Overview

See your anonymous traffic in one view

Assess traffic quality at a glance

A single traffic score showing what share of your traffic is anonymous

Understand how visitors hide

Track risk signals across the whole traffic and per visit to know exactly what masking tools visitors use

Your real audience, finally visible

See returning visitors, countries, devices, and browsers without the noise from cookie resets and fragmented sessions

Traffic Source

Spot anonymous traffic by channel, UTM, or domain

See the source behind every visit

View traffic by Channel, Referrer, or UTM Parameter with a per-source Traffic Risk score on every row.

Frequently asked questions

ShieldLabs identifies and tracks anonymous website visitors by building a persistent identifier from 300+ device, OS, browser, IP, and network signals collected on the first page load, so the same visitor stays recognized even without cookies. It works in four layers: Snippet: drop one JavaScript snippet on the site to start collecting signals on every page load; Persistent identifier: each visitor gets a precise identifier that stays stable across cleared cookies, rotated IPs, and incognito sessions; Risk score: every visit gets a risk score on the first visit, with anonymity flags for VPN, proxy, anti-detect browser, or other masking tools; Delivery: results arrive in the analytics dashboard, through the API, and via webhooks. ShieldLabs returns a stable identifier and a risk score on the first visit, so anonymous traffic stays trackable across sessions and channels with 99.9% identification accuracy.

ShieldLabs tracks visitors without cookies and scores every visit for risk, while cookie-based analytics only counts volume and loses visitors the moment cookies clear. The differences: Identity: a persistent identifier survives cleared cookies, rotated IPs, and incognito mode; cookie analytics fragments the same person into many sessions; Anonymity: ShieldLabs flags VPN traffic, anti-detect browsers, and coordinated abuse; cookie analytics cannot see them at all; Traffic quality: ShieldLabs breaks traffic down by source so clean traffic can be told apart from invalid traffic per channel and per UTM. ShieldLabs adds the layer cookie-based tools miss: who the anonymous visitor really is, and how risky each visit is, on every source and every session.

ShieldLabs runs alongside those tools rather than replacing them, adding the traffic-quality and visitor-anonymity layer most of them miss. How teams stack it: With web analytics: keep Google Analytics for volume, add ShieldLabs for anonymity share and per-source traffic quality; With click-fraud tools: keep them for PPC blocking, add ShieldLabs to see invalid traffic and anonymous visitors per channel and UTM; With internal fraud systems: feed ShieldLabs signals, scores, and High-Risk Events into your backend after login. ShieldLabs fills the gap the others leave open: a persistent identifier, a risk score, and High-Risk Events such as Multi-accounting and Account takeover across every source and every session.
