About Aria Ads

Aria Ads is the ad network for AI apps. It helps AI app developers earn revenue from free users by showing relevant, clearly labeled brand recommendations inside the conversation, and it gives advertisers a way to reach people at the moment they ask an AI assistant for advice, on CPM, CPC or CPA pricing. The ARIA in Aria Ads stands for Agent Revenue and Incentive Attribution. Aria Ads was founded by Robin Lim (CEO), who previously founded the AI marketing tool Axy.digital and led go-to-market for more than 30 companies, and Floriane Le Floch (CTO), a founding engineer at Lili.ai and built Axy.digital's core infrastructure. More than 1,200 advertisers are on the waitlist to run ads with Aria Ads, and the company is onboarding its first launch publishers.

Who it is for
Developers and founders of consumer AI apps, assistants and agents with an established audience and a free tier.
Problem it solves
Every AI app with a free tier pays for inference on every prompt, while most free users never upgrade, and the only options developers have had are paywalls or ad formats designed for web pages.
The solution
One API call runs alongside your model request, matches the user’s intent to a brand in the Aria Ads network, and shows a labeled recommendation next to the answer, so you earn from free users while the answer itself stays unchanged.
What makes it unique
The model writes its answer without any input from advertisers, and the sponsored recommendation is shown separately next to that answer. Every ad is labeled, runs in parallel with the model request so answers are not delayed, and advertisers never see users’ conversations or personal data.

What do DR4, DR3 and the model difference mean?
DR4:
Ahrefs' newer model. It gives more weight to links from sites with organic search traffic and rates a subdomain on its own links.
DR3:
The previous model, shown in the Ahrefs app until 1 December 2026.
Model difference:
DR4 minus DR3 for the same domain. The models calculate differently, so this is not growth or a drop; the “since” lines compare each model with itself.
