Cloud browsers and web APIs for AI agents
Spin up scalable, sandboxed headless browsers on demand and drive them with Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, or the Stagehand framework.
Find relevant websites from a single query and convert any URL into clean HTML, JSON, or markdown built for LLM context.
Authenticate agents and get through login walls, CAPTCHAs, and anti-bot systems so workflows do not stall mid-task.
Inspect sessions with live view, replay, structured logs, and debugging across prompts, model calls, and browser actions.
Cloud Linux VMs built for developers and their AI agents
SSH into Ubuntu-compatible machines with root access, apt and systemd, then keep them running as long-lived servers instead of short-lived containers.
Buy vCPU and RAM once, then create as many VMs as you need inside the pool and fork them quickly for parallel agent work.
Expose internal apps privately or publish them publicly on *.exe.xyz subdomains, with auth and secret management handled for you.
Attach OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Fireworks or Deepgram keys so agents running on your VMs have model access configured automatically.
The AI developer cloud for GPU pods, serverless inference and clustering
#1Free / Open-sourceOpen-source alternative providing ready-made agent loops, but requires self-hosting or managing your own underlying browser infrastructure.
SpecialistAllows custom containerized browser deployments with extreme scalability, but requires manual setup rather than managed browser APIs.
Offers built-in agentic web automation and search features, but is less focused on raw low-level browser infrastructure control.
Provides reliable remote Chrome sessions for automation, but lacks the robust developer debugging toolkit built into Browserbase.
Excels at massive-scale web scraping and proxy management, but is less tailored for real-time interactive AI agent sessions.
SpecialistSpecializes in anti-detect browser profiles and persistent logins, but offers fewer developer-focused APIs for autonomous agent workflows.
SpecialistAI DevOps engineer that deploys and scales your apps
Provides similar headless browser API access and scalability, but lacks Browserbase's specialized session debugging tools.
The low-cost cloud sandbox where AI agents actually live
Self-hosted cloud development environments and AI coding agents for enterprise teams
Low-cost cloud GPUs with per-minute instances and per-second sandboxes for AI workloads.
