Some months ago, I had problems with captcha. I tried to write an application to access many drugstores and compare the price, but captcha with login system fail the mission.

Do you have any piece of advice for me?

Not sure about the currently available tools, given the break-neck speed of AI progress, but a couple of years ago I built a scraper that used a captcha-solving service, they sell something like 1000 solutions for $10, it was super cheap. The process was a bit slow because they were using humans to solve the captchas, but it worked really well
