Replace CAPTCHA and SMS with server-verified passkeys

Read the full description

Bot-prevention API using WebAuthn passkeys and security keys. Your backend creates a verification flow, the user approves on their own device, and your server redeems a single-use result. No CAPTCHA, no SMS codes, no raw biometric data stored. It raises the cost of automated abuse. It does not prove identity or liveness.

Could you build this?

Partial A WebAuthn challenge-and-verify API can be scaffolded with existing libraries, but getting the security properties right (replay protection, origin binding, single-use redemption) requires security expertise that vibe coding can't reliably supply.

What it would actually take: The stack would be a backend service using a maintained WebAuthn library (e.g., SimpleWebAuthn or py_webauthn), a short-lived signed session store, and an SDK for customer sites. The hard part is a rigorous security review of the protocol flow and attestation handling, plus a reputation for trust since customers would depend on it for abuse prevention. This calls for an engineer experienced in authentication systems.
