Adspect vs Overcloak: Full Comparison for Media Buyers
Same detection quality, 5x lower price. Here's the honest breakdown of both platforms.
Adspect has been the gold-standard cloaking platform for media buyers since 2018. It works. The detection is solid. The dashboard is mature. The price — $499/mo for the Pro plan — has stayed unchanged through inflation.
Overcloak launched in 2026 with one explicit goal: same filtering quality at a fraction of the price. We're not the first cheap cloaker — there are dozens of $20-50/mo tools that don't work. We're trying to be the first cheap one that actually does.
Here's the honest breakdown.
Pricing
Adspect: $99/mo Starter, $299/mo Standard, $499/mo Pro. Price increased twice since 2022.
Overcloak: $97/mo, locked forever for the first 50 customers. After that the price moves to $150/mo for new customers — but yours stays. No tiers. Full feature set on every plan.
Detection layers
Adspect: ~9 layers including IP intel, fingerprinting, TLS, behavioral. Mature, refined.
Overcloak: 11 layers. We added 'crowd-sourced global blacklist' (every blocked IP across all customers feeds the blacklist) and 'reviewer IP intelligence' (hardcoded Meta/Google/GeoEdge/IAS ranges for instant 0ms blocks). Both are net additions to what Adspect offers.
Compliance pages
Adspect: included in plan, AI-generated, decent quality. Their template variety is solid.
Overcloak: AI-generated per niche (health, finance, tech, news, fitness), unique HTML per request. Unlimited generation included.
Tracking and conversions
Adspect: postback URL + Facebook Pixel + Google Conversion. Solid.
Overcloak: same + Native CAPI / Enhanced Conversions integration with click_id forwarding. Marginal advantage.
Crypto payment
Adspect: card only.
Overcloak: card + USDT, BTC, ETH via NOWPayments. Important if you want anonymity or operate from a country where card processing is hostile.
API access
Adspect: API access on Pro tier ($499) only.
Overcloak: full API access included at $97. Same scope.
Where Adspect is still ahead
- Brand recognition — Adspect is what every affiliate forum recommends. Overcloak is new.
- Tutorial/community — Adspect has YouTube tutorials, Telegram groups, and 7 years of forum threads. Overcloak doesn't yet.
- Mature dashboard — Adspect's dashboard has been refined over 7 years. Ours is 6 months old.
When to switch
If you're paying Adspect Pro ($499/mo) and primarily using it for filtering and tracking, switching to Overcloak saves $402/mo with no detection quality loss. The cost of switching is the time to migrate flows — 30 minutes per flow if you have a clean spreadsheet of your current setup.
If you depend on a specific Adspect feature we don't have yet, stay. We add features regularly. Tell us what you need.
Stop running cloaking on duct tape.
Overcloak ships the 11-layer detection stack described above out of the box. $97/mo locked forever for the first 50 customers — only 13 founder seats left.
