Prosopo defends against web scraping, credential stuffing, account takeover, click fraud, ticket scalping, inventory hoarding, loyalty abuse, checkout automation, phishing attempts and spam bot submissions — distinguishing malicious automation from legitimate humans and trusted AI agents instead of binary block/allow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of bot and agent abuse does Prosopo protect against?
How does Prosopo compare to Enterprise solutions like Datadome, Arkose Labs, and Akamai Bot Manager?
Prosopo takes a different design route from DataDome, Kasada, HUMAN and Arkose. When Prosopo stops a bot, the block response carries the reason — Inconsistent hardware readings for device, Solver service detected, Synthetic interaction timings, HTTP header fingerprint mismatch — not a numerical risk score, not a vendor-branded policy label. Your team knows what caught the request without opening a support ticket. Our base captcha is open source on GitHub and self-hosting is available. See the Forrester Wave Bot and Agent Trust Management Q2 2026 breakdown for the full comparison against DataDome, HUMAN, Kasada, Arkose Labs, CHEQ, Netacea, hCaptcha and Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise, or compare vendors one page at a time, including where we would tell you to buy someone else.
Why choose Prosopo over Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise or hCaptcha?
Prosopo provides better user experience with privacy-first design and lower costs. While reCAPTCHA relies on data collection and hCaptcha's data compliance is questionable, our dynamic risk assessment minimizes challenges for legitimate users.
What is bot and agent trust management?
Bot and agent trust management is the software category name Forrester adopted in late 2025 to reflect that AI agents now sit between humans and traditional bots. Instead of binary block/allow, the discipline asks vendors to identify the intent of every automated request and make ongoing trust decisions for humans, agents and bots alike. Prosopo's Decision Machines rule engine, Catcher behavioural SDK and agent whitelist rules are all designed around that trust-first model.
Does Prosopo handle AI agents and agentic browsers, or just bots?
Both. AI agents like ChatGPT's shopping agent, Claude's computer-use agent and Perplexity's browser act on behalf of real users — block them blindly and you lose customers, allow them blindly and you invite abuse. Prosopo treats agent identity as a first-class signal: granular agent permissions, behavioural verification, and agent whitelist rules that distinguish a trusted agent acting for a real customer from a malicious bot.
How does Prosopo's bot detection technology work?
Prosopo uses behavioral analysis, JavaScript signals, and proof-of-work challenges to identify bots in real-time. Our machine learning analyzes hundreds of signals to dynamically adjust protection levels.
Can Prosopo distinguish between good bots, AI agents, and malicious automation?
Yes. Prosopo automatically whitelists beneficial bots like search crawlers, supports per-agent permissions for AI agents acting on behalf of real users, and blocks malicious traffic — all from the same rule engine. Our custom rules ensure legitimate automation and trusted agents maintain access while preventing unauthorized scraping and spam bot abuse.
What industries benefit most from Prosopo's bot protection platform?
E-commerce, fintech, gaming, media, SaaS and healthcare — anywhere a false positive costs a real customer and a black-box block is hard to defend. Prosopo's detector library ships every block with a technical, human-readable reason string — so your team can explain to a CFO or a DPO exactly what caught the request, and add a custom Access Rule if the default doesn't match what you're seeing.
Is Prosopo GDPR/CCPA/LGPD/PIPEDA compliant?
Prosopo's privacy-first architecture ensures GDPR/CCPA/LGPD/PIPEDA compliance. Data is collected for the purpose of fraud prevention only. We do not track users or sell data.
How quickly can I deploy Prosopo's bot protection?
Prosopo integrates in minutes as a drop-in replacement for existing solutions, such as Google reCAPTCHA. Unlike complex enterprise deployments taking weeks, our lightweight setup enables immediate protection. Start free with 10,000 monthly verifications.
