A 24-agent parallel probe that detects and classifies location-, hardware- and cookie-based price discrimination in real time.
Price discrimination is something shoppers suspect but cannot prove. JACOBI attacks that gap by firing 24 simultaneous vantage points — different locations, devices and cookie states — at the same page and reading the differences. At a hackathon built around web data infrastructure, that is a far deeper answer to what the platform is for than a shallow integration. The parallel design also explains itself in one breath, which counts when judging time is short.
