The US has some of the most expensive cellular data plans in the world. Xfinity Mobile, however, is a new kind of network designed to save people money.

Xfinity Mobile is turning pre-roll ads into price tags by calculating how much money people are spending on data to stream an upcoming YouTube video to show how overpriced other plans are in their Data in Dollars campaign.

For example, if someone is about to watch a five-minute beauty-tutorial video, they are shown an ad that tells them, “The next tutorial could cost you up to $1.06 cents in data. So switch to Xfinity Mobile and save.”

The prices shown in each film change depending on the length of the video the person is about to stream and the cost of data with their specific carrier.
