Distribution
AVOD
Definition
Ad-Supported Video on Demand. A streaming model where viewers watch content for free and the platform generates revenue through advertisements. Platforms like Tubi, Pluto TV, and Amazon Prime Video's free ad-supported tier operate on this model. Filmmakers typically earn a share of ad revenue based on how many times their film is watched.
Example
An indie horror film on Tubi might generate $0.50 to $2 per 1,000 ad-supported views, depending on the ad fill rate and audience demographics.
