  Coohua (酷划在线) is a Beijing-based Chinese mobile advertising company founded in 2014 and
  backed by Qiming Venture Partners. It pioneered the incentive- and lock-screen-advertising model
  in China, rewarding users with cash for unlocking their screens, reading content, and engaging
  with ads. Its flagship products include Coohua Lockscreen (酷划锁屏) and the Tao News (淘新闻)
  reading-rewards app, serving advertisers across internet, finance, automotive, and e-commerce
  verticals. At its peak Coohua captured a majority share of China's lock-screen advertising market
  and returned billions of yuan in cash rewards to users annually. No public API, developer portal,
  SDK, or machine-readable specification could be found during enrichment; this profile is retained
  as a company/provider record surfaced from the Qiming portfolio.
