01 / HUMAN FIRST
Make verification a tiny win.
Small moments of play trigger positive reinforcement. Instead of a chore, verification becomes a brief, satisfying interaction.
Human verification, rethought
Stop bots.
Delight humans.
Replace frustrating image grids with playable microgames. Secure your endpoints with a verification surface that users actually enjoy.
The problem
Security shouldn't feel like a dead end.
For a decade, human verification has meant finding traffic lights or deciphering blurry text. It's a high-friction roadblock that damages conversion rates and frustrates genuine users.
We believe that proving you're human should be as simple and natural as playing a quick game. TapHuman replaces annoyance with delight, while maintaining rigorous server-side cryptographic validation.
A better default
Built for the moment
between trust and access.
02 / PRIVATE
No image harvesting.
We verify humanity through interaction patterns, not by using your visitors to label datasets.
03 / ACCESSIBLE
Everyone gets through.
A built-in keyboard bypass supports WCAG 2.1 AA alignment — no audio CAPTCHA required (formal audit pending).
How it works
Four steps. Zero guesswork.
A frictionless flow from client to edge to your server. Fast, verifiable, and extremely difficult to automate.
01
Your visitor arrives
The client requests a signed challenge token from the API.
02
A game appears
A microgame renders instantly in the iframe.
03
They make a move
The user completes the objective. The SDK signs the result.
04
Your server verifies
You validate the HMAC-SHA256 signature. Done.
Made for real traffic
Fits wherever people log in.
Built to drop into any stack without disrupting your UI.

Proof, not personal data.
TapHuman determines humanity through gameplay and interaction patterns. We don't read cookies, track IPs across domains, or build advertising profiles on your visitors.
Accessibility by default
Verification that meets people where they are.
The Accessible Behavioral Bypass Gateway provides a keyboard-based verification path designed to support WCAG 2.1 AA (formal audit pending). No audio puzzle. No image alternative. Just three keystrokes.
