Cap is a privacy-first, self-hosted CAPTCHA system designed as a modern alternative to traditional third-party verification services. It replaces invasive tracking-based CAPTCHA solutions with a lightweight approach based on proof-of-work and client-side instrumentation. The system can be deployed independently, giving developers full control over user data and verification processes. It integrates easily into web applications and focuses on maintaining usability while preventing automated abuse. Cap avoids reliance on centralized providers, reducing dependency on external services and improving privacy compliance. Its design reflects a shift toward decentralized, user-respecting security mechanisms. It is particularly suited for developers who want transparent and customizable bot protection.
