Hi,
Is there any alternative to using recaptcha in hubspot forms, ideally a known/empty hidden honeypot method?
Recapthca is having a negative impact on my website performance.
Thanks

Hey @matttunney at the moment recaptcha is the only anti bot service we offer out of the box. There's no way to implement a custom service on our rendered forms.
However, you can still create your own form and integrate it with HubSpot using our forms api.

Were you ever able to figure out a honeypot option?

Hi Tom,
are there any plans to offer an alternative to reCaptcha or manual integrations? The data protection officers of two of our clients have clearly stated, that it is not allowed to use reCaptcha without consent in the EU. This would mean that we'd have to accept spam and remove it from all client hubs. On websites, we could of course manually implement the forms via API, but this means we'd have to sacrifice the ease of use of HubSpot forms. Within the HubSpot CMS we can't event use our own implementation of a Honey Pot without serverless functions. Do you have any suggestions for a workaround? That would really help us!
Thanks!
