SpamJam

Tired of deleting spam comments every day? SpamJam is a lightweight, invisible anti-spam solution that blocks automated spam before it hits your database—without annoying your legitimate users with captchas or verification steps.

Why SpamJam?

How It Works

SpamJam uses multiple layers of protection:

1. Salted Honeypot Fields – Per-site randomized hidden fields that only bots fill out
2. Timing Check – HMAC-signed server timestamp detects instant bot submissions
3. Weighted Scoring Engine – Signals combine into a score; hard signals block immediately, soft signals accumulate; gray-zone submissions are held for moderation
4. Referrer Checking – Verifies submissions come from your site
5. Hash Validation – Cryptographic HMAC verification of form integrity
6. Keyword Filtering – Blocks known spam patterns

All of this happens invisibly in the background. Your legitimate users never see a captcha or verification step.

Privacy First

SpamJam doesn’t send your data to third-party services. Everything happens on your server, keeping your users’ information private and your site GDPR-compliant.
