Friendly Captcha is a privacy-first, proof-of-work-based CAPTCHA service designed to protect your applications from bots, spam, and abuse without frustrating users with image puzzles. While Friendly Captcha is an excellent choice for strict privacy compliance (like GDPR), we recommend Cloudflare Turnstile as a completely free, unlimited-volume alternative. If you prefer the Friendly Captcha ecosystem for commercial use and anticipate higher traffic, we recommend exploring their Advanced plan, which offers higher usage to scale with your platform. Or consider the Enterprise plan for usage-based billing.
