators and viewers!

Geographical Ad Rates
Ad rates are determined by the viewer's location, with different rates applicable for various regions, notably India (other countries come under Indian rates) and the USA.
For example, ad impressions from viewers in the USA may generate higher revenue compared to impressions from viewers in India due to the higher valuation of ad spaces in the American market.
