The problem
Residential and mobile proxies get past controls built on IP lists.
- The traffic looks like an ordinary household or phone, so a list has little to say about it.
- A bare yes-or-no flag tells the analyst little about how far to trust it.
- Operators pay in promotional budget lost to linked accounts, in analyst time, and in genuine players caught by mistake.
What we are building
- Beyond the flag. Underlayer is being built to show which architecture is likely behind a connection, not just whether it is flagged.
- Honest about uncertainty. The aim is a calibrated probability with every answer. When the evidence is not enough, the system is designed to say “undetermined” instead of guessing.
- Built for the analyst. Answers are designed to come with an explanation a person can read.
How we work with you
Underlayer is not an off-the-shelf product. Each pilot will be shaped around the company.
- We start from your risk team. Its priorities, its tools and the problems it wants solved.
- We shape it together. The work fits your stack and your processes, not the other way round.
- Your team stays in charge. Underlayer informs. Your analysts decide.
Technical details are shared under mutual NDA, at pilot stage.
What sets us apart
- Tailored, not off the shelf. Each pilot will be built around one company’s risk team.
- Designed to add to your stack. Underlayer is meant to work with your existing anti-fraud tools, not replace them.
- Designed to say when it doesn’t know. “Undetermined” is a real answer, not a failure.
- Designed to explain itself. The goal is that an analyst can see why an answer was given, and decide what to do with it.
What it answers
Input Underlayer Answer for the analyst
- What is likely behind this connection?
- How likely is it?
- Why?
- Or: undetermined.
Problems we are working on
- Proxy and network intelligence
- Multi-account detection
- Bonus abuse rings
- Coordinated betting
Project status
Underlayer is in development and is not yet a commercial product. We have no validated results to share yet. We are looking for companies to build a tailored pilot with.
