Headerbid Expert - A Chrome Extension For Publishers

Headerbid Expert is a powerful Chrome extension that helps publishers gain insights into the performance of their webpage's header bidding partners. It offers detailed information on latency from each partner, whether they load simultaneously or block pages, and if they are loaded in parallel. By using this data, publishers can avoid potential impression loss and under monetization. It's the ideal tool for improving your webpage's speed and revenue generation.

I don't think it works anymore? Is there an alternative?

Not well maintained. New prebid server endpoint missing, Amazon UAM header bidder not recognized.

Uwe Braun, 2019-11-18

There should be option to update bidderPatterns. This version is very old and no all bidderPatterns are present.
