Scroll Advertising · The Format

Turn the scroll into premium advertising real estate.

A new high-impact advertising format for the modern web.

Consumers scroll through billions of pages every day. Traditional display advertising competes for attention within increasingly crowded layouts. Scrollabar creates a premium advertising surface designed to capture attention — without replacing a publisher's existing inventory.

02 · The Opportunity

Advertising is everywhere. Attention is scarce.

Standard display formats are familiar to consumers and increasingly difficult for brands to differentiate with. Scrollabar introduces advertising into the scrolling experience itself — a persistent but compact presence that users can interact with to reveal a larger brand experience.
