Image CAPTCHAs are still extremely common, on login forms to registration flows. CapSkip solves a huge range of image CAPTCHA types locally, typically in about a tenth of a second. That kind of speed matters when you handle high volumes.

Test automation engineers hit CAPTCHAs as well, particularly on live environments that copy production. Instead of skipping these tests, teams are able to let CapSkip clear the challenge so the suite remains complete.

Datacenter IP pools and datacenter proxies perform differently under anti-bot scrutiny. Regardless of which blend you run, CapSkip handles the CAPTCHA on your machine without adding an external dependency to the path.

Logging plus metrics tell you the point at which challenges slow down. Since CapSkip lives on your box, teams are able to measure solve times to the millisecond and skip guessing about a third-party queue.

At its core, a CAPTCHA solver interprets a challenge and produces the answer a site is looking for, so an hands-off tool can keep going.
