Bot Detection API

Stop automated traffic before it impacts your business. Detect bots, scrapers, and headless browsers in real-time with sub-20ms latency.

What We Detect

Comprehensive bot detection covering all major attack vectors and automated traffic patterns.

Headless Browsers

Detect Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, and other automation frameworks used for scraping and testing.

Credential Stuffing Bots

Identify automated login attempts using stolen credentials from datacenter IPs and bot networks.

Scraping Bots

Stop content theft and price scraping with datacenter IP detection and behavioral analysis.

Bot Attacks

Protect against DDoS, inventory hoarding, spam, and other coordinated bot campaigns.

Fake Traffic

Filter out fake clicks, impressions, and engagement from bot farms and click fraud operations.

Automated Traffic

Identify any non-human traffic including crawlers, monitors, and automated testing tools.

How It Works

Multi-layered detection combining IP intelligence, network analysis, and behavioral signals.

1

IP Type Detection

Identify datacenter IPs vs. residential connections. Bots typically operate from cloud providers and hosting networks.

2

Proxy & VPN Detection

Detect commercial VPNs, proxies, and anonymizers commonly used to hide bot traffic origins.

3

Tor Exit Node Detection

Identify Tor network exit nodes used for anonymity and frequently abused by malicious actors.

4

ASN Analysis

Analyze Autonomous System Numbers to identify known bot networks and suspicious hosting providers.

5

Connection Type Analysis

Examine connection characteristics and patterns that distinguish automated traffic from human users.
