Best Captcha Solver Services in 2026

Web scraping remains a large industry, and websites are still investing heavily in anti-bot systems. Cloudflare reports bot traffic trends through Cloudflare Radar, and that only covers the bots they can identify.

One of the many tools in a website's anti-bot stack is the CAPTCHA. Cloudflare alone can block traffic by IP reputation with error 1005, block suspicious browser fingerprints with Cloudflare error 1010, and challenge visitors with systems like Turnstile. A CAPTCHA solver only handles one part of that stack. It will not fix a bad proxy, a weak browser fingerprint, or a mismatched session.

As any developer who has tried scraping at scale will tell you, CAPTCHAs are a pain. You can have a strong scraper and still need to bypass captcha.

The CAPTCHA solving market keeps expanding, and every provider claims to be faster, cheaper, and more accurate than the last. This list compares the best CAPTCHA solver services by coverage, speed, pricing, API support, and proxy handling.

Most CAPTCHA solvers fall under one of three categories: 

  • AI CAPTCHA solvers that solve supported tasks automatically.
  • Human-powered solvers that send tasks to real workers.
  • Hybrid solvers that use AI first and fall back to people when needed.

With that in mind, here are the best CAPTCHA solver services worth considering in 2026.

One note on hCaptcha: It is still common, but public support has become less consistent across CAPTCHA solver vendors. This list only includes hCaptcha under a provider when that provider currently lists it in public docs.

2Captcha

2Captcha is one of the best-known CAPTCHA solver services on the market. It used to be known mostly as a human-powered service, but its current API docs describe it as an AI-first CAPTCHA and image recognition service with human fallback for rare or difficult tasks.

That makes 2Captcha a good fit if you want wide coverage without betting everything on a purely automatic solver.

Best for: broad CAPTCHA coverage and AI solving with human fallback.

2Captcha Pricing & Features

2Captcha charges per 1,000 solved CAPTCHAs. Users pay only for solved CAPTCHAs, and the pricing page lists 99.9% uptime.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
Normal image CAPTCHA$0.50-$1 per 1,000Standard image tasks
reCAPTCHA v2$1-$2.99 per 1,000Price depends on task type
reCAPTCHA v3$1.45-$2.99 per 1,000Score-based tasks
reCAPTCHA Enterprise$1-$2.99 per 1,000Enterprise task pricing varies
Cloudflare Turnstile$1.45 per 1,000Token-based challenge
Amazon CAPTCHA / AWS WAF$1.45 per 1,000Amazon and WAF tasks
Arkose Labs FunCaptcha$1.45-$50 per 1,000Higher price for harder tasks

2Captcha Speed

2Captcha is faster than it used to be for common formats because most tasks now start with AI. Harder visual puzzles, ambiguous images, and unusual formats can still be routed to workers, which means solve time can vary.

For high-volume scraping, treat 2Captcha as a coverage-first solver rather than a speed-first solver.

2Captcha Supported Formats

2Captcha supports a very wide list of CAPTCHA types, including:

  • Image CAPTCHA
  • Text CAPTCHA
  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v2 Callback
  • reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • reCAPTCHA Enterprise
  • Arkose Labs FunCaptcha
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • Amazon CAPTCHA / AWS WAF
  • ALTCHA
  • Friendly Captcha
  • DataDome
  • MTCaptcha
  • GeeTest
  • Tencent
  • Lemin
  • Audio CAPTCHA
  • Slider, rotate, click, grid, and coordinate tasks

The current API docs also show recent support additions, including Yidun, Binance CAPTCHA, Hunt CAPTCHA, and TSPD CAPTCHA.

2Captcha API and Integration

2Captcha uses a task submission flow: create a task, receive a task ID, and then request the result. It also has SDKs and examples for Python, PHP, JavaScript, Go, Ruby, Java, C#, and C++.

The service is also integrated into a large number of third-party tools, which is one reason it remains a default option for many scraping setups.

2Captcha Proxy Integration

Some 2Captcha tasks can be solved without sending your own proxy. For site-bound challenges, especially where the token needs to match the original session, you can pass proxy details with the task.

This matters for reCAPTCHA, Turnstile, and similar systems where the solver, browser session, user agent, and IP quality all affect whether the final token works.

CapMonster Cloud

CapMonster Cloud is an automatic CAPTCHA solver from ZennoLab. It is built for high-volume work and is one of the stronger AI CAPTCHA solvers for teams that care about speed, price, and predictable API behavior.

