Stolen ad creative

Stolen ad creative is a brand's best-performing video or ad, lifted and re-run by a copycat, often with a synthetic voice-over, to drive paid traffic to a fake store. The fastest-growing form of the problem and the one we have deliberately not launched yet. Copycats lift a brand's best-performing video, run it through a synthetic voice, and spend real money pointing it at a fake store.

Free scan covers the live surfaces

This one isn't covered yet; we'll say when it ships, and we won't bill for it before then.

Detect→Grade→Record→Alertyour call at the end.

What we look for

The signals that make a match.

Why it's held back

Ad libraries limit how deep a search can go. We could ship a partial version that finds the first handful and misses the rest, but a scan that quietly stops is worse than one you know isn't running.

What we do meanwhile

When a clone storefront already in your record is running ads, that connection is noted on the finding.

What you get

The record, and the decision.

On the roadmap. We will say when it's live, and we won't bill for it before then.

Always

Nothing goes out at all

RIHTAN sends nothing on your behalf. Every match in this category sits in your record for your review; mark it reviewed, doubtful or authorized and the scanner remembers. A seller you mark as authorized is never raised again.

Common questions

Asked before the first scan.

Why isn't this covered yet?

Ad libraries cap how deep a search can go. We could ship a partial version that finds the first handful and misses the rest, but a scan that quietly stops is worse than one you know isn't running. It ships when we can report coverage honestly, and it isn't billed before then.

What do you do about it meanwhile?

When a clone storefront already in your record is running ads, that connection is noted on the finding.
