Why Media Buyers Are Leaving Cloaking House in 2026
Basic IP filtering doesn't cut it anymore. Here's what Cloaking House is missing and why people switch.
Cloaking House has been a popular budget cloaker since 2019. Tier-priced from $49 to $799/mo, AffBank Awards 2025 winner, large user base. But in late 2025 a steady stream of operators started moving off the platform. Here's why.
The pricing problem
Cloaking House charges per compliance page ($1-5 each, depending on tier) and gates features behind tier upgrades. If you run 20 flows, each needing a unique compliance page, you're paying tier price plus pages. The 'cheap' tier ($49) isn't cheap once you actually use it.
Overcloak: one flat price ($97/mo locked forever for founder seats, $150/mo public after), unlimited flows, unlimited compliance pages, full feature set.
The detection problem
Cloaking House emphasizes IP-based filtering with niche databases. It works for the basics — Facebook reviewer IP, datacenter detection. But it doesn't include:
- Browser fingerprinting (canvas, WebGL, audio)
- TLS / JA3 fingerprinting
- Behavioral analysis (mouse/scroll patterns)
- Crowd-sourced blacklist (network-effect detection)
Modern reviewers route through residential proxies. IP-only cloaking misses them.
The migration path
If you're moving from Cloaking House to Overcloak:
- 1Export your flows from Cloaking House (offer URL, compliance page URL, geo rules).
- 2Re-create in Overcloak. We support the same rule set.
- 3Re-generate compliance pages with our AI. They'll be unique HTML, not template-clones.
- 4Re-point your domains to overcloak. CNAME change takes 5-10 min to propagate.
- 5Run both in parallel for 24 hours, compare detection results in the live feeds, then switch fully.
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.