It also has one of the better current support lists. The old claim that CapMonster does not support FunCaptcha is no longer accurate. CapMonster now has a dedicated FunCaptcha page with public pricing and a listed success rate.

Best for: automatic solving at scale.

CapMonster Cloud Pricing & Features

CapMonster Cloud charges per 1,000 solves. Its pricing page lists success rates between 95% and 99%, depending on the CAPTCHA type.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
reCAPTCHA v2$0.60 per 1,000Listed at 99% success rate
reCAPTCHA v3$0.90 per 1,000Listed at 99% success rate
reCAPTCHA v2 Enterprise$1.00 per 1,000Enterprise task
reCAPTCHA v3 Enterprise$1.50 per 1,000Enterprise score task
Cloudflare Turnstile$1.30 per 1,000Listed at 99% success rate
Cloudflare Bot Challenge$1.30 per 1,000Cloudflare challenge task
Amazon WAF$1.40 per 1,000AWS WAF task
GeeTest$1.20 per 1,000GeeTest task
Tencent CAPTCHA$1.60 per 1,000Tencent task
Yidun$1.00 per 1,000Yidun task
Text CAPTCHA$0.30 per 1,000Basic text tasks
FunCaptcha$1.10 per 1,000Listed on CapMonster's separate FunCaptcha page

CapMonster Cloud Speed

CapMonster is built around automatic recognition, so common tasks are usually faster than human-only services. Its value is highest when you are solving repeatable tasks at volume.

It can still struggle when a provider changes challenge logic or when a site requires more than just the CAPTCHA token. In those cases, the surrounding browser, headers, fingerprint, and proxy setup matter.

CapMonster Cloud Supported Formats

CapMonster Cloud supports many modern CAPTCHA and anti-bot challenge types, including:

  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • reCAPTCHA Enterprise
  • reCAPTCHA click tasks
  • Complex image click tasks
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • Cloudflare Challenge
  • Cloudflare Waiting Room
  • Amazon AWS WAF
  • GeeTest
  • DataDome
  • Tencent / TenDI
  • Yidun
  • MTCaptcha
  • ALTCHA
  • FunCaptcha
  • Friendly Captcha
  • Imperva / Incapsula
  • Binance
  • Alibaba CAPTCHA
  • Text CAPTCHA

CapMonster Cloud API and Integration

CapMonster Cloud uses a JSON API and has examples for common programming languages. It also has browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox.

It is a strong option if your stack already uses Puppeteer, Selenium, Playwright, or other browser automation tools.

CapMonster Cloud Proxy Integration

CapMonster says proxy is included in the price for many tasks, which lowers the amount of extra setup needed. That said, some tasks still require your own proxy details. The FunCaptcha documentation, for example, shows proxy fields in the request and says the task requires your own proxies.

This makes CapMonster simpler than many services, but some tasks still need their own proxies.

Anti-Captcha

Anti-Captcha is one of the oldest human-powered CAPTCHA solving services still operating. It has been around since 2007 and still positions itself as a worker-based CAPTCHA solver.

If you want a service that leans on human workers rather than automatic recognition, Anti-Captcha is one of the safer picks.

Best for: human-powered solving and custom CAPTCHA tasks.

Anti-Captcha Pricing and Features

Anti-Captcha lists 99.99% uptime since 2007 and says it is powered by human workers.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
Image CAPTCHA$0.50-$0.70 per 1,000Standard image tasks
reCAPTCHA v2$0.95-$2 per 1,000Price depends on queue and task
reCAPTCHA v3$1-$2 per 1,000Score-based tasks
reCAPTCHA Enterprise v2/v3$5 per 1,000Enterprise tasks
GeeTest$1.80 per 1,000GeeTest challenge
Arkose Labs$3 per 1,000FunCaptcha-style tasks
Cloudflare Turnstile$2 per 1,000Token task
Amazon WAF$2 per 1,000AWS WAF task
Friendly Captcha$2 per 1,000Friendly Captcha task
Prosopo$2 per 1,000Prosopo task
ALTCHA$2 per 1,000ALTCHA task
Custom tasks$2 per 1,000Custom human tasks
Object coordinates$2 per 1,000Click/coordinate tasks

Anti-Captcha Speed

Anti-Captcha lists a 5-second solve time across many task types on its public pricing table. In practice, human-powered solvers are less predictable than automatic solvers because the task is routed to people.

