the VPN detection is pretty cool, how does it work?

it analyzes the network packets in real time, they contain many data points if you know where to look.

Residential and mobile proxies are also detected.

I like that it catches bots with no need for challenges but, how does it stack up against other Proof of Work solutions?

Truesign doesn't use PoW. The bot detection works by collecting network and browser signals.

The PoW solutions I've seen out there just add 1-2 seconds of delay before granting access to the whole site. It could work against random unsophisticaed crawlers but I don't see how that can stop determined bots.

This technology provides an effective way to block bots and VPNs without disrupting the user experience, which is valuable for many projects. And the free plan is a practical addition.

I've tried it and I have to admit it's more accurate and faster than I expected. Didn't try the email deep validation yet, but looks promising!
