Browser Use cloud browsers have automatic CAPTCHA solving built in. There is nothing to configure — on the browser, the agent driving it, or your automation library (Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium). It is on by default on every plan, including the free tier (see Billing). The best defense is not tripping a challenge in the first place — that is what stealth handles (anti-fingerprinting and bot-detection bypass). This page covers what happens when a CAPTCHA or anti-bot system appears anyway: we solve it, and we lead the field on success rate.

​
Success rate by vendor

Across the anti-bot and CAPTCHA systems agents hit most, Browser Use has the highest overall success rate at 81% — and the best against Cloudflare (93%) and PerimeterX (81%).
Heatmap of success rate by vendor. Browser Use leads overall at 81%, with 93% on Cloudflare and 81% on PerimeterX, ahead of Anchor, Onkernel, Browserless, Steel, Browserbase, and Hyperbrowser.

Success rate by vendor, Browser Use vs other cloud browser providers

Full methodology in We stealth benchmarked every major cloud browser provider.

​
Supported CAPTCHA types

These are the interactive CAPTCHA widgets solved automatically, distinct from the anti-bot systems above (Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Akamai) that gate a site before a widget ever appears: All are handled on by default — no captcha_type parameter or per-widget configuration.

FAQ

Does the open-source library solve CAPTCHAs? Without cloud browsers, open-source agents have no stealth or CAPTCHA solving. Giving your agent stealth is easy: run it on a cloud browser — create a browser and point the library at its CDP URL. Can I use a third-party CAPTCHA solver? No, we do not support third-party CAPTCHA solver plugins on the browser. If your CAPTCHAs are not being solved properly, reach out and we will look into it. Do I need to enable anything for CAPTCHA solving? No. Cloud browsers solve CAPTCHAs for you automatically.