The advantage is flexibility. Human solvers can handle tasks that are harder for machine-only systems, especially custom workflows or visual puzzles that do not fit a standard model.

Anti-Captcha Supported Formats

Anti-Captcha supports:

  • Image CAPTCHAs
  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • reCAPTCHA Enterprise
  • hCaptcha
  • GeeTest
  • Arkose Labs FunCaptcha
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • Amazon WAF
  • Friendly Captcha
  • Prosopo
  • ALTCHA
  • Custom tasks
  • Object-coordinate tasks

Anti-Captcha API and Integration

Anti-Captcha has a full API and docs for task types, including proxyless and proxy-based tasks. It also has browser plugins for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

Its API is not the most modern in the category, but it is mature and widely supported.

Anti-Captcha Proxy Integration

Anti-Captcha supports both proxyless and proxy-based tasks. Proxyless tasks are solved from the worker side. Proxy-based tasks use the proxy you send, which is important when the final token needs to match the same IP or geography as your scraper session.

CapSolver

CapSolver is a fast automatic CAPTCHA solver built around APIs, browser automation, and token-based solving. Its current docs focus heavily on reCAPTCHA, Cloudflare, AWS WAF, DataDome, GeeTest, MTCaptcha, and OCR.

CapSolver does not have the broadest coverage in this list, but it is one of the strongest options for modern token tasks where speed matters.

Best for: Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, AWS WAF, DataDome, and fast API workflows.

CapSolver Pricing & Features

CapSolver prices are listed in USD per 1,000 tokens. It also says reCAPTCHA prices can go as low as $0.65 per 1,000 requests at larger volumes.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
reCAPTCHA v2$0.80 per 1,000Lower volume rates may apply
reCAPTCHA v2 Enterprise$1.00 per 1,000Enterprise task
reCAPTCHA v3$1.00 per 1,000Score-based task
reCAPTCHA v3 Enterprise$3.00 per 1,000Enterprise score task
Cloudflare Turnstile$1.20 per 1,000Token task
Cloudflare Challenge$1.20 per 1,000Cloudflare challenge task
MTCaptcha$3.00 per 1,000MTCaptcha task
GeeTest$1.20 per 1,000GeeTest task
AWS WAF$2.00 per 1,000AWS WAF task
DataDome Slider$2.50 per 1,000DataDome slider task
ImageToText$0.40 per 1,000OCR-style task
VisionEngine$1.50 per 1,000Image recognition task

CapSolver Speed

CapSolver is built for speed. Its product pages list Cloudflare Turnstile at under 3 seconds, reCAPTCHA v3 at under 3 seconds, and reCAPTCHA v2 at under 9 seconds.

As with all automatic solvers, the real-world result depends on the target site, task type, proxy, user agent, cookies, and how closely the solving request matches the original browser session.

CapSolver Supported Formats

CapSolver currently lists support for:

  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • reCAPTCHA Enterprise
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • Cloudflare Challenge
  • AWS WAF
  • DataDome
  • GeeTest
  • MTCaptcha
  • ImageToText
  • VisionEngine

CapSolver’s public pricing page does not currently list hCaptcha or FunCaptcha, so confirm those formats with support before using it for those tasks.

CapSolver API and Integration

CapSolver has a clean API flow built around createTask and result retrieval. It also has browser extension support and automation docs for common scraping stacks.

It is a better fit for developers than casual users.

CapSolver Proxy Integration

CapSolver supports proxy and proxyless task types depending on the CAPTCHA. For score-based or site-bound systems, the quality of your proxy server still affects the solve rate. For harder targets, residential proxies or mobile proxies are usually safer than cheap datacenter IPs.

SolveCaptcha

SolveCaptcha is a hybrid CAPTCHA solver that uses AI for easier tasks and human solvers when needed. It is built to cover a wide range of CAPTCHA types while keeping pricing low for common formats.

Its website is less polished in places, but the current pricing table is detailed and covers many real-world CAPTCHA types.

Best for: low-cost hybrid solving across many common CAPTCHA formats.

