CaptchaNo vs
2Captcha

What the comparison actually shows

2Captcha publishes a starting rate of $0.50 per 1,000. CaptchaNo starts at $2.85 per 1,000 for reCAPTCHA v2, falling to $1.90 per 1,000 at 1,000,000 solves a month. A headline rate is not the number you pay, though — what matters is the rate on the challenge types you actually hit, and whether failures are billed. We bill only on successful solves, so your effective cost is the list rate divided by your success rate.

Coverage

2Captcha publicly documents the major challenge types, so coverage is not the deciding factor between us. Publishes per-type ranges rather than flat rates; reCAPTCHA v2 is listed as a $1–$2.99 band.

Speed

Speed is where we compete. Our median solve times are published per challenge type on each solver page and measured on our own infrastructure. We deliberately do not publish head-to-head benchmark numbers against 2Captcha: we cannot run their account under controlled conditions, and a benchmark we cannot reproduce is marketing, not evidence. Run both against your own targets and measure accepted completions rather than returned tokens.

Building a product on top

If you are reselling or embedding solving in a platform, check the terms before you commit. Some services in this category prohibit resale outright, which makes them unusable as infrastructure for an agency or a SaaS. CaptchaNo runs a documented reseller programme with sub-accounts, per-user balances and your own markup.
