To kick the tires, there is a cheap one-week trial includes 1,000 solves, which is plenty enough to test how well it works against your sites. Once it works, upgrading is a quick step in the Members Area.

Selenium is a go-to for browser automation, and CapSkip fits into it cleanly. You keep the WebDriver logic unchanged and delegate the challenge to CapSkip whenever one shows up, so the run keeps going without human input.

The browser extension brings solving straight into the browser and Chromium-based browsers such as Brave, Opera and Edge. If you do manual work or light automation, it handles challenges without any configuration.
