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).
