Stop Bots Cold! I Built a Laravel reCAPTCHA v3 Package
May 21, 2024
I wrote a Composer package that you can use to implement reCaptcha v3 in Laravel. Feel free to check out the repository.
reCAPTCHA v3 – Ochrona Stron Internetowych Przed Botami
Important Features of reCAPTCHA v3:
- No User Interaction Required – Unlike reCAPTCHA v2, users do not need to click checkboxes ("I'm not a robot") or solve image puzzles.
- Scoring System – reCAPTCHA v3 assigns a score from 0.0 to 1.0, where 0.0 indicates suspicious behavior (potential bot), and 1.0 confirms a genuine user.
- Behavior Analysis – The system analyzes user behavior, such as navigation patterns and clicks, to determine if the activity is human or automated.
- Customizable Thresholds – Website administrators can set a threshold below which users will be subjected to additional verification.
- API-Based Operation – reCAPTCHA v3 functions through an API.
Where to Implement?
- Forms
- Comment and Review Sections

Interesting Facts About reCAPTCHA v3:
You can set a score threshold (e.g., 0.3) – if the score is low, additional authentication can be enforced.
