TechCrunch indicated the product is a potential competitor for CloudFlare, although Torbit founder and CEO is quoted in the article, claiming it to be a complementary service.
As of November 2012 - TechCrunch had reported over 1,000 leading sites had installed Torbit's scripts as part of their web optimization strategy.
