Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], May 18: NeuGenM, the AI-native media and advertising platform, today announced the launch of LLM (Large Language Model) advertising across India, South Asia, and Southeast Asia -- marking the first time brands in these markets can reach audiences directly within AI-powered conversational environments.

The launch is made possible through an exclusive regional partnership with the Thrad network, the leading infrastructure provider for LLM-native ad inventory. Together, NeuGenM and Thrad bring brands an entirely new advertising surface: AI conversations -- where intent is highest and attention is undivided.

"Consumers are moving from search bars to prompt bars. They don't browse ten blue links anymore -- they ask AI for the answer. Brands that show up in that answer will win the next decade. With this exclusive partnership NeuGenM makes that possible for every advertiser in India, South Asia & SEA."

-- Ashish Thukral, Co-Founder & CEO

"Our partners understand the region in a way no global player can replicate. This partnership gives brands across Asia direct access to the surface where consumer intent now lives."

-- Andrea Tortella, Co-Founder & CEO

LLM advertising fundamentally differs from traditional digital ad formats. Rather than banner placements or keyword bidding, brands appear as natural, AI-generated recommendations within conversational responses -- delivering value at the exact moment a user is actively seeking information, guidance, or a solution.

Key highlights of the NeuGenM x Thrad LLM Ad offering:

*

First-of-its-kind regional access: Exclusive LLM ad inventory across India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines

*

Context-first delivery: Ads surface only when contextually relevant to a user's active query -- zero forced impressions

*

Conversational format: Brand messages are delivered as natural-language recommendations, not disruptive creatives

*

Brand safety by design: Thrad's inventory is curated, with full transparency and category-level controls

*

Performance measurement: NeuGenM provides first-in-market LLM ad attribution, tracking query-to-intent-to-conversion journeys

Early access is now open for brands and agencies across the region. NeuGenM will onboard a limited cohort of launch partners ahead of general availability.
