ZeroClick partners with Dappier to monetize conversational AI platform
Today we're excited to announce that ZeroClick has partnered with Dappier to bring reasoning-time advertising to their growing network of AI-powered publisher experiences. This partnership connects ZeroClick's advertiser demand with the AI search, chat, and answer engines that Dappier deploys across the open web.
About Dappier
Dappier is a monetization platform for the AI answers economy. Founded by Dan Goikhman and Krish Arvapally - the team behind Mojiva, a mobile ad network that raised over $42M before being acquired by PubMatic - Dappier helps publishers and data owners take control of how their content is used and monetized in the age of AI.
Dappier's platform lets publishers deploy branded AI search, copilots, and chat experiences directly on their websites, all powered by RAG data models built from the publisher's own content. Dappier Ask AI agents can be deployed in minutes, giving media companies a way to keep readers on-site and engaged through AI-driven interactions rather than losing them to external tools: Publishers can easily deploy Ask AI in formats tuned for existing user flows, from AI search bars to in-article agents, while capturing rich intent signals from conversations, creating value for both publishers and advertisers.
Publishers can also syndicate their content to LLM builders and AI agent developers across 15+ integrations with platforms like Zapier, Cohere, OpenClaw and Langchain - creating a legitimate, permissioned alternative to content scraping. Their publisher network supports dozens of sites across brands like Benzinga, The News-Press & Gazette Co., and Wild Sky Media, with recent partnerships with networks like Dianomi further expanding Dappier's reach into premium financial publishing. They've also built integrations with partners like Sovrn and LiveRamp to power personalized, contextual ad experiences within AI conversations.
Powering the publisher AI experience
The shift to AI-driven content consumption creates a fundamental challenge for publishers: as readers increasingly interact with AI rather than scrolling through pages, traditional display ad inventory becomes less effective. Publishers need a monetization layer that works inside conversational AI - not around it.
Dappier makes it easy to deploy ad-monetized AI experiences. ZeroClick connects those experiences to a growing network of advertisers who want to reach users in AI-native environments.
Together, this partnership means Dappier's publishers get access to ZeroClick's reasoning-time ads - contextually relevant sponsored content that appears naturally within AI-generated answers. When a reader asks a publisher's Ask AI embed about a topic, ZeroClick can surface a relevant advertiser as additional context, without disrupting the conversation or compromising the publisher's brand.
A natural fit
Dappier and ZeroClick share a core belief: that AI experiences should be sustainable for the people who create them. Dappier gives publishers the tools to deploy AI on their own terms. ZeroClick gives them a way to fund it.
For publishers on Dappier's platform, the integration means more revenue from their AI experiences without any additional setup. For ZeroClick's advertisers, it means access to a new class of high-attention, on-site AI inventory across Dappier's publisher network.
