In-Stream Ad Revenue

Monetize your live streams by enabling in-stream ads. BitoCircle matches ads to your content and audience—you receive the full revenue share.

How it works

When you enable in-stream ads, short ad units (pre-roll, mid-roll, or overlay) are inserted into your live streams. Ads are intelligently selected based on contextual and audience signals to maximize relevance and engagement.
