Meet Browserbase
Browserbase suits developers who need reliable cloud browsers for AI agents instead of managing headless browsers themselves. It pairs with Stagehand, its SDK for natural-language browser actions. It is infrastructure for builders, not a no-code assistant.
A practical workflow
- Create a free account and start one cloud session
- Connect your existing Playwright script or Stagehand code
- Run a small task and inspect the session
- Add proxies or concurrency only when needed
Illustrative input

Access and alternatives
The Free plan includes three concurrent browsers, one browser hour, three agent runs and a 15-minute session limit, without captcha solving. Developer and Startup plans add hours and proxies, and usage beyond included amounts is charged.
