EchoFilter — Lead Quality Filter

Description

EchoFilter protects your WordPress forms from bots and spam using behavioral biometrics — analyzing mouse movement, typing patterns, and timing to distinguish real users from automated submissions.

How it works:

1. Install the plugin and enter your EchoFilter API key
2. EchoFilter silently analyzes every visitor’s behavior
3. On form submit, it scores the session (0–100 TrustScore)
4. Bots get blocked. Real users get through instantly.

No CAPTCHAs. No friction. No false positives.

Compatible with:

• Contact Form 7
• WPForms
• Gravity Forms
• Elementor Forms
• Ninja Forms
• Any standard HTML form

Three protection modes:

• Block — Bot submissions are rejected with an error message (recommended)
• Flag — Bot submissions go through but with a hidden _echofilter_bot=1 field
• Log — Monitor mode: all submissions allowed, bots logged in your dashboard
