CPM Calculator
Calculate your advertising CPM (Cost Per Mille / Cost Per Thousand Impressions), total ad budget, and required impressions instantly. Plan full-funnel media buying across Google Ads, Meta Facebook/Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, Connected TV (CTV), and Programmatic DSPs with real 2026 industry benchmarks, viewability adjustments (vCPM), frequency reach, ROAS projections, and multi-campaign comparisons.
CPM vs vCPM: Standard CPM charges for every 1,000 ad requests served regardless of whether a human saw them. Factoring in your ad viewability rate (MRC standard: 50% in-view for 1+ sec) gives you your true Viewable CPM (vCPM), preventing wasted ad spend on below-the-fold or non-viewable impressions.
