Proxy support is often necessary for serious automation, and CapSkip works with proxies without fuss. You can send traffic the way your setup needs while still solving CAPTCHAs locally, so behavior natural across sessions.

At its core, a CAPTCHA solver interprets a challenge and produces the answer a site is looking for, so an hands-off tool can continue. What sets CapSkip apart is the work stays locally - no challenge data leaves your hardware, and you avoid per-solve charges. This mix of control and predictable cost is hard to beat for steady workloads.

A Selenium setup remains a staple for browser automation, and CapSkip drops into it cleanly. You keep the WebDriver flow unchanged and hand off the challenge to CapSkip whenever one shows up, so the session continues with no manual steps.

Token expiration often catch out automations that fetch too early. The trick is to grab the token right before the moment you use it, and CapSkip hands back fresh results fast enough to make that simple.
