Honeypot

A honeypot is a hidden form field that traps bots because real people never see it.

Spam bots fill every field they find. The honeypot is invisible to humans, so any submission with it filled is junk and gets dropped.

It is quieter than a CAPTCHA. Your customers never squint at traffic lights. It does not catch everything, but it catches most.

Think Bright Sites forms use a honeypot and other quiet checks before a submission reaches your records.
