HUMAN Launches Page Intelligence: A Game Changer for Advertisers
HUMAN has expanded its IVT (invalid traffic) detection toolkit with Page Intelligence, a new offering aimed at advertisers rather than platforms. The solution extends its post-bid analysis by measuring the time between an ad click and the landing page load, and by reconciling page-level signals with bid-request data to identify bots at points closer to a conversion. Page Intelligence is designed for post-campaign reconciliation, helping brands account for IVT impressions that should not be paid for and preventing bot-tainted data from entering CRM or CDP. It relies on the same signals as existing detection tooling (such as user agent and IP data) and adds a JavaScript tag on landing pages. This marks a shift from HUMAN’s traditional platform partnerships to an advertiser-specific product, and the offering is not currently MRC- or TAG-certified, nor a pre-bid solution.
