Affordable click-fraud monitoring and reporting.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is ValidVisit a good Polygraph alternative?+
If you want a transparent, explainable view of invalid traffic — every visit weighed against 100+ independent data points and scored 0–100, with the breakdown laid out so you can audit and defend it, plus coverage of native/push/pop networks — ValidVisit is a strong complement or alternative. Polygraph is detection-focused rather than an automated blocker — the same gap ValidVisit has today — so the choice comes down to coverage and transparency: native/push/pop attribution and an auditable 0–100 score on every visit.
What does ValidVisit do that Polygraph typically doesn’t?+
Attribution across 74 ad-network tracking tokens — including the native, push and pop channels where invalid traffic concentrates — with a single lightweight script and nothing added to your click path, plus the auditable 0–100 score on every visit.
Where is Polygraph stronger?+
Affordable click-fraud monitoring and reporting.
Can I run both?+
Yes — they don’t conflict: ValidVisit adds transparent per-visit scoring and attribution across native, push and pop alongside Polygraph’s detection.
