Browserless

Browserless is a cloud browser-automation platform that runs managed Chromium, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and WebKit browsers for Puppeteer, Playwright, and Selenium clients, plus a GraphQL-based stealth automation layer (BrowserQL) and a family of REST APIs for screenshots, PDFs, content scraping, function execution, performance audits, smart scraping, search, mapping, and full-site crawling. A built-in MCP server exposes browser tooling to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other agentic clients. The company also maintains a popular open-source Docker image of the same name (13k+ GitHub stars), residential proxies, CAPTCHA solving, session profiles, recordings, and hybrid live-URL workflows. Target customers are AI startups, agent developers, web scrapers, RPA teams, QA / monitoring teams, and enterprises running production browser automation at scale, with free, prototyping, starter, scale, and enterprise plans (including self-hosted licensing).

Browserless publishes 18 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Browser REST APIs API, Management REST APIs API, Agent API, and 15 more. Tagged areas include Browser Automation, Browser Infrastructure, AI Agents, Web Scraping, and BrowserQL.

The Browserless catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

Browserless’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, engineering blog, pricing, changelog, signup flow, and 26 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-11-06 · rubric v0.27.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
  • Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
  • Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes
  • A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
  • Typed Event Surface +6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks
  • Agent Skills +5 pts — skills artifact present, graded by who authored it
  • Agentic Commerce Well-Known Document +5 pts — a parsing /.well-known/ucp.json or acp.json declaring a version and at least one service, OR (0.27) a live x402 payment challenge from _data/x402-adoption.json — `self` when its endpoints are on the provider's own domain, `platform` when they are on a vendor's

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Software Supply Chain (SBOM, Signing, Open Source Security) builds-on 19.7 1 -

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

Standards implemented 4

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
