BotDetect PHP CAPTCHA

Lanapsoft BotDetect™ prevents automated submissions of PHP forms using CAPTCHA images. The BotDetect Captcha PHP class generates and validates best-of-class Captcha images specifically designed to be out of reach of current computer vision and OCR technologies. The library provides an audio Captcha alternative as well, to keep PHP forms accessible to the blind and other people for whom reading the Captcha code could be a problem, enabling you to make ADA Section 508 compliant websites.

Why BotDetect PHP CAPTCHA?

BotDetect is unique among Captcha solutions in offering many Captcha image and sound styles. While each of them is easily comprehensible to human users, randomly using multiple Captcha generation algorithms makes the Captcha challenge practically impossible to pass automatically.

This approach to Captcha security is validated by the BotDetect track record: we have over 2000 paying customers and not one confirmed case of automated Captcha breaking.

Captcha Localization Supported

BotDetect PHP CAPTCHA v3.0.Beta1 now supports localized Captcha generation, using various Unicode character sets and downloadable multi-language sound pronunciations.

The BotDetect PHP CAPTCHA Library

This high-security Captcha protection can be added to your PHP forms with a single line
(<?php require("botdetect.php"); ?>), and fully customized and randomized by editing the botdetect/CaptchaConfig.php file. The library also comes with several PHP code samples demonstrating how to integrate Captcha protection in various PHP usage scenarios, and how to use the many available Captcha features.
