    Blockthrough is the market leader in adblock revenue recovery! We're helping the world's largest media brands recover the revenue they are losing due to adblocking—without interrupting their users.

    Through our close-knit culture, transparent leadership, competitive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, and a focus on optimal work-life balance, we're proud to be a "Great Place to Work" certified employer, Canada's 11th fastest growing company ranked by the Globe and Mail, and recipient of the 2021 Deloitte Companies-to-Watch award.

    We work with some of the biggest publishers in the world, we’re backed by some of the brightest minds in the industry, and we’re looking for curious and analytical team players who like to win!

    Our Product

    Our product restores publishers’ existing website monetization technologies for adblock users who consent to it, while making sure that all ads adhere to the lighter, stricter Acceptable Ads standard, a happy middle ground for users and publishers. Users also have the ability to opt out if they prefer no ads at all.

    Through a complex cloud-based system, we use sophisticated algorithms and real-time analysis to determine which ads qualify for an optimal user experience, all in the time it takes for a website to load. We process vast numbers of requests, processing tens of billions of ad impressions per month.
