The developer API is designed to emulate the endpoints of major CAPTCHA-solving services. In practical terms, scripts and tools that already target other services are able to switch to CapSkip with little more than a URL change and zero coding.

Classic image and text CAPTCHAs remain everywhere, from sign-up pages to checkout flows. CapSkip solves thousands of image Unlimited Captcha Solving variants on your own hardware, usually in about a tenth of a second. That kind of speed matters when you process large numbers of challenges.

Turnstile runs lightweight challenges which are meant to separate people from bots without classic puzzles. Getting past them dependably calls for a dedicated solver, and CapSkip covers Turnstile locally.

The developer API was built to mirror the request format of major CAPTCHA-solving services. What this means, scripts and tools that already call other services are able to switch to CapSkip needing minimal changes and no new code.

Used responsibly, CAPTCHA solving powers valid use cases such as QA, accessibility, and authorized scraping. Always worth honoring a target's terms and relevant rules; used that way, a solver is another automation helper.
