What is Kasada?
Kasada is a bot management and fraud prevention platform that protects websites and APIs from automated attacks, scraping, account takeover and abuse. It doesn't use CAPTCHAs. Instead, its detection runs inside a JavaScript VM with custom bytecode that keeps changing, which makes it hard for attackers to reverse-engineer.
The platform has four connected products built on one detection engine. Bot Defense stops automated attacks. Account Intelligence finds fraud rings and multi-accounting across devices and sessions. AI Agent Trust verifies AI agents and crawlers and controls which endpoints they can reach. KasadaIQ for Fraud gives early warning of fraud.
Kasada sells to large enterprises in airlines, e-commerce, financial services, gaming, SaaS and travel. It says it protects $150 billion of e-commerce and 250 million people daily. Pricing is not published, and access starts with a demo.
