What is CAPTCHA completion?

CAPTCHAs (Completely Automated Public Turing tests to tell Computers and Humans Apart) are a type of challenge-response test used for authentication, security, and access control. In the context of online presence and community building on platforms like Ko-fi, CAPTCHA completion can help protect users from brute-force attempts.

Ko-fi's CAPTCHA completion feature

Cloudflare has integrated a unique CAPTCHA completion feature into its login process for Ko-fi accounts. This feature uses a combination of image recognition technology and machine learning algorithms to verify the user's identity.

How does it work?

Here's how it works: when a user attempts to log in to their Ko-fi account, Cloudflare sends an image of a random logo or icon to the user. The user must then identify and correctly recognize this image using computer vision technology. If they successfully complete the challenge, they are granted access to their account.
