The twelve questions we get every week.
What is TagDrishti?
TagDrishti is a real-user tag monitoring platform. A 12 KB script in your site's <head> watches every tracking tag in every browser session and alerts in under 2 seconds when a tag fires wrong, mis-fires, or stops firing entirely. Built for analytics teams and agencies running GA4, Meta, GTM, and 80+ other vendor pixels.
How is TagDrishti different from Google Tag Manager's built-in monitoring?
GTM's preview and debug tools confirm what your container is configured to fire. They don't confirm whether the tag actually reached the vendor on a real user's browser. TagDrishti runs as an independent script outside the GTM container, so a broken GTM container is itself something we can detect and alert on.
How fast does TagDrishti detect tag failures?
Median time from the broken tag firing in a real user's browser to an alert hitting Slack, PagerDuty, email, or SMS is under 2 seconds. Compare that to weekly synthetic crawls or hourly BigQuery batch jobs, where the typical detection latency is hours to days.
Does the TagDrishti script slow down my site?
The script is 12 KB gzipped, loaded with the defer attribute, and does not block render or DOMContentLoaded. We measure our own footprint and surface it on the dashboard so you can verify on a Lighthouse run. Core Web Vitals impact is negligible on every site we've onboarded.
How long does setup take?
A few minutes in the dashboard, plus one developer touch on your site. Sign up, add your domain, then hand one <script> tag to your developer to paste into your site's <head>. Real-user tag data starts flowing on the very next pageview. There's no GTM template to install and no DNS change. But the script does have to go in <head> directly, not via GTM. GTM itself can be blocked by ad-blockers, fail on a consent-mode change, or break on a bad container publish, and the whole point of a monitor is that it keeps running when those things happen.
How is TagDrishti priced?
Site plan: $49/mo for 1 site and 500K events. Monitor plan: $799/mo for 10 sites and 5M events (the typical agency tier). Observe plan: $3,555/mo for 50 sites and 20M events with BigQuery export. Annual billing saves 20%. Launch promo: first 10 Site signups lock in $49/mo for life.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 14 days, no credit card required. The trial is the full Monitor-plan feature set so you can evaluate against real production traffic, not a sandbox. At the end of the trial you pick a plan; no automatic billing.
How does TagDrishti handle GDPR and Consent Mode v2?
Full Consent Mode v2 support across all four signals (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, analytics_storage). We auto-detect 9 major CMPs (OneTrust, Cookiebot, Didomi, TrustArc, iubenda, Termly, Quantcast, Usercentrics, Consentmanager) and alert on tags firing pre-consent. EU sessions stay in our EU region; data never leaves.
Can TagDrishti monitor non-Google tags like Meta Pixel, TikTok, LinkedIn?
Yes. We auto-detect 80+ vendor pixels by network signature, including GA4, Google Ads, Meta/Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight, TikTok Pixel, Pinterest, Snap, Reddit, Bing/UET, X/Twitter, Adobe Analytics, Hotjar, Amplitude, Mixpanel, Criteo, Taboola, Outbrain, and more. No mapping configuration to maintain.
Does TagDrishti work with multiple Tag Management Systems?
Yes. We monitor GTM, Adobe Launch, Tealium iQ, Segment, and Piwik PRO simultaneously. If your group has acquired sites running different TMS platforms, you get one consistent alerting surface across all of them. No per-TMS dashboard switching.
Can agencies white-label TagDrishti for client-facing reports?
Yes. Included on the Monitor and Observe plans. You get one secure, client-facing status URL per site, branded with your agency's logo and colours. Clients see green/amber/red tag health in real time without a TagDrishti login. Audit PDFs ship in your agency brand on the same plans.
Where is data stored and what's the security posture?
Regional ingestion in APAC, EU, and US. Region is locked at first event for data residency compliance. Infrastructure runs on Google Cloud Platform (SOC 2-ready, certification in progress). PII detection is built into the ingestion path so we surface accidental email/phone leaks rather than store them. DPA available on request.
