Browserbase

About Browserbase

Overview

Browserbase is a browser infrastructure platform that gives AI agents access to the whole web, making the web as reliable and programmable as an API. It powers agents at 10,000+ companies that need to search, navigate, and act on live websites.

The platform combines three core capabilities: the Search API for agent-optimized web search, the Fetch API that converts any URL into HTML, JSON, or markdown, and Browser-as-a-Service, which spins up real browser sessions that interact with sites like a human.

Key Benefits

  • Handles auth, flows, and dynamic content that break simple scrapers
  • Mirrors human interaction to navigate unpredictable interfaces
  • Accesses the 85% of the web that traditional APIs cannot reach, login walls included
  • Scales to thousands of concurrent browser sessions for parallel work
  • Adjusts to website updates and changes over time
  • Runs anywhere with production-scale infrastructure

How It Works

Create a browser session and configure your environment, then connect your AI model so it can interpret pages, make decisions, and drive interactions autonomously. Execute your first task end-to-end, from navigation to action, and see results directly in the browser.

Use Cases

  • Researchers spin up thousands of concurrent sessions to return answers at scale
  • Engineering teams run continuous click-through tests to catch broken flows before users do
  • Job seekers build agents that apply to roles on their behalf
  • Analysts watch the whole web to track prices, job listings, and competitor moves
  • Operations teams upload files and process records across hundreds of sites in parallel
  • Compliance teams verify business registries for KYC
