Jake.TibiskiQ: Can you stop all email form spam? What protections do you have in place if you do?

We currently offer the following captcha options: ALTCHA, Cloudflare Turnstile (BYOK) and Google reCAPTCHA. But those don't necessarily guarantee no spam. We are currently in the process of adding an option for AI screening to determine if a response is spam or not. This will be optional and disabled by default.
And how much spam do you see on your end❓

Well, I don't see any spam.
I have an example where I replaced a WordPress form with Deftform.
While I used to get anywhere from a few to over a dozen spam messages a day on WordPress, I haven't received a single one with Deftform.

I recommend Deftform; it solves the spam problem once and for all. 👍
Jack S I totally disagree with you and have evidence to back it up. I get lots of spam when running paid ads across lots of networks which is inevitable. I was looking for native email spam protection which Deftform doesn't have. The best native email spam protection is with KiwiForm which is currently on AppSumo without any 3rd party services. I recommend KiwiForm over Deftform.
