# Ailumic > Ailumic is a self-serve advertising platform for small businesses and creators: set any budget, and it buys space for your ad in the real-time auctions that fill apps, websites, AI agents and TVs, then tells you what the ad did in one sentence, with the numbers behind it. AI agent and TV inventory is planned. Its bidding models learn from live auction outcomes. Ailumic Inc. is pre-launch: early access is open (https://www.ailumic.com/start/), public campaign access is not yet available, and its advertising service is not yet buying ads. Pages state what is built and what is next; illustrations, sample data and design targets are labelled as such. ## Key facts - What: a self-serve advertising platform. An advertiser sets a budget, an area and a duration and adds an ad; Ailumic buys space for it in the real-time auctions that fill apps, websites, AI agents and TVs, then reports in one sentence, with the numbers behind it. AI agent and TV inventory is planned. Suggested changes require the advertiser's approval. - Channels: mobile apps and websites when campaigns open; AI agents and TVs planned. Available channels and formats are shown before an advertiser approves a campaign. - AI agents, two ways: as a channel, AI agents are a place ads can appear (planned). As a manager, an advertiser's own AI agent can use Ailumic's MCP commands (the Model Context Protocol) to create and manage campaigns, check spend and understand results, with the advertiser's authorization. - Conversion reports: detailed reports of the conversion events recorded for a campaign download directly from Ailumic, without a third-party mobile measurement partner (MMP). Conversions are the events the advertiser's own website or app sends to Ailumic; the report has one row per conversion event: event time, event type, value, campaign, ad, and channel and placement. No device identifier, name or email address is in the report. - For whom: small businesses and individual creators first; agencies and larger advertisers as launch partners with managed campaigns (https://www.ailumic.com/advertisers/). - Terms: Start with what you have — there is no minimum. You pay only for ads that are actually shown. Pricing, fees and payment terms will be provided before you commit to a paid campaign. The price is in front of you before you confirm, and nothing runs until you do. No long-term commitment: pause, change the budget or stop whenever you like. What you have not spent stays on your account. No price list is published. - Placements: banner, native and full-screen when campaigns open; rewarded video next. The United States first. - Company: Ailumic Inc., a Delaware corporation founded in 2026, based in Florham Park, New Jersey, United States. - Contact: support@ailumic.com.
