Turn ad‑blocked visitors into premium inventory with consented, verified attributes—not cookies.

🤔 The LinkedIn Gap

You know how LinkedIn gets $60 CPMs because they can prove someone's actually a 'Senior Software Engineer'? The same person is worth $3 on most other websites. What if we could bring that verification everywhere else?

FAQ

Cue transforms users who currently generate $0 revenue (because they block all ads) into premium, verified professional audiences. Instead of blocking content, users can unlock paywalls and access premium content by sharing verified professional attributes like "Senior Software Engineer" or "Marketing VP."
LinkedIn generates $60 CPMs for verified professionals, while most publishers get $2-5 CPMs for the same users. Cue brings LinkedIn-quality targeting to your site by enabling users to verify their professional credentials directly with you.
Minimal. Publishers add a simple JavaScript event listener to their site—similar to installing Google Analytics. When a verified user visits, the system recognizes their credentials and can unlock premium content or serve targeted offers.
This creates a new user acquisition channel rather than cannibalizing subscriptions. Users who were previously blocked from accessing your content can now engage with it, potentially converting to full subscribers after experiencing your premium content.
Users self-declare and verify their professional attributes through platforms like LinkedIn. Unlike probabilistic targeting that's often 70% inaccurate, Cue's data comes directly from users who have verified their credentials—making it impossible to fake.
Users have complete control over what they share and when. All data sharing is opt-in only, and users remain anonymous to publishers. We only pass verified professional attributes, never personal identifiers or browsing history.
Publishers targeting professional audiences (business news, tech content, industry publications) see the strongest performance since Cue specializes in verified workplace credentials. However, any publisher seeking higher-quality, engaged audiences can benefit.
