Ad Here

Inspiration

Companies pay BILLIONS of dollars each year on ads. In 2018, the cost of a 30-second Super Bowl commercial was $5.2 million. In 2019, the average cost of a 30-second ad raised to $5.25 million. I wanted to think of a way to help local businesses during these tough times to stay afloat by earning some extra revenue through advertising.

What it does

Ad Here is a platform where local businesses can offer space to companies, other businesses, or interested people to post ads at their location.

How I built it

Here Android SDK and the Data Hub rest api to retrieve the different data layers. Brain tree payment api

Challenges I ran into

I wanted to eventbrite's API to get list of events so I could analyze different events and pinpoint locations + different types of ads that you could display to them, but not many events are happening irl during covid.
