Score: 6.8/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 7, Documentation: 7, Utility: 7)

Buster is a browser extension that solves reCAPTCHA audio challenges using speech recognition, aiming to improve user experience by bypassing difficult CAPTCHAs. The project also explores a QR-code-based dual-device verification method that replaces Google's approach, removing the need for an account or third-party identity provider. It is interesting for its novel combination of device attestation, network checks, and accessibility focus.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, devops, security engineers
