This package is newer
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/recaptcha

I assume it uses the free Google service https://developers.google.com/recaptcha

The package currently used is https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hs-captcha, which depends on gd https://hackage.haskell.org/package/gd-3000.7.3

I am trying to remove the dependency on the gd library; I am having difficulty getting this library to work in a Nix Flake: https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&show=gd&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=gd

Recapcha indeed uses the service, which requires much more work to coordinate and maintain than something fully self-contained. Hs-captcha and gd seem to mainly work fine, and I'm much prefer we try to figure out why that doesn't work.
