Proxy support are often necessary for serious scraping, and CapSkip plays nicely with them without fuss. You can send requests the way your stack needs while still solving CAPTCHAs on your own machine, so the footprint consistent across runs.

Classic image and text CAPTCHAs remain everywhere, on sign-up pages to checkout screens. CapSkip recognizes thousands of image CAPTCHA variants locally, usually in about a tenth of a second. This throughput matters when you handle large volumes.

A common mistake is simply picking any solver as if the same. Match the solver to the challenge types, your scale, and the cost ceiling - CapSkip spans the common types at one price, which fits most real projects.

CapSkip's API is designed to emulate the request format of major CAPTCHA-solving services. What this means, tools and tools that currently call other services can point at CapSkip with minimal changes and zero coding.

Cloudflare Turnstile has become a common barrier on pages that want to deter bots and skip traditional image puzzles. CapSkip solves Turnstile locally within seconds, covering both challenge variants. If you run scrapers that keep hitting Turnstile, This page removes a real roadblock.
