To those of you who are new, welcome! And to those who have been here for a while, thanks as always for your support. Let's dive in 👇
🎨 A Fresh New Look
The platform now looks like what it does. We've rebuilt the interface from the ground up: a cleaner design, a full-height sidebar, and a workspace selector that's the first thing you see. Switching between workspaces, websites, and ad accounts is faster, and a new date picker lets you move across date ranges from any page without losing your place. Nothing you've configured changes, only how it feels to use every day.
🧩 Your Protection Metrics, Right Inside Google Ads
Our new Chrome extension brings ClickGuard data into Google Ads, so you don't have to switch tabs to check it. Once installed, it adds ClickGuard columns to your Campaign Performance tables: bad clicks, invalid traffic rate, blocked sources, and estimated ad waste prevented, sitting right next to your standard metrics. It works on both standard and manager (MCC) accounts. Now the protection stats live where you already spend your time.
You can now keep ClickGuard watching your traffic without it excluding its sources. In Monitoring Mode, detection runs exactly as it normally would, flagging invalid clicks, bots, and wasteful sources in real time, but the system holds off on the exclusion actions that block those sources from your campaigns. It's built for anyone who wants full visibility before committing to blocking, or who needs to see what would be excluded before it happens. Turn it on, watch the data, and switch protection on when you're ready.
