👋 Hey Product Hunt! We built Koah because advertising is the future of LLM app monetization. Just like the web, mobile, and social media before it, AI will evolve beyond subscriptions to scale through ads. We saw developers stuck with subscription-only models - we're giving them a better option. Our solution is simple: a SDK that intelligently places relevant ads within AI responses. We're starting with affiliate partnerships, and our early customers are seeing promising results with minimal impact on user experience. Our key focus areas: 🔌 One-line integration ✨ Non-intrusive ad placement ⚡️ Minimal latency impact We'd love your feedback! Happy to discuss our vision for AI monetization, technical approach, or anything else you're curious about.

Congrats on the launch @guard_if @herkdaherk. Idea sound interesting. So the business model is rev share on ad performance or is there a fee structre?

@guard_if @herkdaherk @ashitvora yep, rev share is the model currently - most values aligned with performance.

sounds like a ads affiliate network for ai-native apps. since monetization is a common problems for ai apps, I bet there will definitely be a lot of demand for the Koah product!

I've spoken to another team that's exploring conversational/LLM ads. I appreciate that you're opening opportunities to monetize without charging users, but I'm unsure if this is too skeuomorphic.

@rrhoover we actually agree, and we're likely going to experiment a lot with net-new formats rather than just AI versions of what currently exists. Our goal is monetization for AI companies more broadly, which will require some innovative / very different formats rather than reskinning.

This looks legit, I actually had a similar idea before, but I assumed it would be more suited for ChatGPT, given their ecosystem of GPTs. I’m curious though, how did you tackle the cold start problem for a platform like this? It seems like a classic platform business, requiring a balance between advertisers, app builders, and app users to scale effectively.

Congrats on the launch! This looks like a game-changer for AI app monetization. What's your thoughts on the future of AI ads and how they'll transform the online landscape?

Launching soon!
I recommend this app as it offers a great way to monetize for LLM app developers. With Koah, you can easily add non-intrusive ads to your model's responses with just one line of code.

This could help me earn from my AI projects. How do you balance ad relevance with user experience?

Really cool way to monetize, we've considered using Stripe's native integration (https://docs.stripe.com/agents) but this is a great way to have the product stay free for longer. Do you integrate directly into the vercel AI SDK?
Nick Tay
Congrads on your launch! The idea is interesting, but I do not quite understand how it can help other LLM apps monitize from the screenshots.
