AntiAdBlock Core vs Snigel
AntiAdBlock Core vs Snigel
A self-serve detection script vs a managed header-bidding yield platform.
Snigel is an ad-management and header-bidding company whose proprietary AdEngine powers 200+ publishers. Its anti-adblock feature detects blockers and reinserts Acceptable-Ads-compliant ads, which Snigel reports lifts revenue by 10%+ on average.
Like other managed-yield partners, anti-adblock is a sub-feature of a sales-led platform: pricing isn't public, onboarding goes through an account team, and the recovery model is reinsertion, which uBlock Origin and uBlock Origin Lite largely ignore. AntiAdBlock Core is a focused, self-serve detection script with flat public pricing that you install yourself.
| Feature | Snigel | AntiAdBlock Core |
|---|---|---|
| Transparent public pricing | Managed; no public price | Public: every tier listed ($0–$29.99/mo) |
| Free plan | No self-serve free tier | Yes, 10k requests/mo, full detection engine |
| Detection vectors | Reinsertion-based; vectors not disclosed | multiple independent signals, voted in real time |
| uBlock Origin Lite (Chrome MV3) | Acceptable Ads largely ignored by uBO/uBOL | Detected: Basic, Optimal & Complete |
| Time to first detection | Account-managed onboarding | ~60 seconds, one async script tag |
| Domain-locked + signed script | Not advertised | Yes, origin-pinned, tamper-proof |
| Real-time analytics | Adblock metrics inside AdEngine | Per-detector breakdown + revenue model |
| GDPR: no tracking cookies | Acceptable Ads framework; consent varies | No tracking cookies, no visitor IDs, daily aggregates |

Where we win
Install it yourself in ~60 seconds
Snigel's anti-adblock comes with managed onboarding through an account team. AntiAdBlock Core is self-serve: register, verify your domain, paste one async tag. No sales call.
Transparent pricing you can read today
Snigel does not publish pricing. AntiAdBlock Core lists every tier on the pricing page, from $0 to a fixed top tier, so you can budget before committing.
Active detection beyond reinsertion
Reinsertion via Acceptable Ads does little against uBlock Origin Lite. Our multi-signal engine detects uBOL on MV3 and runs a recovery flow regardless of the blocker, on top of whatever yield stack you already run, Snigel included.
The verdict
Choose Snigel if you want a managed header-bidding partner to run your whole display stack and treat anti-adblock as part of that yield deal. Choose AntiAdBlock Core if you want transparent flat pricing, MV3-grade detection and a self-serve install you can add to any existing setup. Start free and measure recovery first.
