LOCAL DOOH AD NETWORK

Local advertisers, matched to your screens

EdgeBeam Wireless™ brings exclusive local ad demand to media owners, filling the inventory that national programmatic leaves open. You earn a share of every local ad that runs.

Local advertising: what your screens are missing

Programmatic DOOH is built for national brands buying through DSPs. Local businesses like car dealerships, restaurants, healthcare providers and home services rarely buy that way, so their budgets seldom reach your screens. EdgeBeam brings those advertisers to your network and fills the slots national advertisers leave empty.

We deliver ready-to-run campaigns straight into your CMS, or as files you review first. You schedule them alongside your other content.

2. We Match Campaigns to Venues

We place campaigns by market and venue type, so each one runs where it has the most impact.

3. You Earn a Share

You receive a share of the revenue from every local ad EdgeBeam places on your screens.

Local by Design

Every campaign comes from a business that wants to reach people in a specific market. EdgeBeam is built for local advertisers like these. Our partner broadcast stations have local ad sales teams in their markets, selling to businesses like these every day, so you get their reach without hiring a sales team of your own. You can get ads from businesses like:

Automotive dealers

Sales events, service specials and new inventory.

Restaurants and QSR

Daily specials, new menu items and local promotions.

Healthcare Practices

New patient offers and practice awareness.

Home Services

Seasonal offers from HVAC, plumbing, roofing and more.

HOW THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS

Built on broadcast, the same way TV reaches every home in a market.

EdgeBeam runs on ATSC 3.0, the newest broadcast standard, using spectrum from local TV stations. Most screen networks send each file to each screen separately over cellular or broadband, so every new screen adds another copy and another data charge. Broadcast works differently: we transmit a file once, and every equipped screen in range receives it at the same moment.

Comparison of delivery methods: typical delivery sends a separate copy to each screen, while EdgeBeam broadcast sends one transmission that reaches every equipped screen at once.

How We Connect

Your CMS decides what plays. Halo One gets it there.

Your ads connect through your CMS. We deliver ready-to-run campaigns straight into your CMS, or as files you review first. You approve them and schedule them like any other content.

Your screens connect to broadcast through Halo One. Halo One, typically one per venue, receives EdgeBeam content over the air from local broadcast towers instead of over the internet.

WHY BROADCAST

What broadcast delivery gives you

EdgeBeam Wireless is a joint venture of four of the nation’s largest local broadcasting groups: Scripps, Gray Media, Nexstar and Sinclair. Our network runs on their combined broadcast spectrum, a footprint no single broadcaster could match.

Lower data costs as you grow

We send content once instead of sending it to each screen individually, so delivery doesn’t add per-screen data charges as you scale.

Every screen updates at once

New creative reaches every screen in a market at the same moment.

Plug and play

Halo One works on an independent network to avoid integration and security friction.

Reliable delivery

Broadcast keeps delivering, even through cell network congestion.
