The browser extension brings solving right into Chrome, Firefox and Chromium-based browsers like Brave, Opera and Edge. If you do hands-on work or quick automation, it handles challenges without any setup.
GeeTest challenges are notoriously tricky for automation, so running a solver that covers them is a real plus. CapSkip solves GeeTest locally, so workflows that depend on those sites keep running whenever the puzzle appears.
Cloudflare Turnstile is now a frequent barrier on sites that want to deter bots and skip traditional image puzzles. CapSkip clears Turnstile on your machine within seconds, handling the challenge modes. For automation that keep hitting Turnstile, that takes away a major roadblock.
