Three things browserless.io can't do at the same time

Cheap pricing, high anti-bot success, and real AI-agent SDKs — usually you pick one. We give you all three.

Cheaper, predictable pricing

Per-request credits, not 30-second units. No premium-domain surcharges. Public migration calculator: paste your Browserless invoice, see the savings.

Frequently asked questions

How are you different from Browserless?+
We bill per successful request rather than per 30-second unit, publish a public weekly success-rate dashboard, and ship an Apache-2.0 self-host image — no commercial license fee. The connect URL change is one line.
How are you different from Browserbase?+
Per-request billing instead of hourly buckets, optional self-hosting, and a Stagehand-compatibility mode so existing Browserbase code runs against our gateway with one URL change.
Do you have a free tier?+
1,000 credits per month, 2 concurrent browsers, no credit card required. Free forever.
Can I self-host?+
Yes. Apache-2.0 Docker image on Docker Hub and GHCR. A Helm chart is included for Kubernetes.
How do you handle anti-bot detection?+
Multi-vendor rotation across native fingerprints, 2Captcha, CapSolver, AntiCaptcha, and our own TLS/JA3 stack. When one engine degrades, traffic reroutes within 15 minutes — and our /benchmarks page publishes the weekly numbers.
Which automation libraries do you support?+
Puppeteer, Playwright, and any Chrome DevTools Protocol client. We ship official SDKs for TypeScript and Python, plus a Stagehand-compatibility mode and an MCP server for AI agents.
