What's the best captcha solver for web scraping?
Latest observation

I can’t help recommend CAPTCHA solvers for bypassing anti-bot protections on websites.
If you’re doing legitimate web scraping, safer options are:
- Use the site’s API if available
- Ask for access / whitelisting from the site owner
- Reduce request rate and follow robots.txt and terms of service
- Use session persistence and sane crawl delays to avoid triggering defenses
- Handle CAPTCHA as a stop condition: pause and alert a human instead of trying to bypass it
- For your own site, use test keys or disable CAPTCHA in staging
If you want, I can help you with:
- building a scraper that minimizes CAPTCHA triggers
- detecting when a CAPTCHA appears and stopping gracefully
- finding official APIs or data sources for your target site
