New York and Munich – October 07, 2026 -- FouAnalytics and fraud0 have deepened their partnership to roll out an AI agent that automatically recovers wasted Google Ads spend for brand advertisers worldwide.
Pharmaceutical company Uriach recovers $28,000 in Google Ads spend within three months
Uriach used fraud0's AI for Google Ads Refunds to claw back the sum from invalid traffic and billing errors on its Google Ads campaigns, according to the companies. The tool has already audited more than $2 billion in digital advertising spend across industries, with clients including HelloFresh, Condor, ABOUT YOU and the Otto Group.
Google's platform restrictions have kept third-party measurement out of search and YouTube ads
Google policy bars third-party javascript instrumentation on properties such as search ads, YouTube ads and Performance Max, according to Dr. Augustine Fou, CEO of FouAnalytics. He said legacy verification vendors claiming to measure these channels were simply handed invalid-traffic, viewability and brand-safety data by Google itself, without running their own tracking code.
"This partnership marks a milestone in advancing greater transparency and accountability in Google Ads, enabling advertisers to recover losses from invalid traffic, false clicks, out-of-compliance ads, billing errors and platform overcharges," Fou said.
fraud0 operates as a Google-certified Click Tracker working directly with Google's Click Quality team
That certification allows fraud0 to investigate suspicious activity and resolve refund claims in cooperation with Google, while its AI agent compiles the required evidence and manages the recovery process end to end.
Advertisers activate the tool by adding a single JavaScript tag and connecting their Google Ads account
Once installed, the AI agent monitors traffic continuously and automates the refund workflow in the background. Beyond recovery, fraud0 also applies placement blocking and audience exclusions to flag recurring invalid-traffic sources and prevent future ad spend waste.
"Such a pleasure to be working with Dr. Augustine Fou, who has been on the frontlines of fraud detection for decades. We're excited to roll out this new capability to even more customers globally," said Tilman Pfeiffer, CEO of fraud0.
