We catch the CTV ad fraud others miss.

Fraud isn't getting caught because it doesn't look like fraud anymore. Hard Check runs after industry-standard verification and catches what still gets through.

The fraud costing advertisers money isn't trying to look fraudulent. It's trying to look exactly like a customer.

Hard Check looks for traffic that appears legitimate until you compare where it came from, how it behaves, and where it says it is. A VPN endpoint in Los Angeles distributing impressions to thousands of devices across the country can pass every dashboard check until you look at all three together.

Side-by-side comparison: standard tools versus Hard Check showing red-flagged invalid traffic patterns

46,000 impressions looked legitimate until they weren't.

Bought 250,000
Passed verification 247,000
Passed Hard Check 201,000

Industry-standard verification removed 3,000 impressions. Hard Check removed another 46,000 that had already passed the first check.

CTV ad fraud prevention as a second layer of verification, not a replacement for the first.

Your campaigns still run through industry-standard verification. Hard Check operates after that, focused on the invalid traffic that already passed through.

The protection running on your campaign today is sharper than it was last month.

Detection models update continuously as new VPN endpoints, bot patterns, and spoofing techniques appear across the platform.

If we blocked it, you don't pay for it.

If an impression never had a chance of becoming a customer, it never becomes part of your reporting either. What you see in GammaBurst is what actually ran on real screens in real households.

Your numbers stop needing an explanation.

Your CPA gets honest

Fraud disappears from the denominator, so the cost of acquiring a customer starts reflecting what actually happened.

Household reach starts meaning what it says

Unique households are actually unique instead of the same VPN endpoint appearing hundreds of times.

Your team stops reconciling

Reporting and delivery agree, so time goes into improving campaigns instead of explaining spreadsheets.

CTV ad fraud prevention, answered.

What is CTV ad fraud?

CTV ad fraud is invalid connected-TV traffic, such as spoofed traffic, VPN distribution, and bot farms, that quietly drains streaming budgets by charging advertisers for impressions that never reached a real household.

How is Hard Check different from standard verification?

Hard Check runs after industry-standard verification as a second layer, catching the spoofed traffic, VPN distribution, and bot farms that already passed through rather than duplicating what the industry already does well.

Do I pay for blocked impressions?

No, because blocked impressions never appear in your GammaBurst delivery reporting, so you only pay for impressions that ran on real screens in real households.
