Claim archaeology — what has been marketed, and when
Monthly Wayback snapshots of the 3 pages listed below, read back to 2019. A number reaches this timeline only after the sentence around it was read and judged to be DataDome describing its own product. Those judgements were made by an AI model (claude-opus-5) and have not yet been checked by a person. Every one is published with the quote it was made from and the reason it was made, so you can check it against the archived page yourself. Numbers that turned out to be customer case studies, uptime SLAs or traffic-composition stats are listed further down — recorded, not published. Nothing is inferred between two dated snapshots.

Our extractor pulled these numbers out of the same snapshots. Each was held back: a number bound to a metric is not automatically the vendor claiming a capability, and treating it as one would score DataDome against something it never said.

Our test results
No sanctioned runs recorded yet.
Real-world challenge rate (passive, anonymized)
Across 9 sites detected running DataDome, this is what a default automated client met:
ServedChallengedBlocked
Challenge rate 88.9% — 95% CI 57–98% (±21pp, n=9). A wide interval means a small sample; read it accordingly.
Site identities are not published. This measures whether a vanilla client is challenged — no bypass performed.
Cited external benchmarks
- Scrapfly — DataDome bypass — reported bypass 96%Self-reported by Scrapfly, a commercial scraping/bypass API — vendor marketing figure, not independently verified (captured 2026-08-14).
- FP-Inconsistent (arXiv 2406.07647)Independent academic measurement of fingerprint inconsistencies in evasive bot traffic; analyses DataDome's detection.
- techinz/browsers-benchmarkIndependent open-source browser-automation benchmark; per-engine bypass rates vary.
We cite these rather than generating real-world bypass numbers against non-consenting production systems. Commercial-vendor figures are self-reported marketing claims, flagged as such above — treat them as the ceiling a paying bypass service advertises.
