Revenue shared with you.
Brands advertise in the Mac menu bar. People choose to show those ads and receive 70% of the revenue from valid display minutes.
What can the app see?
No screenshots, keystrokes, browsing history, file contents or app/window titles are collected. The app checks its own ad placement and basic session eligibility. Account, delivery and payment records are needed to run the service.
