Your menu bar does nothing all day. Mine now pays me to leave it alone. TigerAds turns the empty menu bar slot on your Mac into ad space. Advertisers bid for it, highest bidder gets shown, you get paid for every impression. No catch, no "coins," no fake currency you can't cash out. Real money, split 50/50 with whoever's running the ad. Install it, forget about it, check your earnings whenever. That's the whole product.

Hey hunters, Simonas here.
as you may know, I run a few small SaaS products solo, and I'm always looking at random unused real estate on my own machine thinking "this could be making money."
Mac Menu bar felt like the obvious one. It's always visible, nobody's monetizing it, and every ad network wants to shove a banner in your face or sell your data instead.
So I built TigerAds. Advertisers bid for the spot, highest bid wins, ad shows in everyone's menu bar who has the app installed.
You get 50% of whatever that ad generated, automatically.
Not coupons or credits, cash.
For advertisers it's dead simple too, no ad account approval process, no targeting nonsense. Set a bid, set a budget, you're live.
It's early, so i would genuinely love feedback on two things: does the bid market make sense at a glance, and does the install → earn flow feel trustworthy or sketchy.
Tell me straight, that's why I'm here.

what stops advertisers from just bidding insanely low since the auction is happening in a tiny pool of users?
Report
how does the bidding actually work day to day, like is it one steady advertiser rotating in or do different brands swap in and out hourly? kind of curious what my bar is going to look like over a week.

Saw the payout hit my account within a day of installing it, which was a nice surprise. Kind of wild watching the bid amount change in real time as different advertisers compete for that little slot.

how quickly do payouts hit your account, and is there a minimum threshold before you can actually cash out anything
