Proof-of-Work

You’re Burning Your CPU to Stop AI Bots. You’re Just Making Them Stronger.

Anubis spent a year shipping WebAssembly to make proof-of-work bot defense smoother for humans. But every client-side efficiency also optimizes the solver for AI scrapers. We aren’t building a wall against bots; we’re paving a highway for them, while taxing real users to burn CPU cycles just to prove they have a pulse.
