For DOOH buyers
Outdoor DOOH delivers the broadest single impression count of any category — the average screen serves 985 impressions per day to a passing audience of commuters and pedestrians. CPMs are competitive ($2.78 average on the Trillboards network) because the audience is in transit, not in decision mode.

Trillboards handles all programmatic demand wiring; the operator receives a monthly revenue share with no per-impression accounting overhead.
Outdoor DOOH in the DOOH ecosystem
Outdoor DOOH is the classic out-of-home segment that buyers associate with billboards and street kiosks. On the Trillboards network this category includes pedestrian-facing screens in NYC (heavy concentration in the Bronx and outer boroughs), Chicago, and Los Angeles, as well as a smaller international footprint. The audience archetype skews toward urban commuters — mixed groups, brief dwell per impression, but enormous reach: 985 daily impressions per screen makes outdoor placements the lowest cost-per-thousand-eyes on the platform. Buyer demand is dominated by national consumer brands (telecom, automotive, packaged food) plus political and cause campaigns during election cycles. The Trillboards OpenRTB feed makes this inventory available to standard DOOH DSPs via the OAAA-recognized programmatic protocols.

How programmatic DOOH works at outdoor dooh
Each screen at outdoor dooh runs the Trillboards kiosk app, which holds an open OpenRTB 2.6 connection to the Trillboards SSP. Roughly every 30 seconds, the device fires an ad request carrying the IAB DOOH inventory descriptor (venue category, geographic bucket, screen format) plus any locally observed audience signals from the on-device CV pipeline — group composition, audience archetype, and attention level — all aggregated and stripped of per-person identifiers before they leave the screen.
Demand-side platforms bid in under 100 ms; the winning creative ships back, plays inside the device's native VAST player, and confirms playback via a signed proof-of-play receipt. Trillboards reconciles those receipts daily against partner-reported numbers (the canonical record of truth for billable impressions) and credits the venue's earner balance monthly. The outdoor dooh category aggregate on the Trillboards network averages $2.78 USD floor CPM and 985 daily impressions per screen, numbers that translate directly into the earnings model below.
The Trillboards platform supports both first-party and third-party VAST creatives, OMID-compliant viewability measurement where the creative declares OMID support, and full proof-of-play receipts signed at the device level — meeting the Out of Home Advertising Association of America (OAAA) measurement standards and the IAB DOOH 1.0 specification. Buyers using the Trillboards OpenRTB endpoint can target outdoor dooh specifically via the IAB Audience Taxonomy plus the Trillboards segtax=600 namespace without ever receiving per-screen identifiers in the bid request.