SolveCaptcha Pricing and Features

SolveCaptcha lists price and speed by CAPTCHA type. The table below uses its public pricing page.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceListed speed
Image CAPTCHA$0.35 per 1,0001 second
Text CAPTCHA$0.35 per 1,0003 seconds
reCAPTCHA v2$0.55 per 1,0003 seconds

reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible$0.55 per 1,0003 seconds
reCAPTCHA v3$0.80 per 1,0003 seconds
reCAPTCHA Enterprise$0.55 per 1,0003 seconds
Cloudflare Turnstile$0.80 per 1,0002 seconds
Amazon CAPTCHA$0.80 per 1,0003 seconds
GeeTest$0.80 per 1,0005 seconds
Arkose Labs FunCaptcha$2.99-$50 per 1,00016 seconds
ALTCHA$1.45 per 1,00016 seconds
Friendly Captcha$1.45 per 1,0008 seconds
Tencent CAPTCHA$1.45 per 1,00012 seconds
DataDome$1.45 per 1,00011 seconds
MTCaptcha$1.45 per 1,0007 seconds
VK CAPTCHA$1.45 per 1,0004 seconds
Lemin CAPTCHA$1.45 per 1,00048 seconds
Temu CAPTCHA$1.00 per 1,00020 seconds
Slider CAPTCHA$1.20 per 1,0005 seconds

SolveCaptcha Speed

SolveCaptcha lists speeds from 1 second for image CAPTCHA to 48 seconds for Lemin CAPTCHA, depending on the task. The hybrid model is useful because easy tasks can move through AI while harder tasks can be sent to people.

That makes it more flexible than a narrow AI-only solver, but not always as consistent as the strongest automatic tools.

SolveCaptcha Supported Formats

SolveCaptcha supports:

  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v2 Callback
  • reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • reCAPTCHA Enterprise
  • Image CAPTCHA
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • Arkose Labs FunCaptcha
  • Amazon CAPTCHA
  • ALTCHA
  • Friendly Captcha
  • Tencent CAPTCHA
  • DataDome
  • MTCaptcha
  • GeeTest
  • CaptchaFox
  • VK CAPTCHA
  • Lemin CAPTCHA
  • Temu CAPTCHA
  • Slider CAPTCHA
  • Text CAPTCHA

SolveCaptcha API and Integration

SolveCaptcha has an API, browser extension, SDKs, and code examples for Python, Java, C#, C++, JavaScript, Ruby, PHP, and Go.

Its developer experience is functional, though less polished than CapMonster, CapSolver, or 2Captcha.

SolveCaptcha Proxy Integration

SolveCaptcha can handle some tasks without your own proxy, especially when the challenge is solved outside your session. For site-bound tokens, you should expect to match the proxy, session, and user agent used by your scraper.

NopeCHA

NopeCHA is an AI CAPTCHA solver built around browser extensions, recognition APIs, and token APIs. It is not the same kind of service as 2Captcha or Anti-Captcha. It is more focused on automatic solving through Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Python, Node.js, and its API.

NopeCHA is worth including because it has strong browser-extension coverage, a low-cost subscription model, and support for common recognition and token tasks.

Best for: browser extension workflows and low-cost AI recognition.

NopeCHA Pricing and Features

NopeCHA uses a subscription model instead of simple per-1,000 task pricing.

PlanPublic priceIncluded volume
Free$0Up to 100 recognitions every 24 hours
Starter$4.99 per month2,000 solves per day
Pro$19.99 per month20,000 solves per day
Business$49.99 per month80,000 solves per day
Enterprise$99.99 per month200,000 solves per day

Its pricing page says one credit can process up to 16 images for one CAPTCHA challenge.

NopeCHA Speed

NopeCHA says its service is fully automated through AI and lists fast results as a main advantage. Its docs also show a cost and speed table for recognition and token tasks, though that table is marked as last updated in January 2025.

Use NopeCHA for the formats it directly supports. Do not treat it as a blanket replacement for full-service human solvers.

NopeCHA Supported Formats

NopeCHA lists support across recognition and token APIs, including:

  • Arkose FunCaptcha recognition
  • AWS WAF CAPTCHA recognition
  • Google reCAPTCHA recognition
  • Google reCAPTCHA v2 token
  • Google reCAPTCHA v3 token
  • hCaptcha recognition
  • hCaptcha token
  • Text-based CAPTCHA
  • PerimeterX / Human recognition
  • GeeTest CAPTCHA
  • Lemin CAPTCHA
  • Cloudflare Turnstile token

NopeCHA API and Integration

NopeCHA has browser extensions, a Token API, a Python SDK, and a JavaScript SDK. It is compatible with browser automation tools including Selenium, Puppeteer, and Playwright.

