Your smart home spills your data.Block the leaks.
A VPN can cover single devices, and a browser ad blocker helps inside your browser. For devices using your home network, Datante adds maintained tracking and threat filtering: a managed data firewall for your whole home network. One guided router setting change. No software on every device.
Built by someone who spent 30 years helping the ad industry collect your data. Now building the tool to stop them.
The gap in your privacy
Your Browser Ad Blocker Doesn't Stop your TV from Spying
A VPN may encrypt connections or block ads. It may cover your TV too. But often slowing your connection. Browser ad blockers only work inside the browser. Datante focuses on filtering known unwanted requests across all devices using one-time DNS setting changes in your home network router.
AdGuard also offers home filtering: AdGuard DNS is hosted, while AdGuard Home runs on equipment you manage. Datante focuses on guided router setup and maintained filtering levels. Compare Datante with AdGuard.
What your current setup may not cover
- Smart TV tracking what you watch
- CTV ad signals from Roku, Fire TV, Samsung, LG, and Vizio
- Smart home devices "phoning home" from IoT devices like voice assistants, thermostats, and cameras.
- Any device that communicates over Wi-Fi outside the browser
What Datante adds
- Network-level blocking for every device on your home Wi-Fi
- Identified CTV and IoT tracking attempts — by device type
- Dashboard showing what was blocked and where it was headed
- No per-device installs for router filtering, no blocklist upkeep
Protection across your home network. No per-device installs.
When a DNS pattern is unique to a device, Datante can name it. When it isn't, we show one anonymous Other Unrecognized Devices group instead of building a hardware or browser fingerprint of everyone in your home.
Three steps
Up and running in under five minutes.
Sign up and choose your protection level
Essential, Standard, or Maximum. You can change it any time from your dashboard.
Update your router's DNS settings
We walk you through it step-by-step for popular home routers. You change two DNS server addresses — takes about two minutes.
See blocked tracking activity in real time
Your dashboard shows identified CTV and IoT activity when DNS patterns are specific enough, and safely groups the rest without creating a household device inventory.
Control from anywhere
Pause, allow, or block — from your phone or browser.
No router logins. No technical commands. The phone remote and browser companion put the same controls in your pocket and toolbar.
Phone remote
A lightweight mobile dashboard that travels with you. Pause filtering for your whole home before a guest arrives, or add a custom rule the moment an app misbehaves — no laptop required.
- Pause filtering for 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, or 4 hr
- Custom allow / block rules per domain
- Live protection status at a glance
Browser companion
A browser extension that lives in your toolbar. Spotted a tracker the network filter missed? Block it in two clicks. Need to whitelist a site for one session? Same two clicks.
- Pause your whole home from the toolbar
- Per-domain allow / block without touching the router
- Uses your Datante sign-in — no extra pairing codes
Custom include / exclude rules — available in both
Every household is different. If a smart-home device needs a domain the default rules block, add it to your allow list. If something slips through, block it by name. Rules sync instantly across your network — no reboots, no router config.
It's Your Data, Not Ours
To help you monitor and troubleshoot your household's activity, Datante retains raw data for 30 days. After that, all granular, identifiable information is permanently deleted. Only anonymized, aggregated data is retained and combined with data from other Datante customers to support and improve our service.
Activity logs cover domain requests that reach Datante, not full URLs, page contents, or every Internet request. Read the data definitions, provider limits, and current retention caveats.
Set it and forget it simplicity
You already protect compouter?
Now protect the rest of your home.
Add home network filtering to the tools you already use.
A VPN protects the connections it covers; a browser ad blocker works in the browser. AdGuard's device apps can filter more than a browser extension, while AdGuard DNS and AdGuard Home can filter devices using their network settings. Datante focuses on guided router setup, maintained filtering levels and simple household controls for compatible TVs and smart devices.
- Blocks CTV beacons your TV sends even when you're not streaming
- Stops IoT telemetry from voice assistants, thermostats, and cameras
- Check VPN DNS settings to understand combined coverage
- Applies to requests using your configured home DNS
Guided home filtering. No server to maintain.
Pi-hole and AdGuard Home offer local control on equipment you manage. NextDNS and AdGuard DNS offer hosted filtering without a home server. Datante focuses on one-time guided router setup, managed filters and plain-language controls. You may still need to adjust settings or troubleshoot a connection.
- Maintained blocklists for CTV, IoT, and smart-home trackers
- Plain-language dashboard — no raw DNS logs to interpret
- Protection-level settings instead of regex patterns and config files
- Filters update automatically — no reboots or manual syncs

“I spent thirty years inside the ad industry watching us collect more data, from more devices, in more invasive ways, every year. I built Datante because I couldn't look at the inside of it anymore.”
