What Technical Leaders Say
“Smartbrain dropped two Python pros into our stack in 48 hours. They built a bot-detection micro-service that cut fake clicks 82%, freeing my analytics team for feature work. Zero onboarding headaches, clean pytest coverage, and seamless Git flow.”
Emily Carter
CTO
BlueCart Analytics
“Their senior dev integrated a real-time invalid-traffic filter using FastAPI, Pandas, and Kafka. Fraud losses fell from $60k to $8k per month and time-to-deploy halved. Smartbrain handled contracts, NDAs, and replacements flawlessly.”
Michael Reed
VP Engineering
VeriPay Solutions
“We needed TensorFlow expertise for viewability scoring. Smartbrain’s engineer tuned our models, lifted precision 14 pp, and automated reporting in Django. Productivity jumped and my data scientists finally sleep.”
Sophia Nguyen
Director of Data Science
StreamWave Media
“Unity ads were bleeding budget. Smartbrain supplied a Python lead who wrote a lightweight Flask service that flags suspicious installs in under 120 ms. Sprint velocity rose 28% with no extra head-count.”
David Lewis
Head of Ad Ops
PlayForge Studios
“HIPAA compliance plus fraud detection is tricky. Their engineer refactored our PySpark pipeline, implemented signature-based bot filters, and improved campaign ROI 37%. Legal loved the airtight contracts.”
Laura Bennett
Product Manager
MediTrust HealthTech
“Smartbrain provided three mid-level Python devs blended into our SCRUM in a week. They migrated our legacy Ruby anti-fraud service to async Python, handling 4× traffic with 30% fewer servers.”

Online Ad Fraud Detection Case Studies
FinTech Slashes Fraudulent Clicks 87%
Client: Series-B online lending platform.
Challenge: Their growth team was losing 30% of budget to online ad fraud detection blind spots across programmatic channels.
Solution: Two Smartbrain Python engineers embedded remotely, built a FastAPI real-time filter leveraging LightGBM and device fingerprinting. They paired with existing DevOps to deploy on Kubernetes, all within four weeks.
Result: Fraudulent clicks dropped by 87%, CAC fell 22%, and marketing secured an extra $480K in annual budget.
Media Platform Speeds Verification 5×
Client: Global video-streaming network.
Challenge: Manual log reviews delayed online ad fraud detection and led to disputed invoices.
Solution: A dedicated Python squad from Smartbrain re-architected logs into a Kafka-Spark pipeline and added TensorFlow view-fraud models. Deployment automated via GitOps.
Result: Verification operations now run 5× faster, saving 1,200 analyst hours yearly and boosting seller trust.
Retailer Saves $1.2 M Ad Budget
Client: Fortune-100 omni-channel retailer.
Challenge: Hidden bot traffic inflated retargeting spend; their in-house team lacked specialized online ad fraud detection skills.
Solution: Three Smartbrain developers integrated probabilistic click models, Redis session storage, and Grafana dashboards in six sprints.
Result: Clean traffic rate increased to 96%, protecting $1.2 M of annual ad budget and improving ROAS by 34%.
