How to Simplify and Scale DOOH Advertising with Cape
In a world where consumers are constantly on the move, Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising remains one of the most compelling ways to reach audiences. Whether it’s a dynamic billboard lighting up a city street or a transit screen catching commuters’ attention, DOOH campaigns are increasingly personalized, reacting to time of day, weather conditions, and foot traffic.
With global DOOH ad spend projected to hit $17.28 billion by 2024, and 73% of consumers rating DOOH as the most engaging ad format, the potential is massive. But there’s a catch: creative production for DOOH is complex, fragmented, and often painfully manual.
Cape is here to change that.
What Is DOOH Advertising?
Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising includes any digital display in a public space, from billboards and bus shelters to kiosks and shopping malls. These formats are highly effective but wildly inconsistent in shape, size, and resolution.
Manually scaling one design across hundreds of custom formats is time-consuming and prone to errors - especially when trying to maintain brand consistency and creative quality.
Cape Makes DOOH Easy
Cape automates every step of the DOOH creative process, so your team can scale effortlessly, maintain brand integrity, and get campaigns live faster.
Auto-Resize for Any DOOH Format
Automatically generate hundreds of DOOH formats from a single Cape template, PSD, or AE file. Our platform applies layout logic and styling rules based on aspect ratio, so every asset looks on-brand, no matter the format.
Start From Scratch or Upload Existing Files
Build a master creative directly in Cape or import a pre-existing PSD/AE file. Once uploaded:
Add your required formats
Apply styling logic across sizes
Export assets or push them directly to your ad server or DSP
Creative elements like images, headlines, and CTAs can be updated once and applied across all formats instantly, saving hours of manual work.
Dynamic Feed Integration
Connect live feeds to power up your DOOH campaigns with real-time data like:
Inventory or availability
Pricing and promotions
Countdown timers
Location-specific targeting
Everything stays relevant, localized, and accurate, without manual updates.
