# checkpoint
# 🛑 Checkpoint
Checkpoint is a tiny reverse proxy that attempts to block AI by serving a cryptographic challenge.
_This project is a work-in-progress. It works, but has only basic functionality._
## Why?
AI scrapers are everywhere. This will stop them. `robots.txt` won't.
## Features
- Protect your endpoint from AI bots with a cryptographic challenge
- Easy configuration in jsonc
- Support for cloudflare
### Planned features
- Dynamic challenge amount (aka difficulty)
- Detection of token overuse
- Better wait screen
## Caveats
If you are using this, it's almost certain search engines will stop indexing your site. Keep this in mind.
