Add to Chrome — It's FreeHow It Works
Start analyzing ads in three simple steps
Activate
Click the AdStackLens icon in your browser toolbar on any webpage.
Inspect
Hover over any ad element to instantly see the ad network, size, and serving details.
Analyze
Open the detail panel to explore Prebid bids, GPT slot config, targeting key-values, and iframe chains.
Features
Two detection layers, one complete picture
Dual Detection Engine
Two complementary detection layers working together — CSS selector matching finds ad containers on the page, while SDK introspection pulls live data directly from ad tech APIs.
- ✓ CSS selectors detect AdSense, Ad Manager, Amazon APS, Criteo, and more
- ✓ SDK layer reads runtime objects like pbjs, googletag, and apstag
- ✓ Combined results give you the complete picture no single method can
Deep SDK Analysis
Go beyond surface-level detection. AdStackLens reads live data from the three major programmatic SDKs to show you exactly what's happening behind every ad slot.
- ✓ Prebid.js — bid responses, CPMs, bidder names, ad server targeting
- ✓ Google Publisher Tag — slot paths, sizes, targeting key-values, out-of-page config
- ✓ Amazon APS — slot IDs, sizes, and targeting parameters
Interactive Inspect Mode
Hover over any ad element to highlight it and automatically select it in the detail panel, where you can review the full ad stack info — no clicks needed.
Iframe Hierarchy
Visualize nested iframe structures and trace ad serving chains across cross-origin frames in a clear tree view.
Customizable Detection
Add your own CSS selectors to detect custom ad services. Import and export configurations to share across teams.
Size Filtering
Set a minimum size threshold to exclude small ad elements from detection results, keeping your view focused on the ads that matter.
