Price per 1,000 solved CAPTCHAs on each service's own price list; bold marks the lowest top price for the type. "–" means the list has no price for it. CapMonster Cloud's image price is its Text CAPTCHA (image to text); Anti-Captcha's are its pay-as-you-go prices.
Why are some prices a range?
- 2Captcha prints a range for reCAPTCHA v2, reCAPTCHA Enterprise and image CAPTCHAs ($1.00 to $2.99 for reCAPTCHA v2) without saying what sets the price within it. Its reCAPTCHA v3 price depends on the score asked for: $1.45 for a score of 0.3 or less and $2.99 above 0.3.
- Anti-Captcha: "We provide automatic discounts based on your daily captcha volumes." For reCAPTCHA v3, "Cost depends on the V3 quality score."
- CapSolver: "Check our popular packages — save up to 50% compared to pay per use!" The page doesn't price the packages, so the table uses pay-per-use.
- DeathByCaptcha gives a range for image CAPTCHAs and says "Get discounts on bulk orders (contact us)".
Do you pay for CAPTCHAs that fail?
No, on the services that say: DeathByCaptcha says you "pay for correctly solved CAPTCHAs only!", 2Captcha "pay only for solved captchas", and CapMonster Cloud bills by "the number of captchas solved".
What do scraping and browser APIs charge for CAPTCHAs?
- Unblocker APIs such as Bright Data's Web Unlocker ($1.50 per 1,000 requests on pay as you go) include CAPTCHA handling in the price of each successful request.
- Steel charges $3.00 per 1,000 solves on Launch and $1.00 per 1,000 solves on Scale, on top of browser time.
- Browserless uses 10 units per successful solve, $20.00 per 1,000 at its Prototyping plan's overage rate.
- Browserbase solves CAPTCHAs automatically on its Developer, Startup and Scale plans, not on Free.
