Akismet API

The Akismet API is a service that helps website owners automatically filter out spam comments and submissions. When a visitor leaves a comment or submits information, the website sends this data to Akismet via the API. Akismet then analyzes the content using advanced algorithms and a large database of known spam patterns. It returns a score or result indicating whether the submission is likely spam or legitimate. This process helps keep websites cleaner and more user-friendly by reducing unwanted and harmful spam without requiring manual moderation.
