Digital by Default verdict

About

Browserbase provides managed cloud infrastructure for running headless browsers at scale, purpose-built for AI agents that need to navigate, interact with, and extract data from live websites. Each session runs in an isolated cloud container with persistent cookies, configurable browser fingerprints, and optional residential proxy routing to minimize bot detection. The Stagehand open-source framework — which crossed 50,000 GitHub stars — integrates with Browserbase to enable natural language browser automation. Live session viewing and step-by-step replay tools let developers debug agent behavior visually without server access. Billing is per browser-minute, so teams pay only for active usage. Browserbase has raised $68 million in funding and processes tens of millions of sessions monthly across 1,000+ customers. Free tier available; plans start at $20/month.
