# BidSmart

BidSmart is our optional system designed to improve monetization performance and help drive higher ad revenue in your title. If you're interested in enabling it, please coordinate with your Lion Studios Manager so we can make sure your setup is ready and guide you through rollout/testing.

BidSmart runs on top of Lion Ads and does not interfere with standard ad loading. When an eligible higher-paying ad is available, BidSmart will serve that instead.

{% hint style="info" %}
To get the most out of the BidSmart system, we recommend using the latest version of the LionAds package.
{% endhint %}

### How to configure BidSmart

1. [Setup BidSmart in Lion Settings Manager](/readme/features/ads/bidsmart/setup.md) (Required)
2. [Setup Remote Configs](/readme/features/ads/bidsmart/remote-config.md) (Required)
3. [Run AB experiment](/readme/features/ads/bidsmart/a-b-experiment-optional.md) ((Optional if asked by your Lion representative)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://lionstudios.gitbook.io/readme/features/ads/bidsmart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
