Pay for real people in the right places.
Bots click from hosting servers and proxy pools, and a campaign aimed at one city reaches a whole country. One lookup per impression or click says what the address is, where it is down to the city and US TV market, and whose network it's on.

Spend on people, not on servers.
Invalid traffic
Clicks and impressions come from hosting servers and datacenter proxies. Leave them out of bidding and billing.
Answered byis_hostingis_dcproxyCity and TV market targeting
A campaign bought for one metro area spills across the country. Target by city and, in the US, by DMA code.
Answered bylocation.citylocation.dma_codeBusiness audiences
B2B campaigns spend on consumers. Find the company behind an address and its type, such as a business, a school or a government.
Answered bycompanycompany.typeConversion fraud
Fake installs and leads come through residential proxies so each looks like a new user. Hold the payout until the address checks out.

Fraud and targeting signals in one answer.
The country, timezone, carrier flag, network and company answer with no key and no daily or monthly cap. Hosting and proxy flags, the city, region and DMA code, and the company's type come with every paid plan, and Pricing lists every field by plan.

Run it before you bid and before you pay.
- 01
In the bidder
Look up each bid request's address before you bid. A hosting server or a proxy gets no bid, and the city and DMA code decide which campaigns can.
- 02
In click and conversion logs
Look up the addresses behind clicks and conversions, 1,000 at a time on a paid plan. Invalid traffic comes out before you report, bill or pay out.
- 03
In audience building
Group the addresses that reach you by the company using them and its type. Business segments then come from the same answer as the fraud flags.

Common questions
Can it run inside our bidder with no call per request?
Yes. The same data comes as databases you license and query in your own systems, with no network call per address; database licenses start at $49 a month.
What is a DMA code?
The US TV market an address falls in: 602 is Chicago and 501 New York. It's location.dma_code on a paid plan, and empty outside the US.
Can we target by mobile carrier?
Yes, on a paid plan: the carrier object names the operator with its MCC and MNC. is_carrier, on every plan, says whether the address is a mobile carrier's.
Do VPN users skew city targeting?
They show up where the VPN's server is, not where they are. A paid plan's is_vpn names them, so a rule can leave VPN exits out of city and DMA campaigns.
Can we see which companies visit our site?
Yes. company names the organization using an address and its domain on every plan, and a paid plan adds its type and country. A home or mobile line names its ISP, never the person.
