At its core, a CAPTCHA solver interprets a challenge and returns the answer a site expects, so an hands-off tool can continue. The difference with CapSkip is that everything happens locally - nothing is shipped off to a stranger, and there are no per-solve charges. That combination of privacy and predictable cost turns out to be hard to beat for steady automation.
