Bot Butcher - Antispam API for Websites is an AI-powered antispam solution designed to protect website contact forms from spam bots. It uses a fine-tuned large language model to classify each submitted message as spam or not spam within the context of your site, providing high accuracy and privacy-focused features. The API supports easy integration via API key, step-by-step request handling, and optional retrieval of past classified messages.
How Bot Butcher Works
- Form submission: A user visits your website's contact page and posts a message to your contact form.
- Send to Bot Butcher: The message is sent to Bot Butcher along with your domain name. The service classifies the message using context-aware AI.
- Handle the response: Bot Butcher returns the classification in JSON. If the message is not spam, it is passed to the end user. You may optionally store the message_id for later retrieval.
Optional: You can GET past messages to review classifications by logging in or using the API to retrieve messages via their message_id.
