Same idea, different buyer
DanAds builds the same core thing we do: a self-serve portal where advertisers run campaigns on your inventory directly, under your brand. The difference is who it is sold to, and whether you can find out what it costs.
DanAds publishes no pricing. Anywhere.danads.com/pricing returns a 404. There is no pricing link in the navigation or the footer, and no setup fee, revenue share, SaaS fee or minimum commitment stated anywhere on the site. Every route in is Contact Us, Book a Demo or Get Started. Checked 16 September 2026.
What that tells you
It is not an oversight. Companies that sell to enterprise media owners deliberately price per deal, because every deal is different and the number depends on what they find in your stack.
It means you cannot evaluate them on a Tuesday afternoon, and you will be in a sales process before you learn whether it is affordable.
We publish ours, and you can start without speaking to anyone.
Who each of us is for
DanAds is for a media owner with existing order management and billing systems, offline inventory, and a team to run an implementation project.
Pyrobid is for a publisher who wants their Advertise Here page to take payment by Friday.
These are not really competitors. They are the same idea at opposite ends of the market.
Where Pyrobid wins
Speed, price transparency, and not having to talk to anyone.
A price you can see
$29.99 a month, published, no sales call. You can evaluate the entire commercial proposition in ten seconds rather than three meetings.
Live in about five minutes
Sign up, create a placement, paste a tag. There is no implementation project, no integration scoping and no onboarding sequence to schedule.
Self-signup, no demo gate
You do not have to persuade a salesperson that you are worth serving before you can try the product.
Sized for the mid-tail
A publisher doing a few hundred thousand impressions a month is a real customer here. At DanAds you would be below the line where a per-deal sales process makes sense for them.
No revenue share on your direct deals
Stated permanently and publicly. DanAds does not publish whether they take one.
Restricted verticals, stated
Crypto, cannabis and gambling publishers supported and said out loud. DanAds publishes no vertical policy we could find.
What your advertisers see
Your brand, on your own domain. They sign up, fund an account and build a campaign in five steps. You approve the artwork before anything runs.

A screenshot is still only a picture. The demo is the running product, read only, with the login published and nothing to install.

Your network keeps what you do not sell
Every ad request runs down a chain. Your direct deals get first refusal at your price. Anything unsold falls through to what you run today.

Common questions
Is DanAds expensive?
Not published. They publish no pricing, no setup fee and no revenue share anywhere on their site, so you will be in a sales process before you know. Ours is $29.99 a month, on the page.
They do the same thing as you. Why are they not a competitor?
Same idea, opposite ends of the market. They sell an implementation partnership to media owners with offline inventory and existing enterprise systems. We sell a $29.99 monthly product to a publisher who wants their Advertise Here page to take a card. Very few buyers are genuinely choosing between us.
What happens when my site grows?
You move up a plan. Starter covers one million impressions a month at $29.99, Pro five million at $99.99 with your own domain, and anything above that is an Enterprise conversation. Your advertisers, their balances and their campaigns stay where they are.
Do you serve video or CTV?
No. Pyrobid serves web display: banners, sticky and anchor units, interstitials and native formats, sold on your own site.
