Alternatives to HUMAN Security
In short
HUMAN Security ranks fifth of 15 on 7 of 10 points, just below the four-way tie at the top, with Akamai the nearest on points. Four head-to-head pages compare it with DataDome, Kasada, Akamai and Cloudflare. Its price is not public, and medium-trust agents lack cryptographic verification.
Head-to-head, with the sourced difference
- HUMAN Security vs DataDome. DataDome publishes plan prices (from USD 3,830 a month); HUMAN publishes none and rates agents High, Medium or Low trust, with High reserved for agents that carry a cryptographic key on each request. Source, read 2026-11-04.
- HUMAN Security vs Kasada. Kasada launched AI Agent Trust on 2026-01-21 with a verified agent directory that supports Web Bot Auth; HUMAN's AgenticTrust grades agents by trust level and per-action permissions, without naming Web Bot Auth on the pages read. Source, read 2026-11-04.

Where HUMAN Security is not the fit
- Medium-trust agents lack cryptographic verification, so HUMAN itself warns of false negatives (Trust Levels blog, 2026-09-02).
- No native pay-per-crawl; monetization is through partner tools (AgenticTrust page).
- No published price list (package plans page).
