captchAd
The captcha that carries a message. Instead of squinting at traffic lights, visitors look at a brand's image and pick the statement that describes it. The website is protected, the brand is noticed, and the website earns from every genuine pass.

Why captchAd
Every captcha is a moment of attention
Millions of times a day, people stop to prove they're human. That moment is usually wasted on blurry crosswalks. captchAd turns it into a few seconds of genuine attention for a brand, and shares the value with the website that hosts it.
For advertisers
Upload an image and the statement that describes it. Visitors have to look at your image and read your message to pass, and you pay only for genuine passes.
For websites
Add one small snippet to your forms, just as you would any captcha. You get working bot protection, and you earn from every billable pass. Block any categories you'd rather not show.
For visitors
One quick, clear question with four answers. No puzzles, no squinting, and no tracking cookies following them around.
Attention, not impressions
Seen, read and chosen
Most adverts are scrolled past. A captchAd is looked at, because the visitor has to: they study the picture, read the brand's statement and pick it out from three others. That's a message that gets across.
The right answer comes from the advertiser; the others come from other advertisers' statements in different categories, so every pass is a small, genuine moment of recognition.
Protection
Stops bots, with no drama
captchAd is designed to stop casual and scripted bots, and to make AI-assisted solving slow and costly. Most of its strength comes from checks behind the scenes, not the picture itself.
Like any captcha, it's one layer of protection. For high-risk forms, a stronger option is planned.
One-time tokens
Each pass gives a token that works once, expires in minutes, and is checked server to server.
A risk score for every answer
Timing, pointer movement and automation signs shape each score, and suspicious visitors are asked again.
Answers never in the page
The right answer stays on our server, and every challenge is drawn fresh.
Only genuine passes billed
Advertisers pay only for low-risk passes, so nobody profits from bots.
Privacy
Advertising without the tracking
captchAd shows a brand to the person in front of it, at that moment. It doesn't need to know who they are or where they've been.
- No tracking cookies, and no profiles built across websites
- Nothing sold, and advertisers see only total pass counts
- Data used only to stop bots, and anonymised after 30 days
- No consent banner needed for the captcha itself
