03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Traffic estimate 2026-09: the top channel is direct at 41.4%, followed by organic search at about 44% (estimated from rank) and referrals at about 9%; the channels the founder filled in on Revenue record are blog, newsletter, SEO, LinkedIn, and X. The website blog has 260 articles in total, with almost one technical article a day (DNS, STIX, TAXII, DMARC, and more) from 2026-09-30 to 10-23. Many of the search terms Traffic estimate captured are unrelated adult sites and piracy site names, which suggests a lot of the search traffic is long-tail "is this site malicious" lookups; the share that converts to paid is unknown. Existing users are retained mainly through API integrations.

Channel share, initial acquisition, and growth drivers are distinct; correlation does not imply proven causation.
