NEW YORK, May 29, 2026: The Datadome bot protection solution consistently ranks #1 in the G2 Grid® Report for Bot Detection and Mitigation for being the market leader in providing AI-powered online fraud and bot management.

Also named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™ for Bot Management Software with the highest overall score for current offering, DataDome is the most advanced solution on the market.

Using a proactive, automated security approach to protect websites, apps, and APIs in real time, agentic commerce has never been easier, and that's why it receives the highest overall score among products in the market.

In addition to that, DataDome is noted to be a leader in the G2 Grid® Report for Fraud Detection and the Momentum Grid® Report for Fraud Detection. The company is also listed as the top leader in G2’s Bot Detection and Mitigation Implementation, Relationship, and Usability indices.

Those three are the pillars of vendor measurement, and the leading scores highlight the company's dedication to excelling at customer service, the ease of use of the Bot Protect service, and the overall value of the product.

With now over 209 reviews on G2 from cybersecurity and IT experts, achieving a 4.8/5 stars overall, 95% report customer satisfaction with ease of use, 96% state customer satisfaction with the quality of the support, and 95% praise the ease of administration.

The positive reviews translate to 100% of users rating DataDome 4 to 5 stars. One of the most recent reviews from a verified DataDome current user in broadcast media stated, "We have been a DataDome customer since 2023, and it has been genuinely game‑changing for us. It protects key endpoints and services against malicious traffic and automated bots, and the initial setup was straightforward. The dashboards and detection models provide clear, real‑time visibility into our traffic and ongoing attacks. Their combination of AI-driven detection and customizable rules gives us granular control across different services and devices. Overall, the product and the support team have been excellent, especially considering we previously had no effective way to manage bot traffic."

Benjamin Fabre, co-founder and CEO of DataDome, also commented on LinkedIn, "This summer (2025), DataDome is the most recognized and trusted cyberfraud protection platform on G2 — leading across 4 key categories: Bot Protection, DDoS Protection, Fraud Detection, and Web Security.

It’s a strong signal that innovation, execution, and customer partnership are paying off. A huge thank you to our customers for your trust, feedback, and support. We’re just getting started."

DataDome's award-winning bot and online fraud solution effectively detects, tracks, and manages bot attacks on websites, APIs, and mobile apps, with its multi-layered AI detection engine that auto-adapts to evolving threats (<50 ms) using client- and server-side signals.

Putting DataDome ahead of legacy solutions, it analyzes the intent of every request. That blocks fraud before it happens, and auto-scaling to 200x your average traffic in <1 minute with 30+ global PoPs.

Hundreds of enterprises trust DataDome to protect from scraping, payment fraud, DDoS, credential stuffing, account takeover, and more.

Today's news follows the recent announcement from the co-founder and CEO, Benjamin Fabre, who proudly announced the partnership with Botify, an enterprise-level, AI-powered SEO platform designed to maximize organic search visibility and website performance.

Benjamin said, "AI bot traffic to retail and e-commerce sites has skyrocketed, already outpacing consumer adoption. Most businesses are responding by adding a fraud filter or tightening payment security, which isn't enough.

Successful agentic commerce requires orchestration across the full AI ecosystem. An AI agent that can't discover and index your catalog never reaches conversion, and one you can't identify or verify creates risk that you can't measure. Solving one without the other just shifts where the risk sits.

This is why we're partnering with Botify. Botify ensures AI agents can properly access and consume your content. DataDome determines which of those agents should be trusted. Together, we cover the full agentic journey from discovery to transaction, so legitimate agents move through without friction and malicious ones don't."

DataDome has also recently launched its Virtual Machine (VM) obfuscation for DataDome Device Check & Slider, its most significant advancement in client-side protection to date, allowing it to execute readable detection logic inside a custom virtual machine instead of a browser.

The detection code transforms into bytecode interpreted at runtime, and the complexity and cost for reverse engineering for humans and AI systems increase.

In combination with dynamic code regeneration and WebAssembly, the service provides a layered client-side defense designed for AI agent and bot management.
