Anura vs Clickfraud

Anura is ad fraud prevention software for identifying and filtering bots, malware, AI-assisted fraud, and human fraud from web assets. Its two detection products serve different traffic: Anura Script uses JavaScript integration to identify sophisticated invalid traffic, while Anura Direct uses a REST API for general invalid traffic. The dashboard offers traffic-quality insights, fraud-source drilldowns, configurable reports, and CSV or PDF exports. Anura IPDB is a locally deployed IP intelligence database with approximately 1 ms lookups, unlimited queries, and no usage-based fees. The product can validate leads and protect landing pages, registrations, logins, surveys, ping-post workflows, and eCommerce activity. It integrates with Google Tag Manager, WordPress, and other platforms, with custom integration development available when needed. Anura says it guarantees 99.999% accuracy when identifying bad visitors. It supports Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, YouTube, and LinkedIn, and offers automatic click blocking. The free trial lasts 15 days and requires no credit card; ongoing pricing is tailored to usage and available on request.

Clickfraud monitors website visits to identify harmful automated traffic and help protect advertising budgets on Google Ads and Yandex.Direct. Its detection combines machine-learning and neural-network analysis with behavioral factors, cluster analysis, ClientID, browser fingerprints, and mouse-movement signals. Suspicious sessions can be sent through an API to Yandex and Google so future ads can be withheld from those visitors. Plans provide website monitoring, a personal reporting account, and daily email reports. Pricing is based on total website visits, and the service says it analyzes every visit whether advertising-related or not. Setup involves adding a website domain, supplying counter details and a token for Yandex or Google, then placing generated protection code on the site. The Small plan costs $49 a month, billed daily, for up to 10,000 visits; larger listed plans cover up to 200,000 visits, while Custom pricing applies above that. A 7-day trial is available, with no free plan. The budget-savings report currently works for Yandex.Direct.
