After experiencing the limitations of traditional CAPTCHAs, the founders were unsatisfied with the existing CAPTCHA services out there. Services like Google reCAPTCHA or hCaptcha still ask users to label images, collect extensive user data, and are not accessible for all website users. They wanted to create a secure and invisible CAPTCHA that works without cookies or trackers and without storing personal data from end users. Friendly Captcha is now protecting more than 2.6 billion web interactions every year worldwide.<\/p>\n<h3>Core features<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Truly <a href=\"https:\/\/friendlycaptcha.com\/insights\/invisible-captcha\/\">invisible CAPTCHA<\/a> verification that protects against bots.<\/li>\n<li>No user interaction: a cryptographic <a href=\"https:\/\/friendlycaptcha.com\/insights\/proof-of-work-captcha\/\">Proof-of-Work<\/a> puzzle is solved by the user&#8217;s device in the background;
