ZENCAPTCHA - Privacy-first bot & spam defense, GDPR compliant CAPTCHA

👋 Hi Producthunt, As a web application owner, I found myself in need of a CAPTCHA solution that put privacy first and was 100% GDPR compliant. My primary concern was not just blocking bots but also preventing users with disposable or fake email addresses from causing problems on my platform. Not only were these users a source of frustration, but they also had a detrimental effect on the overall quality of my user base. This in turn cascaded down to the effectiveness of my marketing efforts. With a growing amount of fake or disposable email addresses, the risk of marketing emails ending up in ghost accounts skyrocketed. This not only inflated my marketing expenses but also failed to yield any meaningful sales results. To tackle this issue, I decided to develop an all-in-one CAPTCHA solution that could not only address my own mentioned challenges but also help other website / web app owners facing similar issues. The goal was simple: make the onboarding, registration, login, newsletter signup and similar form submission processes smoother while keeping fraudulent users out (or at least making it hard for them to enter the platform) Here we are! This idea materialized into ZENCAPTCHA, a practical solution to a common problem that aims to strike a balance between user convenience, privacy and security. It's all about making the online experience hassle-free while ensuring that only genuine users get access. With Zencaptcha you will have a 100% GDPR compliant CAPTCHA without the need for a cookie banner on your website (as it does not use cookies). Try it out for FREE.😊

😏 I tried temp-mail in the registration. Passed. Maybe temp-mail is too good? Or you didn't dd it to the signup?

Congrats on the launch! This is the best logo I've seen in the last few weeks, it sort of communicates privacy and captcha in one glance (at least for me.) Huge congrats again on the launch! Love seeing better alternatives to big players :)

🛠📖 If you are looking for the documentation of ZENCAPTCHA you can find it here: https://www.zencaptcha.com/docs/ It's easy to switch from other popular solutions like reCAPTCHA or hCAPTCHA.

🎉🎁 PS: If you integrate Zencaptcha into your website/product and come from Producthunt, you are entitled to a Zencaptcha version with all functionalities. Just drop a message at philco@skiff.com 📩

I love it. As a beta tester, I can say that it's really easy to switch over from google's recaptcha, and the ability to block one-time email addresses is great. I also love that it's not relying on cookies, so I don't need a cookie banner with Zencaptcha.

Hey Phil congratulations 🎉 on this amazing launch 🌻

@phil_co congrats on the launch. Looking forward to using this one as this seems so much better and saver than the solutions.

Congrats on the launch!

Zencaptcha seems promising! How do you differentiate from other bot protection solutions out there? And how user-friendly is the integration process?

Extremely useful for web app owners where users interact with each other a lot. Bots can really break the experience besides operational costs. Congratulations for creating it Phil and good luck with the launch

Store everything in Europe = GDPR, lol.

Best of luck, Phil & Zencaptcha Team. Congratulations on your Launch 🚀!

Congrats on the launch! This is great. Needed something like this.

Exactly what we’re looking for . We don’t want too strong hold our users into verifying ph#/email - not temp or voip We are looking for a verification of past work - let’s say I’m killing it on Fiverr with level three seller status, and 99% positive rating on 2100 orders . Is there any way if they use the same email for both sites that it could be veri
