01 / SIGNAL

How invalid traffic shows up on X Ads (Twitter).

See which X Ads (Twitter) publishers, placements and sub-sources send real clicks versus bots, attributed via X Ads (Twitter)’s own tracking tokens and scored 0–100 per source.

02 / SCORED

Pinpoint the bot publishers & placements in X Ads (Twitter).

X Ads (Twitter) itself isn't the problem — bots and invalid traffic concentrate in a handful of its sub-sources: the publisher, site or zone, and the placement or widget within it. So we roll the score up by those X Ads (Twitter) tokens, not by creative (which says nothing about whether a click was human).

04 / DETECTION

How the detection works.

100+
Scale

Data points → one score

Every visit is weighed against more than a hundred independent data points and reduced to a single, sortable 0–100 quality score.

1 verdict
Depth

Many angles, combined

Each data point is combined rather than checked in isolation, so a genuine human almost never trips enough of them to be flagged — and bots that beat one rarely beat the rest.

0–100
Model

Proprietary, not a black box

The detection model is ours and stays that way. What you get is a clear verdict on every visit — not a single brittle rule you can game, and not an unexplained number you can't act on.

per source
Action

Pinned to the source

Every verdict maps to the campaign, publisher and placement that sent the click — so you know exactly which source to cut.
