Why AegisSpamGuard avoids CAPTCHA

Feature

Why we don’t use CAPTCHA — Explains the UX and security rationale for score-based protection instead of CAPTCHA challenges.

How it works

AegisSpamGuard focuses on behavior + content + identity scoring to stop spam while keeping forms accessible and conversion-friendly.

How to access / enable

  1. WP Admin → AegisSpamGuard → Dashboard
  2. Scroll to “Why we don’t use CAPTCHA” panel.

Recommended setting

Recommended: Use score-based Challenge/Hold instead of CAPTCHA for most sites.

CAPTCHA increases friction and can reduce conversions; score-based challenges are softer and easier on real users.

Why you need this

Admins need a clear explanation they can share with clients and stakeholders about why protection is strong without CAPTCHA.
