Proof of Human Research is the company blog at research.roundtable.ai, writing about ai and security. Since 2025, 4 different Hacker News readers have linked it 10 times, most often “Why behavior beats device and network in bot detection (benchmarks inside)”. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this research blog for its posts on bot detection, including proof-of-human methods like keystroke dynamics and mouse movement analysis, and a post on benchmarking bot detection systems.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
Articles on Proof of Human, bot detection, and other topics at the intersection of machine learning and human behavior.

What Hacker News says?
> so there's literally no evidence of mechanical means. Keystroke dynamics and mouse movement analysis are pretty fun ways to tackle more advanced bots: https://research.roundtable.ai/proof-of-human/ But of course, it is a game of cat and mouse and there are ways to simulate it.

HN discussionI was reading about your company and really liked your post about benchmarking bot detection systems ( https://research.roundtable.ai/bot-benchmarking/ ). I find myself wondering why Google isn't doing as good a job as you guys. In particular, I'm wondering if you think they've been kind of lazy about the problem because they don't see captcha detection as faring particularly poorly, and perhaps once AI agents reall…

HN discussionYeah, we benchmarked against a few bot detection provides end of last year ( https://research.roundtable.ai/bot-benchmarking/ ), and Turnstile didn't do great when it came to AI agent detection. We hypothesized that Turnstile primarily focuses on device/network characteristics, which AI agents can bypass
