Vessel CEO Jason Kilar — also former Hulu CEO — said the company decided to flip the switch on ads because subscribers asked for it. Vessel , the San Francisco -based video service set up by former co-founders and Hulu CEO , has announced that it is offering an ad-free version for all paying subscribers, driven by customers' requests for "an ad-free experience. " The company's early access service enables viewers to access exclusive video content months of public release, and reportedly earns content creators 12 in revenue per over 250 views. The move to go ad-free follows a similarly launched plan at YouTube and Hulu 's introduction of its ad-free, Red.
