Bidstream Data Verification and Fraud Detection Platform
C7/10March 5, 2026
WhatA tool for advertisers and ad-tech buyers that independently verifies the accuracy and provenance of location and identity signals in programmatic bidstream data, exposing fabricated or inflated data quality claims.
SignalAn industry insider confirms that ad networks routinely lie about the quality of their location data, most 'precise' location is just IP-based guessing, and per-user tracking is far harder than buyers are led to believe — meaning billions are spent on fraudulent data quality claims.
Why NowThe deprecation of third-party cookies and mobile ad ID changes (Apple ATT, Google Privacy Sandbox) have made accurate targeting harder, increasing the incentive for data sellers to fabricate quality — and increasing buyer demand for independent verification.
MarketAdvertisers spending $200B+ on programmatic ads globally who need to verify they're getting what they pay for. DoubleVerify and IAS verify ad placement but not underlying data quality/provenance in the bidstream itself.
MoatGround-truth validation dataset built by deploying known test devices and honeypot signals across geographies, creating a proprietary accuracy benchmark that improves with scale and is expensive to replicate.
