Dodgeball

Hi there, my name is Adam, and I’m the CEO of Dodgeball. In 2017, I joined a budding property tech startup as VP of Eng. We were running a full-service short-term rental company that digitized the entire experience from discovery to check-in to concierge to check-out. We grew, but quickly discovered the ugly side of growth - fraud. We saw that the Ubers and Googles of the world had resources to address fraud in intelligent and innovative ways, but most companies were left under-protected. Identifying the right security tools, integrating these products into various parts of your application, and adapting to constantly evolving fraud proved to be a significant challenge. Every solution created a new gap between solutions, every new feature added attack surface area, and every fraud-related eng ticket delayed product timelines. I thought there had to be a better way. Luckily, my co-founders Patrick and Andrew had experienced similar challenges with fraud and had built systems to address it. We decided to come together and build Dodgeball – fraud stack as a service – so that no company had to deal with the pain of solving for fraud again. Simply put, Dodgeball is the last integration you’ll need to worry about for fraud. The Dodgeball integration hooks into all of your product's key moments of risk (signup, sign-in, payments, etc), tracks your users, runs drag & drop automated workflows (logic, smart friction & 3rd-party integrations), and returns a response (approve, deny, review). This enables logic changes as fast as fraudsters evolve, new fraud integrations with a flip of a switch, and intelligent user experience design that meets your users at their level of risk. Like Segment for fraud prevention, try Dodgeball - fraud stack as a service. Free for developers and young startups.

What's new, developers? Well done on getting your project on the Product Hunt! 🙂 I'm going to sample this product. What motivated you to create it??

Congratulations on your launch on Product Hunt! 🎉 I'm already a big fan of Dodgeball and can't wait to see what it can do. I'm gonna recommend it to every startup founder, small business owner, and tech enthusiast I know. 🤩 It's a much needed solution to a problem that's been around for a while, and I'm sure it'll be a game-changer. Plus, I love the irony of the name – a game that's all about dodging balls is now the answer to preventing fraud! 🤣
