Vercel BotID is now generally available

Vercel BotID is an invisible CAPTCHA with no visible challenges or manual bot management required.

BotID is a new protection layer on Vercel designed for public, high-value routes such as checkouts, signups, AI chat interfaces, LLM-powered endpoints, and public APIs that are targets for sophisticated bots mimicking real user behavior.

Unlike IP-based or heuristic systems, BotID:


  • Silently collects thousands of signals that distinguish human users from bot


  • Mutates these detections on every page load, evading reverse engineering and sophisticated bypasses


  • Streams attack data into a global machine learning mesh, collectively strengthening protection for all customers

Powered by Kasada, BotID integrates into your application with a type-safe SDK:


  • Client-side detection using the <BotIdClient> component


  • Server-side verification with the checkBotId function


  • Automatic labeling of logs and telemetry for blocked sessions

BotID traffic is visible in the Firewall dashboard and can be filtered by verdict (pass or fail), user agent, country, IP address, request path, target path, JA4 digest, and host.
