How can I add an anti spam bot on a forum site?

[Fidelia]

I have seen some sites have an anti spam bot active on the site that automatically removes post that are considered to be spam before they go live publicly.

What is the process of adding anti spam bots on a site? Is it a free or premium feature?

You can customize a forum site through mods (add ons or plugins) and each forum site has mods for different purposes, including anti spam

Cloudfare turnstile is the best anti-spam prevention. It’s a captcha and yes, it’s free.

If you coded the forum from scratch, That would mean, you would develop a system using Python that automates tasks like analyzing the post and checking weather its copyrighted or spam. pretty simple

I don’t see too many developers coding their own forums from scratch these days. A lot of developers use forum software like Xenforo, IPB, SMF, or phpBB. It’s a lot easier to use existing software instead of building your own.

One of the ways to add anti-spam not on a forum site is by installing a CAPTCHA plugin.

You would first of all need to check your forum software if it is compatible with platforms like Clean Talk or Askimet.
