Match the solver to your challenge mix, your scale, and your cost ceiling - CapSkip covers image CAPTCHAs, reCAPTCHA and Turnstile at a flat rate, which fits the majority of real projects. + +CapSkip's API was built to mirror the endpoints of major CAPTCHA-solving services. In practical terms, tools and scripts that already target those services can point at CapSkip with minimal changes and no new code. + +Residential proxies and residential proxies perform in different ways under anti-bot scrutiny. Regardless of which blend your setup run, CapSkip handles the CAPTCHA locally and adds no extra a remote hop to the path. + +A short switch-over plan keeps the move smooth: point the endpoint at CapSkip, confirm a few real solves, and then flip the main jobs. Since the request format mirrors popular services, most of the work is already done. + +CapSkip's extension puts solving right into Chrome, Firefox and Chromium browsers such as Brave and Edge. For manual tasks or quick automation, the extension handles challenges and needs no any configuration. + +Varying headers and request fingerprints goes a long way to help automation look natural.
