What each charges, on the challenges both price
Widest disagreement first. Each price carries the service’s own label, kept word for word, because two rows naming the same challenge are not always the same work: a score band, a grid variant or an invisible version can carry its own rate.
Variant-specific conditions appear where collected. An absent condition remains unknown; required external proxy traffic costs are separate from solve rates.

Every figure is a price per 1,000 solves taken from the service’s own rate card, oldest read 3 Oct 2026. The widest gap is Amazon WAF captcha, where the two are about 1.4 times apart. CapMonster Cloud is lower on 3 of 7. A cheaper rate that clears fewer challenges costs more per page you keep, and neither publishes a success figure you could check that against.

How much each one covers
