Upgrade to Fingerprint Pro bot detection to detect sophisticated bots easily

Always free for developers, unlimited free trials available, no credit card needed.

Fingerprint Pro is a professional bot detection service that processes all information server-side and transmits it securely to your servers using server-to-server APIs.

Pro combines vast amounts of auxiliary data that bots leak (cursor movements, network overrides, browser changes and more) to be able to reliably deduplicate real users from automated software, resulting in the detection of popular automation tools, their derivatives and plugins.

Full product comparison:

1. Pro uses the open source BotD library as well as proprietary technology for increased accuracy and identifier stability.

2. Fingerprint Pro is GDPR and CCPA compliant as the data processor. You still need to be compliant as the data controller and use the identification for fraud prevention under legitimate interest or ask for user consent.

Pro result example:

{
    "bot": {
        "result": "bad"
        "type": "selenium"
    }
}
