Content first

A product for your readers before it is an ad unit.

Most monetization tools start with the ad and look for somewhere to put it. We start with the experience your audience came for.

  • Your newsroom and social video in one player
  • AI video teasers created from your articles
  • Curated editorial video when you need more
  • Your editors decide what goes live
