Independently Cryptographically Verified • Zero Screenshots Allowed

The Verified Growth Layer for Internet Businesses.

Anyone can photoshop an ad dashboard. Nobody can forge a SHA-256 HMAC cryptographic signature. Connect Meta Ads, Shopify, and Stripe to replace unverified marketing claims with independent proof, tamper-evident trust badges, and anonymized cohort benchmarks.

Ad Waste & MER Leakage Simulator

How much ad spend are you burning on phantom ROAS?

Ad platforms optimize for gross checkout clicks. They ignore returns, chargebacks, and payment failures. Calculate your true Blended Marketing Efficiency Ratio (MER) in real time.

Platforms take credit for gross orders before return shipping occurs. When you scale ad budgets, ad algorithms unintentionally bid on customer cohorts that return up to 25% of merchandise.

Architecture & Workflow

The Verified Credibility Flywheel

From raw API data to immutable public proof in three automated steps. Zero manual spreadsheets, zero screenshot fraud.

2-Minute OAuth

Connect Data Sources

Securely link Meta Ads, Shopify, and Stripe through official read-only APIs. Credentials are encrypted in our AES-256-GCM tenant vault with 16-byte random IVs and AAD binding.

Read-only scopes (ads_read, read_orders)

Zero write permissions requested

SHA-256 Hash

Cryptographic Deduplication

Our engine automatically nets out customer refunds, chargebacks, and cancellations. Every sync ledger entry is cryptographically hashed with SHA-256 to ensure complete tamper-evidence.

True Blended MER calculated

Dynamic 0–100 credibility scoring

Monetize Proof

Monetize Public Credibility

Embed vector SVG badges onto your storefront to lift checkout completion. Showcase verified managed ad spend in agency pitches and benchmark against peers with N ≥ 10 privacy.

+18% to +24% checkout conversion lift

Rank on anti-gaming leaderboards

Built for Every Ecosystem Participant

Engineered for Brands, Agencies & Investors

Direct-to-Consumer & Omnichannel Brands

Turn Unverified Claims into Checkout Lift

Avg. Lift+18.5% CVR

Eliminate Shopper Skepticism

First-time shoppers are suspicious of unknown brands. A tamper-evident verification badge proves your brand is an authentic high-volume operator.

Differential Privacy Moat

Benchmark your MER, CAC, and refund rate against your exact sub-cohort. N ≥ 10 differential privacy mathematically prevents competitors from back-calculating your sales.

Zero-Effort Continuous Audit

Automatic daily sync keeps your metrics verified in the background. If you ever disconnect, historical stamps remain immutable while future periods fail safe.

The Trust Dilemma

Screenshots vs. CheckAds Cryptographic Truth

Why modern internet commerce is abandoning static screenshots in favor of independently verifiable API provenance.

Evaluation Dimension

Unverified Screenshots

CheckAds Verified Protocol

Data Source & Authenticity

Unverified Screenshots:Client dashboard screenshot, easily manipulated via browser 'Inspect Element' or Canva.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Direct read-only API connection via OAuth 2.0 (Meta Ads v21.0, Shopify GraphQL, Stripe REST).

Cryptographic Tamper-Evidence

Unverified Screenshots:None. Zero provenance or digital signature. Stale PNGs can be reused indefinitely.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Every sync payload is hashed with SHA-256 HMAC and anchored into an immutable audit ledger.

Refunds, Returns & Chargebacks

Unverified Screenshots:Ignored. Self-reported GMV takes credit for refunded and disputed orders.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Automatically deducted. True Blended MER calculated exclusively against net settled cash.

Multi-Currency Normalization

Unverified Screenshots:Mixed currencies treated identically without exchange rate adjustment.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Standardized ISO normalization supporting USD, EUR, GBP, and CAD conversions.

Privacy & Leak Prevention

Unverified Screenshots:All-or-nothing: either show your entire dashboard or nothing at all.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Zero-leak differential privacy. Choose Public, Standardized Range, or Masked with N ≥ 10 protection.

Continuous Sync & Lifecycle

Unverified Screenshots:Static snapshot frozen at peak performance month, hiding subsequent attribution decay.

CheckAds Verified Protocol:Continuous automated daily sync. Disconnections immediately fail safe to UNAVAILABLE.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know

Transparent answers regarding data security, privacy guarantees, and integration lifecycle.

No. CheckAds operates strictly under minimal read-only OAuth 2.0 scopes (ads_read for Meta, read_orders for Shopify, and read_charges for Stripe). It is architecturally impossible for our system to alter campaigns, adjust budgets, pause ads, or modify your store catalog. All tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM with tenant-bound authentication data.
