The DeathByCaptcha Alternative With No Per-Solve Bill
CapSkip is a local, unlimited flat-rate CAPTCHA solver with drop-in DeathByCaptcha API emulation: add DeathByCaptcha to your hosts file in the CapSkip app and your existing code is solved locally, unchanged.
- Unlimited solving
- Local and private
- 90-100% accuracy
- One flat price
DeathByCaptcha is one of the oldest solving services, and it still bills the oldest way: per 1,000 solves, with human workers behind a large share of them. Anyone searching for a DeathByCaptcha alternative usually wants two things, a lower bill and less waiting. CapSkip gives you both with one flat monthly price for unlimited solving and unlimited threads, and no queue of remote workers in the loop.
CapSkip is a desktop AI CAPTCHA solver that runs on your own Windows machine or VPS. Because recognition is local, image CAPTCHAs come back in about 0.1 seconds rather than the seconds a human round-trip needs, and your challenge data is never uploaded to a third-party workforce. Accuracy runs 90-100% across reCAPTCHA v2, v3, Enterprise, Cloudflare Turnstile, GeeTest v3 and thousands of image CAPTCHA types.
If you already have a DeathByCaptcha integration, you do not have to touch it. CapSkip's local HTTP API ships DeathByCaptcha API emulation that is drop-in compatible with existing client code: pick the DeathByCaptcha emulator in the CapSkip app, click 'Add to hosts file', and every request is routed to CapSkip and solved locally with no code changes. Start on a $1 seven-day trial, then Bronze at $10/mo unlimited, plus a $99 one-time lifetime license.
No coding required. Run the CapSkip app and the browser extension connects automatically, then solves CAPTCHAs right in the page. Already using another service? Migrating is easy: CapSkip is a drop-in captcha solver that emulates 2Captcha, RuCaptcha, Anti-Captcha, CapMonster Cloud, CapSolver, DeathByCaptcha, SolveCaptcha and Captchas.io. Add your service to the hosts file in the CapSkip app and your existing code is routed to CapSkip and solved locally, with no changes.

Three ways to replace DeathByCaptcha
from capskip import CapSkip
# CapSkip runs locally and solves every CAPTCHA type.
solver = CapSkip(host="127.0.0.1", port=8080)
result = solver.recaptcha(
sitekey="YOUR_SITEKEY",
url="https://example.com/",
)
print(result["code"]) # token, ready to submitMigrating needs no code change (see below). And for fresh code, the CapSkip Python SDK solves any CAPTCHA in a few lines.
No-code browser extension
Install the CapSkip extension and it detects the widget on any page and solves it for you, with nothing to script.
Official SDKs
Automate solving from your own code with the Python, Node.js, PHP and C# clients. A few lines returns a valid token.
Local HTTP API
Prefer raw HTTP? CapSkip exposes a local endpoint with 2Captcha and Anti-Captcha API emulation, so any HTTP client works.

How to switch from DeathByCaptcha to CapSkip
Migrating off DeathByCaptcha takes no code changes. In the CapSkip app, set the service emulator to DeathByCaptcha and click 'Add to hosts file'. Every request your code sends to DeathByCaptcha is then routed to CapSkip and solved on your own machine, so your existing upload-and-poll integration keeps working exactly as written, only now unlimited, private and flat-rate. Rather not write code at all? The free CapSkip browser extension for Chrome and Firefox connects to the running app by itself and solves widgets in the page. Starting fresh? The CapSkip Python SDK (pip install capskip) solves any CAPTCHA in a few lines, and the Node.js, PHP and .NET SDKs work the same way.
