Opticks

Opticks logo on the cover of the review

The pricing page says Lite includes up to 10k monthly scans and the plan is detection-only. Opticks’ homepage says it detects up to 30 types of invalid traffic, while its glossary says more than 30; those descriptions differ.

For media buyers assessing paid traffic, the practical question is how those stated controls and limits fit their own measurement and compliance needs.

Lite, Pro, and Max set scan allowances

Opticks’ pricing pages list these plan terms, checked on 2026-10-31.

  • Lite: €50 per month plus taxes, up to 10k monthly scans, one user.
  • Pro: €200 per month plus taxes, up to 100k monthly scans, five users.
  • Max: €699 per month plus taxes, up to 300k monthly scans, 10 users.
  • Custom: the pricing page lists custom monthly scans and users.
  • Trial: the site lists a 7-day free trial with no credit card required.

Monthly prices include taxes separately

Opticks lists three named paid plans, with prices stated before taxes. Lite is detection-only, while Pro adds automated prevention in supported advertising channels. The plan choice therefore changes the listed control scope, not only the scan allowance.

Custom plans offer custom monthly scans and users.

Trial descriptions are consistent on the no-card condition: the homepage lists a 7-day free trial, and the glossary says cancellation is available anytime. The blog says every plan includes a 7-day trial with full visibility and no credit card required. Ask what “full visibility” includes before treating the trial as equivalent to a paid plan.

Invalid traffic detection spans listed signals

Opticks describes its software as detecting and preventing click fraud, bots, and invalid traffic across digital channels. Its glossary identifies device fingerprinting as one signal used to distinguish real users from bots and emulators. The vendor also describes its specialty as detecting sophisticated invalid traffic.

The stated category count differs by source: the homepage says “up to 30” types, while the glossary says “more than 30.” These are vendor descriptions, not independent validation of detection coverage. The service is also presented as analyzing and filtering invalid traffic across paid advertising channels.

The diagram connects invalid-traffic detection with fraud evidence reports.

JavaScript tag and Google Tag Manager

Opticks describes installation through Google Tag Manager or a JavaScript tag. Its blog says the tag is lightweight and setup takes under 5 minutes without a developer. Those are the provider’s setup claims.

The vendor describes a traffic-quality view grouped by channel, UTM, device, and geography.

Opticks says it automatically generates fraud evidence reports for refund or credit claims with ad networks. Its blog specifically describes refund-ready reports for Google Ads and Meta Ads. Confirm which report fields and claim processes apply to the channels used in your account.

The diagram shows the stated setup method and the traffic-quality view.

Opticks Sensor and Opticksid end sessions

Opticks states that Opticks Sensor and Opticksid expire at the end of a session. Before registering, ask how these session-expiring identifiers relate to the traffic analysis and reporting described on the product pages.

The provider says it aims to comply with GDPR, conducted a Data Protection Impact Assessment, keeps its servers within the EU, and appointed a Data Protection Officer. Ask how those statements apply to the specific implementation and what customer-facing disclosure is expected. Opticks says clients need to inform website users about its technology and recommends explaining its use in the cookies policy.

Website terms leave service conditions separate

Use of the website is subject to applicable regulations, the legal notice, and other policies. Access may be disabled without prior notice if Opticks believes a user violated website policies or applicable regulations.

The notice allows temporary service suspension for technical, security, or maintenance reasons, and says suspension creates no right to compensation or indemnification. It also reserves prospective changes to website terms and policies, rather than retroactive application.

  • Lite is detection-only; prevention is listed under Pro, not Lite.
  • Paid plans specify monthly scan caps and user counts; Custom plans specify custom scans.
  • The legal notice permits access disabling without prior notice under its stated conditions.
  • Suspension does not create a compensation or indemnification right under the notice.
  • Clients are told to inform website users about Opticks technology.

Several details are missing; they are listed under What we could not confirm.

Plan features follow stated access tiers

Opticks’ plan descriptions and support pages list the following inclusions.

  • Lite combines detection with analytics, conversion analysis, custom alerts, and a watchlist.
  • Pro lists detection and prevention, including automated prevention in supported Google, Meta, Microsoft, and TikTok channels.
  • Max includes custom click-by-click reports and API integration.
  • Opticks describes a unified traffic-quality view grouped by channel, UTM, device, and geography.
  • Lite includes email and chat support, while Opticks’ support site provides a knowledge base.

These are stated plan features, not independent evidence of detection performance or reporting outcomes. Before choosing a tier, match its listed controls and support options to the work your team needs covered.

Advertisers assessing paid traffic quality

Opticks presents its service and ad-fraud resources to advertisers, including analysis and filtering of invalid traffic across paid advertising channels. A buyer assessing traffic quality could compare those stated functions with the channels and reporting dimensions relevant to their own campaigns.

Opticks describes a unified view by channel, UTM, device, and geography, while its Pro plan lists prevention in supported advertising channels. Those details give buyers specific areas to check against their measurement needs before selecting a plan.

Advertising offers may face legal, age, or regional restrictions. Check network, platform, and local rules; this is not legal or financial advice.

Compare fraud tools by scan and control scope

When comparing fraud tools, check how each provider defines scans and separates detection from prevention. Compare reporting, integrations, privacy terms, support, and billing conditions against the scope your operation requires. Ask providers to define any limits in writing before committing.

What we could not confirm

  • Detection validation: independent accuracy evidence and false-positive handling.
  • Scan mechanics: scan consumption and unused-scan carryover.
  • Billing: renewal, cancellation, refunds, and overage charges.
  • Data handling: retention periods, deletion controls, and processing roles.
  • Integration scope: API documentation, supported events, and other channel coverage.
  • Prevention operation: review controls, reversibility, and prevented-traffic reporting.
  • Support terms: response targets, availability, and plan-specific scope.
  • Contract terms: service levels and dispute process.

Questions on scan caps and prevention

Is Lite detection-only?

Yes. Opticks describes Lite as detection-only, with analytics, conversion analysis, custom alerts, and a watchlist included. Buyers needing automated prevention should distinguish that scope from Pro’s listed prevention controls before choosing between the plans.

Which channels have automated prevention?

Opticks lists automated prevention in supported Google, Meta, Microsoft, and TikTok channels under Pro. The description qualifies those channels as supported; ask which specific account and campaign configurations are covered before relying on the stated control.

What do Custom plans mean?

What do Custom plans mean? Custom plans mean plans with custom monthly scans, according to Opticks’ homepage; the homepage describes its Custom plans as offering monthly scans that are custom. That wording comes from Opticks’ homepage.

How does installation work?

Opticks says installation takes less than five minutes using Google Tag Manager or a JavaScript tag. This is the provider’s stated installation route and timing; confirm the implementation requirements for your own site before planning deployment.

What support is listed for Lite?

Opticks lists email and chat support on Lite, and its support site provides a knowledge base. Buyers should confirm which support channels apply to their intended plan and what response arrangements are included.

What disclosure does Opticks ask customers to make?

Opticks states that clients need to inform website users about its technology. Ask what customer-facing wording the provider expects and how it applies to your implementation before adding the technology to a website.

Proceed after plan conditions are clear

Fits if… the listed detection or prevention scope matches your intended use, and the provider answers your questions about implementation and customer disclosure.

Probably not if… your decision requires settled scan mechanics, billing terms, or product-level data-handling details before purchase.

Main risk… the public plan descriptions establish feature tiers, but not the operating and contract conditions needed to assess them fully. Obtain those terms in writing before proceeding.
