Refresh the captcha instead of retrying the same image
2026-01-13 · Captchas
The same image produces the same reading. A new picture is the useful second try.
The solver is stable. The same bytes and the same options return the same text. Calling again spends another credit when the first answer was reliable, and the letters do not improve.
Refresh the portal captcha when the flag is false, when the portal rejects the text, or when the error is invalid_image. Solve the new picture.
A captcha that the portal has expired is the same situation. Your reading can be perfect and still be refused, because the portal has forgotten that image. Fetch another and submit it promptly.
Save the numeric id on the response. A wrong reliable answer can be reported within 48 hours and the credit comes back, inside the daily cap.
