Pie Adblock
Pie is a browser-based platform centered around its main product, Pie Adblock, a free extension designed to give users greater control over their online experience by blocking intrusive advertisements while offering optional, user-controlled engagement with select ads. It removes a wide range of ads in real time, including pre-roll video ads on platforms like YouTube, mid-roll ads on Twitch, pop-ups, banners, cookie prompts, and other disruptive elements, resulting in a cleaner and faster browsing experience. It also includes advanced features such as bypassing anti-adblock pop-ups, suppressing cookie notices, and maintaining continuous updates to ensure ads are effectively blocked even as platforms evolve. A key differentiator is its customizable approach: users can whitelist specific websites or creators to support them while still blocking ads elsewhere, tailoring how and where ads appear.
