Introduction
Vexrail is an AI advertising marketplace that connects advertisers who want to promote their products with publishers who run AI-powered applications.
Advertisers create campaigns to place their products inside AI conversations. Publishers integrate Vexrail into their AI applications to monetize them with contextual, non-intrusive ad placements.
How It Works
- Advertisers list their products, set budgets and bids, and launch campaigns.
- Publishers integrate the Vexrail API into their AI apps using any OpenAI-compatible SDK.
- When a user interacts with a publisher's AI application, Vexrail serves relevant product recommendations within the AI response.
- Advertisers pay per click (CPC model). Publishers earn a share of that revenue.
Two Roles, One Platform
Every Vexrail account can operate as an advertiser, a publisher, or both. You choose your role during onboarding and can switch between them at any time from the dashboard.
Advertisers
If you sell a product or service and want it recommended inside AI conversations, you are an advertiser. You will:
- Create projects that group your products and campaigns under a single domain.
- Add products with a name, description, and URL.
- Set up campaigns with a CPC bid, budget, and schedule.
- Fund your wallet to pay for clicks.
- Track performance through analytics dashboards.

Publishers
If you run an AI application (chatbot, assistant, agent, or any LLM-powered product) and want to monetize it, you are a publisher. You will:
- Create projects that represent your AI applications.
- Generate API keys for authentication.
- Point your existing OpenAI-compatible SDK at the Vexrail API endpoint.
- Enable monetization to start earning from contextual ad placements.
- Track earnings and withdraw funds from your wallet.
Key Concepts
| Concept | Description |
|---|---|
| Project | A container for your work on Vexrail, tied to a specific domain. Advertisers use projects to group products and campaigns. Publishers use projects to represent their AI applications. |
| Domain Verification | You must prove ownership of your domain by adding a DNS TXT record. This is required before you can activate campaigns (advertisers) or generate API keys (publishers). |
| CPC (Cost Per Click) | The pricing model used on Vexrail. Advertisers set a base CPC when creating a campaign and are charged only when a user clicks on a promoted product. |
| Wallet | Your financial account on Vexrail. Advertisers add funds to pay for clicks. Publishers accumulate earnings and can withdraw to a bank account. |
