The Silent Shield for Sales Funnels
SpamKill helps businesses eliminate fake leads from their sales and marketing funnels — without annoying real users.
Most lead forms are spam magnets. Bots flood CRMs with fake signups, wasting sales time and skewing marketing data. Traditional fixes like CAPTCHAs frustrate users and don’t even stop the bots.
SpamKill runs silently in the background of any website or CRM form, using multi-layered, real-time detection to block spam before it ever gets through. No puzzles, no user interaction — just clean, reliable data.
Unlike basic tools that miss most threats or bloated enterprise software that’s tough to implement, SpamKill delivers enterprise-grade protection with startup-level simplicity. It works across platforms — including WordPress, custom HTML forms, and fully hosted cloud forms — and can even clean dirty CRM databases retroactively.
With over 17 million spam submissions blocked (and counting), SpamKill is protecting thousands of businesses across the globe.
Building and Bootstrapping
What they’ve done: The Vancouver startup has achieved what many early-stage companies aim for: bootstrapped profitability and organic momentum. Without taking outside capital, the team has steadily grown the business, expanded their product offering, and earned a loyal customer base that actively refers new users.
They’ve scaled from an MVP to a full ecosystem, added integrations with major platforms, and earned trust across multiple industries—all while keeping operations lean and growth sustainable.
Why NVBC: The team joined the 2025 New Ventures BC Competition, presented by Innovate BC, to help prepare for a potential raise later this year—not out of necessity, but to explore how capital could accelerate their already-strong trajectory.
NVBC has connected SpamKill to seasoned mentors, sharp entrepreneurs, and potential partners. These insights are shaping how the team thinks about expansion and long-term positioning. It’s also helping raise their profile in the Canadian tech ecosystem—opening doors to new customers, collaborators, and top talent.
Up next: SpamKill is now focused on strategic growth without losing the operational discipline that got them here.
Key priorities include:
- Expanding in CRM-heavy industries where spam is a persistent pain point
- Scaling agency and CRM referral channels through white-label offerings and deeper integration
- Forming partnerships with form builders and marketing platforms to become the default spam protection layer
Their approach: stay lean, grow smart, and double down on what’s already working.
Start Small, Scale Fast
The biggest lesson from building SpamKill? Start with one paying customer—not a perfect product.
“I launched SpamKill as a nameless MVP with barely any features, ” says CEO and Founder, Mihir Dhandha. “But that first customer’s willingness to pay proved the pain was real—and their feedback shaped everything we built next. Revenue validation beats feature validation every time.”
“Ship early, sell something real, and let the market tell you what matters. That feedback loop is where real product-market fit begins.”
