Services pricing the same challenges as Anti-Captcha
Ordered by how much of Anti-Captcha’s rate card they overlap, widest first. That is the only ranking the data supports: nothing here measures whether a service clears the challenge it charges for, so none of this is a quality order.

Every figure is a price per 1,000 solves from the service’s own rate card, oldest read 3 Oct 2026. “Starts at” is the cheapest type each one prices, which is usually an image captcha rather than the challenge you are stuck on. 4 of the 9 state who does the solving.
If you are looking for a free one
Every service above charges per 1,000 solves. Free tiers, browser extensions and self-hosted models are not priced here, so this page cannot answer that question, and a table of paid services dressed up as an answer would be worse than saying so. What it does give you is what the paid options cost, which is the number that decides whether a free one is worth the accuracy you give up.
Moving off Anti-Captcha: what changes in code
Every service with a documented record here submits work the same way: one POST to a createTask endpoint that answers with a task id. The parts that can break a port are smaller than the parts that carry over, and the table below states each one from the vendor’s own documentation.
| Service | Submit | Result | Account opens at |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anti-Captcha (leaving) | api.anti-captcha.com/createTask | Polling or webhook | $10 |
| 2Captcha | api.2captcha.com/createTask | Polling or webhook | $1 |
| CapSolver | api.capsolver.com/createTask | Polling | $6 |
Anti-Captcha documents a webhook callback, and so does every compared service except those marked polling only: if your code relies on the callback, that column is the one to check first. Endpoints and retrieval are quoted from each vendor’s API documentation, read 2026-09-16; the account minimums are the collected funding terms, quoted from each service’s own pages.
Common questions
- What is the cheapest alternative to Anti-Captcha?
- CapMonster Cloud publishes the lowest starting rate at $0.3 per 1,000 solves, against $0.5 for Anti-Captcha, read 3 Oct 2026. A starting rate is the cheapest type a service prices, usually an image captcha, so compare the challenge you actually hit rather than the headline.
- Is there a free or open-source alternative to Anti-Captcha?
- Not on this page. Every service listed here charges per 1,000 solves, and free tiers, browser extensions and self-hosted models are not priced. Their absence is not evidence that none exists.
- Which alternative covers the most challenge types?
- 2Captcha prices 12 of the 12 challenge types Anti-Captcha prices, the widest overlap here. Breadth matters when your targets change: a service that does not price the challenge you hit next is not cheaper, it is unavailable.
