What is a CAPTCHA

Often times when signing up for a website, downloading a program, or otherwise using the web you will come across a form which will ask you to "Fill in the numbers and letters you see above." These sequences of numbers and letters, designed to keep out computer programs, are called captchas. CAPTCHAs are extremely important for a safe, secure internet. However, to the detriment of the visually impaired, many screen readers cannot detect them

What about Audio CAPTCHAs

Audio CAPTCHAs, available on some sites, are often deliberately garbled, prone to skipping, and otherwise difficult to access. They are designed to be difficult to solve to prevent computers and other programs from doing precisely that. Furthermore, visual and audio CAPTCHAs also serve as a barrier for individuals who are deaf as well as blind. Braille displays and other technology enable these individuals to use their computers, but currently, they must depend on third parties to facilitate solving CAPTCHAs. CAPTCHA Be Gone does not rely on the user to be able to see, hear, or even locate the CAPTCHA on the page, making it more usable for individuals of varying ability. Finally, only a limited number of sites offer alternative captchas as a solution. Many offer only the standard, inaccessible, visual CAPTCHA.

Enter CAPTCHA Be Gone

CAPTCHA Be Gone solves this problem by securely detecting captchas on webpages, solving them, and copying the result to the user's clipboard in a matter of seconds with the press of a single keystroke. It is not even necessary for the user to know the precise location of the captcha. No data, other than the captcha, is sent out, so the user's personal information, websites, and other identifying data is secure.
