What does it do?

DataDome creates new revenue lines for websites by protecting their content from bots, and by enabling them to monetize non-sensitive data through the first Data Marketplace dedicated to connecting content producers and big data companies.

Why do we need it?

Big data companies harvest and resell data from online businesses who get little or nothing in return. The DataDome marketplace enables website owners and big data companies to easily enter commercial agreements about the use of such data.

Who is it for?

DataDome helps website owners protect business-critical content from web scraping, but also to make available and monetize non-sensitive data. Big data companies, on their side, can access structured data legally and cost-effectively.

What makes it stand out from the crowd?

There are companies that offer network-layer bot detection and protection solutions, but their approach is focused on blocking bad bots from accessing web servers. DataDome instead creates opportunities for mutually beneficial agreements.

What’s next?

Like any marketplace, DataDome’s success depends on its ability to attract a critical mass of website owners offering valuable data. The solution is therefore offered as a freemium model, helping website owners discover the potential.
