Koah

Koah is an AI-native ad network that provides publishers with tools to monetize their AI applications through contextual sponsored advertisements while enabling advertisers to reach highly engaged users within AI conversations. Founded by Koah Labs Inc. and backed by Theory Ventures, Forerunner Ventures, and South Park Commons, the platform serves millions of users across leading AI applications including DeepAI, Luzia, Particle, and INLINE AI.

How It Works

• Publishers integrate Koah's lightweight SDK into their application with a few lines of code. Koah then handles ad selection, rendering, and tracking automatically, placing contextual ads inside chat and agent experiences without breaking the conversational flow.
• Advertisers create campaigns on the Koah platform targeting specific topics and high-intent queries. Koah serves their sponsored content as native ad formats directly inside AI responses, with clearly labeled sponsored units.
• The platform supports multiple ad formats including Action Cards with concise messages and calls to action, Image Cards pairing ad copy with product images, Polls for interactive brand engagement and sentiment gathering, and Expandable ads that start compact and reveal longer-form content on click.
