About Buster
Buster adds a button to reCAPTCHA challenges that switches to the audio version and transcribes it with speech recognition, then fills in the answer. It is aimed at people who find image challenges slow or hard to complete, including users with visual difficulties.
The extension is available for Chrome, Edge and Firefox, and its source code is published on GitHub. It is a helper for a person at the keyboard, not a tool for automated bulk solving.