This makes it especially useful for users who want extension-first solving rather than a traditional task marketplace.

NopeCHA Proxy Integration

NopeCHA's docs note that reputable IP addresses can reduce credit usage, while high-risk IP addresses may require more credits for reCAPTCHA or FunCaptcha. That is a direct proxy-quality issue. If the IP looks bad, the solver may spend more work and still fail more often.

NoCaptcha AI

NoCaptcha AI is an AI CAPTCHA solver focused on image recognition, OCR, browser extensions, and selected token tasks. It is very fast for supported visual tasks, but it should not be described as a full token solver for every modern CAPTCHA.

NoCaptcha AI's current pricing table says reCAPTCHA v3 token is still coming soon, while Enterprise requires contacting sales.

Best for: fast image recognition and OCR-style CAPTCHA tasks.

NoCaptcha AI Pricing and Features

NoCaptcha AI lists free testing credit, 99.9% uptime, browser extensions, and support through Discord, Telegram, and email.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
reCAPTCHA v2 recognition$0.14 per 1,000Recognition task
reCAPTCHA v2 audio$0.28 per 1,000Audio task
Image To Text$0.16 per 1,000OCR-style task
MTCaptcha recognition$0.16 per 1,000Recognition task
GeeTest recognition$0.22 per 1,000Recognition task
AWS WAF recognition$0.30 per 1,000Recognition task
BLS Captcha token$0.18 per 1,000Token task

NoCaptcha AI Speed

NoCaptcha AI is fast on the tasks it supports. Its pricing table lists sub-second speeds for reCAPTCHA v2 recognition, Image To Text, MTCaptcha recognition, AWS WAF recognition, and BLS Captcha.

That speed comes from focusing on recognition tasks. If you need full token generation for every CAPTCHA family, use a broader solver.

NoCaptcha AI Supported Formats

NoCaptcha AI currently lists:

  • reCAPTCHA v2 recognition
  • reCAPTCHA v2 audio
  • Image To Text
  • MTCaptcha recognition
  • MTCaptcha token coming soon
  • GeeTest recognition
  • GeeTest token coming soon
  • AWS WAF recognition
  • AWS WAF token coming soon
  • BLS Captcha token
  • Binance image
  • TikTok image
  • Cloudflare token
  • Turnstile token

NoCaptcha AI API and Integration

NoCaptcha AI has an API, browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, and documentation for image tasks and selected token tasks.

It takes more setup than a human solver. For many challenges, your script still needs to collect images or task data correctly before sending them to the API.

NoCaptcha AI Proxy Integration

Proxies are less central for pure recognition tasks because NoCaptcha AI is often solving an image or OCR subtask, not visiting the target page itself. For token tasks, proxy quality and session matching can still matter.

Death By Captcha

Death By Captcha is an older CAPTCHA solving service with a hybrid system, API clients, browser extensions, and support for many CAPTCHA formats. Its interface is less polished than modern solvers like CapMonster or CapSolver, but it still has enough coverage and history to belong in a best CAPTCHA solver comparison.

Its strongest angle is legacy reliability, API compatibility, and coverage for older workflows.

Best for: legacy integrations, broad API client support, and audio CAPTCHA.

Death By Captcha Pricing and Features

Death By Captcha says it has over 90% correctness, billing only for correct solves, and 12+ years of 24/7 availability.

CAPTCHA typePublic priceNotes
Normal CAPTCHA$0.99-$2 per 1,000Standard CAPTCHA tasks
reCAPTCHA v2/v3/Invisible$2.89 per 1,000Google CAPTCHA tasks
GeeTest v3/v4$2.89 per 1,000GeeTest tasks
Cloudflare Turnstile$2.89 per 1,000Token task
TextCAPTCHA$2.89 per 1,000Text task
Amazon WAF$2.89 per 1,000AWS WAF task
Friendly Captcha$2.89 per 1,000Friendly Captcha task
DataDome$2.89 per 1,000DataDome task
MTCaptcha$2.89 per 1,000MTCaptcha task
Audio CAPTCHA$0.59 per 1,000Audio task

Death By Captcha Speed

Death By Captcha publishes live status on its homepage. At the time checked, it showed 1 second for normal CAPTCHAs, 31 seconds for reCAPTCHA v2/v3, and 15 seconds for other tasks.

