Residential proxies and residential ones behave differently under anti-bot pressure. Whatever mix your setup uses, CapSkip handles the CAPTCHA on your machine without adding a remote dependency to the chain.

A migration plan keeps the switch smooth: repoint your API URL at CapSkip, verify a few live solves, and then flip production. Since the request format matches major services, the bulk of the work is essentially done.

Under the hood, reCAPTCHA v3 assigns a score from observed behavior instead of a single click. Getting a usable token calls for a solver designed for that approach, which is exactly what CapSkip is built for.

Selenium remains a staple for browser automation, and CapSkip drops into it cleanly. Your your driver flow unchanged and delegate the CAPTCHA to CapSkip when one appears, so the run keeps going with no human steps.
