About Simula
Summary
Simula builds native ad infrastructure for AI apps, replacing standard banner and interstitial formats with interactive experiences, such as AI brand ambassadors and games played alongside AI companions. AI app developers integrate Simula to monetize their user bases without degrading the conversational or generative experience. The product targets the gap between how conventional ad formats disrupt AI products and what brands need to reach those audiences.
Go-to-market
AI app developers and platforms are the direct customer, brought on through direct integration partnerships rather than self-serve signup.
