QA engineers hit CAPTCHAs too, particularly on staging environments that mirror production. Rather than disabling those tests, they are able to let CapSkip handle the challenge so coverage stays intact.

The GeeTest slider puzzles can be notoriously awkward for automation, so having a solver that covers them helps a lot. CapSkip handles GeeTest locally, so scripts that rely on these sites do not break when the puzzle appears.
