AdVision Connect launches next generation advertising and service platform for smart TVs, displays
AdVision Connect, a breakthrough digital signage and guest experience platform, has officially launched its freemium software designed to transform ordinary smart TVs and Android-powered devices into powerful, interactive information and revenue hubs without requiring any additional hardware.
Operating seamlessly on existing televisions and Android devices, AdVision Connect gives property managers full control over the content displayed in their vacation rentals, hotels, retail stores, and transit hubs. From personalised welcome messages and local recommendations to instant Wi-Fi access via QR codes and dynamic advertising, the system redefines guest engagement and monetisation in the digital age.
"AdVision Connect evolved from a simple need to display advertisements into a comprehensive solution for a multi-billion dollar industry," says Trent Challis, the platform's developer. "Property owners can now monetise the guest experience without technical expertise or additional hardware investments."
By offering interactive, real-time content such as service bookings, stay extensions, food delivery, local tours, and more, AdVision Connect helps businesses create personalised experiences that drive action and spending. With full 4K video support across all major smart TV brands and a web-based dashboard for real-time updates, the platform puts control directly in the hands of property managers, regardless of their technical skill level.
AdVision Connect removes traditional barriers to digital signage. Businesses can deploy the software instantly on Samsung, LG, Sony, Panasonic, Hisense, TCL, and other Android-capable devices. The platform's freemium model means zero upfront cost, with monetisation opportunities scaling through ad impressions and additional content integrations.
"In rental properties, the system can display Wi-Fi details with QR codes for instant connection," Challis explains. "Its complete customisability makes anything possible from selling retail items to booking local tours or ordering food delivery."
Content can be changed remotely from any browser, eliminating reliance on technical support or third-party vendors. This real-time control also allows businesses to respond quickly to guest needs, maximise upselling opportunities, and maintain a dynamic digital presence.
Initially developed for holiday rentals, AdVision Connect is rapidly gaining interest across industries. A major Canadian train company is evaluating the software for onboard entertainment, while a London-based taxi operator is preparing to adopt the platform to replace its legacy advertising displays.
"We're seeing applications in areas we hadn't initially considered, which demonstrates the platform's versatility and broad appeal," says Challis.
As digital interaction becomes a standard expectation in modern hospitality and retail, AdVision Connect positions itself at the forefront of this transformation bridging guest experience and business growth through a single, easy-to-use system.
