How the buy executes at train stations

Each screen runs the Trillboards kiosk app on an open OpenRTB 2.6 connection to our SSP. Roughly every 30 seconds, the device fires an ad request carrying the IAB DOOH inventory descriptor, venue category, location, screen format, plus the live audience measurements from the on-device CV pipeline.

Demand-side platforms bid in under 100 ms. The winning creative ships back, plays in the device's native VAST player, and confirms playback with a signed proof-of-play receipt. Those receipts reconcile daily against partner-reported numbers, which is the record we bill against.

We serve first-party and third-party VAST, OMID viewability where the creative declares it, and device-signed proof of play, meeting the OAAA measurement standards and the IAB DOOH 1.0 specification. Buyers on our OpenRTB endpoint target train stations through the IAB Audience Taxonomy and the Trillboards segtax=600 namespace, and receive no per-screen identifiers in the bid request.


If you own the venue

Transit operators contract with Trillboards to host platform and concourse screens. The hardware is ruggedized for transit environments and operates over the station’s onboard connectivity.
