About Exit Bee

At Exit Bee, we recognise the irritation of having the online experience interrupted with banners, pop ups and other digital display formats. Using proprietary technology and machine learning we are able to determine when a user has come to the end of an individual online journey and is preparing to move to the next activity. Because it’s on those moments between activities that we’re all more likely to engage with something that we haven’t planned for.

We call these micro moments: a brief period of time during which users’ attention becomes available. At that moment we deliver creatively impactful display ads that are both contextually relevant to the content most recently consumed, and in a format appropriate to both the environment and tone.

With evidence that shows up to 30 times increased engagement, Exit Bee not only offers a new premium revenue opportunity for publishers but a versatile, highly effective display ad opportunity for brands at a time when cut through is the holy grail of advertising.
