Advertising Specs

Advertising on the Daily Brief App requires specific creative specifications. All ads must be approved for creative content prior to their use within the app.

Design Characteristics

All ads must be designed as printed newspaper-style ads from the 19th and 20th centuries. Brands have latitude for interpretation, abiding by the following guidelines:

  • Color should be limited to sepia or black and white, with only limited instances of other muted tones.
  • Drawings should appear hand-drawn.
  • Brands do not need to conform their logos to meet these creative guidelines (including advertising brand and third-party brands like the Apple App Store) but will need to use a black and white or greyscale version.

Ad Sizes

Varying ad sizes are presented on various device sizes and orientation. There are two available blocks, each with two required creatives.
