A strong evaluation follows a request from source to commercial outcome. Feature counts alone do not reveal hidden integration work or operational boundaries.

01

Traffic and products

List active channels, request formats, partner volumes, QPS, caps and expected expansion.

  • Search
  • Feeds
  • OpenRTB
  • Video
  • CPA
02

Controls and evidence

Identify which system owns targeting, filters, routes, commercial terms and the reporting used for reconciliation.

03

Security and deployment

Confirm tenant isolation, credential boundaries, roles, audit events, production validation and failure behavior.

04

Choose the module from the operating workflow

Choose Search for query/feed and publisher-link operations; XML for publisher-to-feed mapping and feed controls; OpenRTB for supply/demand bid routing; Video for VAST delivery; and CPA for offers, incoming clicks, postbacks and conversions. A response encoded as XML or JSON does not by itself determine which product you need. Validate the actual partner workflow.

  • XML / JSON feeds: $500/month per 1,000 incoming QPS in each location.
  • OpenRTB: $500/month per 1,000 incoming QPS in each location.
  • VAST Video: $500/month per 1,000 incoming QPS in each location.
  • Search Syndication: $500/month per 100,000 searches per day.
  • CPA / CPI / CPL: $500/month per 100,000 incoming clicks per day.
05

Compare a complete platform quote

State the module, each QPS location, the required daily volume and the optional add-ons. Compare the same incoming-only measurement and period across quotes. Do not assume a competitor uses a particular charging rule without checking its terms.

  • You can order any number of separate platforms. Each platform has its own capacity charges, selected add-ons and one-time setup fee. Each selected add-on is charged once per platform, not once per module or location. One calculator configuration represents one platform.
  • Setup is $1,500 once per platform, not per month, module or location. It is separate from monthly capacity and add-on charges and is included once in the first-month total shown by the calculator.
  • Published USD prices are final and include hosting, white-label branding and applicable taxes, with no hidden fees. Any additional work must be priced and agreed upfront. The in-platform AI add-on also includes model usage; no unlimited-token allowance is promised.
06

Changing capacity during the month

QPS capacity can be increased or decreased at any time in the published increments. Charges are prorated for the time each capacity is active. The calculator shows full-month rates, not a partial-period invoice or an automatic overage charge.

  • Confirm the effective date of a capacity change when comparing a partial-month invoice with a full-month estimate.
Product accuracy

This guide describes Nexus product architecture and general AdTech operating concepts. Exact enforcement and integration behavior depends on the enabled revenue engine and agreed deployment configuration.
