Botomia is a novel proof-of-work system designed to block automated traffic. It helps websites and APIs prevent abuse from bots and AI scrappers.
Bots perform tasks like spamming forms, scraping content, and abusing public endpoints. Recent AI services have made it easier to automate these actions at scale. Traditional defenses like CAPTCHAs are often ineffective, intrusive, or both.
Botomia introduces a lightweight computational challenge before accepting requests. This makes automation expensive while remaining fast and unnoticeable to human users. It works without collecting personal data, requiring visual tests, or interrupting the user flow.
Unlike traditional proof-of-work systems Botomia cannot be optimized by bypassing the JavaScript engine. This means bots cannot solve challenges quicker by using faster implementations.
Botomia can be added to most web and API setups with minimal changes. It is designed to be efficient, reliable, and unobtrusive.
