## Why Cap over Cloudflare Turnstile and other CAPTCHAS?
35
+
36
+
***Why use this over Turnstile:** Cloudflare Turnstile is known for having an extremely high error rate, especially for users using private browsers such as Brave or Librewolf. Also, Cap is open-source.
37
+
38
+
***Why use this over RECAPTCHA:** Cap is significantly smaller and faster than RECAPTCHA, open-source, fully free and doesn't require you checking traffic signs due to its PoW nature.
39
+
40
+
***Why use this over hCAPTCHA:** Not only is Cap's bundle 250x smaller than hCAPTCHA, it's open-source and doesn't require you checking traffic signs
41
+
42
+
***Why use this over Altcha:** Cap is slightly smaller than altcha and easier to integrate, but if you don't care about that and want a more mature solution I would highly recommend checking it out.
