Koah raised $5M seed funding (led by Forerunner) to insert relevant, sponsored ads into AI chat apps — targeting the “long tail” of consumer AI that can’t rely on subscriptions. CEO Nic Baird says the format delivers higher engagement (7.5% CTR, 4–5x effectiveness) and is already live in apps like Luzia, Heal, Liner and DeepAI.