That makes it slower than the best automatic solvers for modern token tasks, but still useful when coverage and legacy API support matter more than raw speed.

Death By Captcha Supported Formats

Death By Captcha supports:

  • Normal CAPTCHA
  • reCAPTCHA v2
  • reCAPTCHA v3
  • Invisible reCAPTCHA
  • GeeTest v3/v4
  • Cloudflare Turnstile
  • TextCAPTCHA
  • Audio CAPTCHA
  • Lemin Cropped
  • Capy Puzzle
  • Amazon WAF
  • Cyber Siara
  • MTCaptcha
  • Cutcaptcha
  • Friendly Captcha
  • DataDome
  • Tencent
  • Atb CAPTCHA

Several of these task types are marked as beta in the API docs, so test the exact format you need before relying on it at scale.

Death By Captcha API and Integration

Death By Captcha has clients for .NET, C, C++, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Node.js, Go, command-line tools, and AutoIt. It supports HTTP and socket-based flows.

This is one of the reasons it still appears in automation stacks that were built years ago.

Death By Captcha Proxy Integration

Death By Captcha can solve standard CAPTCHA tasks without much proxy handling, but modern token-based challenges still depend on session quality. For those tasks, the same rule applies: if the scraper IP or browser session is weak, the solver result may not be enough.

Conclusion

There is no single best CAPTCHA solver for every job. The right choice depends on the CAPTCHA type, the volume you need to solve, the speed you expect, and how clean the rest of your scraping setup is.

Key Takeaways

  • CAPTCHA solvers usually fall into three groups: AI solvers, human-powered solvers, and hybrid services.
  • 2Captcha is the strongest broad-coverage option because it supports many CAPTCHA types and uses AI with human fallback.
  • CapMonster Cloud and CapSolver are better fits for automatic solving, especially when speed and API workflows matter.
  • Anti-Captcha and Death By Captcha are stronger for human-powered or legacy workflows.
  • Proxy quality still matters. A CAPTCHA solver can return a valid token, but weak IPs, bad fingerprints, or mismatched sessions can still cause the request to fail.

If you want the widest coverage, start with 2Captcha. If you want automatic solving at scale, CapMonster Cloud is one of the strongest options. If you want a long-running human-powered service, Anti-Captcha is still a strong pick. If you are focused on Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, AWS WAF, and DataDome token workflows, CapSolver is worth testing. If price matters and you still want hybrid coverage, SolveCaptcha is a good option. If you want extension-first solving, look at NopeCHA. If you only need fast visual recognition, NoCaptcha AI can make sense. If you need an older API with many client libraries, Death By Captcha still has a place.

The main thing to remember is that CAPTCHA solving does not work in isolation. A solver can return a valid result and still fail if your proxy, fingerprint, cookies, or session do not match the target site well enough. Good CAPTCHA solving depends on the solver, proxy quality, and session consistency.

FAQ

We've got answers.

Quick answers to the most common questions about this topic.

Most CAPTCHA solvers charge per 1,000 solved CAPTCHAs. Simple image CAPTCHAs can cost under $1 per 1,000, while reCAPTCHA, Cloudflare Turnstile, FunCaptcha, AWS WAF, and DataDome usually cost more. Prices also change by provider, volume, CAPTCHA type, and whether the task uses AI or human workers.

AI CAPTCHA solvers are usually faster and cheaper for supported CAPTCHA types. Human CAPTCHA solvers are slower, but they can handle some visual or custom tasks that automatic systems may miss. Hybrid services use AI first and send harder tasks to human workers when needed.

Yes, several CAPTCHA solver services support Cloudflare Turnstile. Turnstile is not exactly the same as a traditional CAPTCHA, but many solvers now treat it as a token-based challenge. The solve rate still depends on the target site, session quality, browser fingerprint, and proxy quality.

Most major CAPTCHA solvers support reCAPTCHA v2 and reCAPTCHA v3. hCaptcha support is more inconsistent across public pricing pages and docs, so it should be checked provider by provider. If hCaptcha is a major part of your use case, confirm support before choosing a solver.

A token can fail if the solver request does not match the original browser session. This can happen because of a bad proxy, mismatched user agent, weak browser fingerprint, expired token, wrong site key, or cookies that do not match the session. CAPTCHA solving works best when the solver, proxy, browser, and session setup all line up.
