What is hCaptcha?
hCaptcha is a bot detection and abuse prevention platform that delivers risk scores and challenge controls across web, mobile, and server‑side integrations. It protects user accounts by detecting takeover attempts, credential stuffing, and multi‑account abuse while preserving privacy with zero PII data sharing.
The platform includes fraud protection for transactions, payment processing, and subscription services, and it supports pull‑based SMS MFA for stronger verification without toll fraud. Private Learning uses machine‑learning models that adapt to emerging threats in real time, offering custom risk models without exposing sensitive user data.
It integrates with common identity providers and SAML/SSO, provides multi‑user dashboards, and offers native SDKs for iOS and Android. The solution is compliant with GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, and HIPAA, and it supports legacy browsers and non‑JavaScript clients.
