What it does

RealNode adds a hardware-backed security layer to websites using FIDO2/WebAuthn. It uses security features already available on a user's device, such as Touch ID, Face ID, or a device PIN, to help tell real users apart from automated sessions. Bots can imitate browser behavior, but they can't simply reproduce the cryptographic proof from a user's device authenticator. No biometric data is stored by RealNode.

Hardware-backed bot protection, anti-spam, and fraud prevention for WooCommerce. Stops scalper bots and fake orders at checkout with zero friction.

Every high-demand sale carries the same risk: automated scripts claim your inventory in seconds, real customers miss out, and your support team spends days handling frustrated buyers. RealNode eliminates that scenario at the source. Instead of analyzing traffic patterns and making guesses, RealNode asks a simple question that bots cannot answer: prove you are a human being, with a real device, right now. Automated scripts fail instantly. Real customers answer in a single tap. The result is a checkout experience that feels identical to your customers — and completely closed to bots.

    There is a growing number of companies offering anti-bot protection SaaS to protect websites from scraping by automated bots based on Puppeteer/Selenium. Most of them rely on browser properties such as headers, javascript properties (window., navigator.), behavior analysis, to build device/user fingerprints and match it against a database of "whitelisted" fingerprints (typical user behavior/settings/device props etc). For the past few months, together with two other devs I have worked on a customized Puppeteer/Playwright scraping backend. It's essentially a drop-in…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
