From traffic monitoring to ad-platform connection

  1. 01

    Monitor visits

    Your site’s measurement tag records visits, including traffic from ads.

  2. 02

    Detect Bot visits

    Several sources of information help identify Bot and suspicious visits.

  3. 03

    Check connection settings

    Connection settings and pauses are checked before eligible Bot visits are connected.

  4. 04

    Connect and review results

    Connect to your configured ad platforms and review detection counts and connection status in your dashboard.

Bot visits are sent according to your connection settings. To exclude ad delivery, configure the relevant audience in your ad platform.

Built for day-to-day ad operations

Connect with major ad platforms

Prevent ads from reaching Bots again

Connect with Meta, TikTok, Yahoo! JAPAN Ads, SmartNews and Google Ads. Talk to us about your needs for other platforms.

Manage multiple sites

Keep an overview in one place

Review Bot detections and connection status by site, so your team can see which client sites need attention.

See the reasons behind detections

Explain the findings to clients

Review why each visit was flagged as Bot traffic. Use reports and CSV exports to share findings with your team and clients.

See why a visit was flagged

Check the reasons for each visit. For a closer look at how detection works, open the details below.

Browser

Canvas & WebGL render fingerprint

Headless environments without a real GPU produce SwiftShader-specific pixels. Missing WebGL extensions are a separate Bot signal.

Interaction

Behavioral honeypots

Invisible DOM links and form fields that no real user reaches. Touching one is among the highest-confidence Bot signals we have. Scrapers fall in by structure.

Identity

Geo & timezone reconciliation

Compare the browser’s time zone with IP location. Differences are one piece of evidence; location alone does not make a visit a Bot.
