The full power of automation libraries and headless browsers, but with fully managed hosting. Write the scripts and we’ll do the rest.
RAM, CPU and GPU are fully managed to stop browsers devouring resources.
Choose your browser version, without messing with packages or dependencies.
Avoid bot blockers with our residential proxy network and other stealth settings.
Scaling and load balancing is handled for you to absorb any traffic surges.
Use the dashboard and live sessions to keep your browsers running smoothly.
Chrome’s zombie processes are cleared away to stop servers from clogging up.
Run any Puppeteer or Playwright script, no matter the complexity
Other browser automation tools only offer basic capabilities. If they don’t cover your use case, you’re left plugging your own library and headless browsers into their system. Browserless is different. We take a browser-first approach, giving you the most powerful possible headless deployment without having to touch any DevOps.
Perform any action, no matter how complex
Whether you need to click buttons, fill in forms, navigate tabs or anything else, Browserless will run the script.
Wrap automation scripts in a REST API
You don’t even have to use with a whole library, just run serverless functions with our /function API.
Hybrid automations for remote interactions
Allow user interactions with remote browsers, for tasks like authentication workflows.
Keep browsers alive with session reconnects
Switch back and forth between browsers by using keepalive to keep a process open.
Create persistent caches and cookies
Manage your cookies between sessions to help get past the bot detectors.
Use JavaScript browser rendering
Run scripts on any site, including single page applications using our javascript enabled headless browsers.
Use your existing scripts with a quick connection change
Puppeteer Connect
If you're using puppeteer's launch method, simply change it to connect and specify it to use browserless.
Playwright
If you're using playwright's launch method, simply change it to connect and specify it to use browserless.
REST APIs
Run a cURL request to quickly start using an API call
1// From inside your Node application
2import puppeteer from 'puppeteer';
3
4// Replace puppeteer.launch with puppeteer.connect
5const browser = await puppeteer.connect({
6 browserWSEndpoint: 'wss://chrome.browserless.io'
7});
8
9// The rest of your script remains the same
10const page = await browser.newPage();
11await page.goto('https://example.com/');
12await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });
13page.close();

Thousands of companies trust us
Browserless helped us focus on the problem we were trying to solve, and less on scaling an automation infrastructure. Browserless's developer focused approach has been a key to us bringing our product to market at the speed we were able to do so. Joel and team are some of the most customer-centric partners I've worked with.
Scott Weinert — Co-Founder & CTO, Atomic
We were hosting our own Puppeteer-driven smoke testing service, which required specialized operational attention to maintain and scale. We began looking for third-party hosted solutions so that we could focus our attention on building and supporting our core products, and Browserless fit the bill.
Christopher Zhen — Software Engineer, Samsara
Browserless is a great browser-as-a-service tool that just works. We use it as a micro-service that renders thousands of dashboards per day as image of PDF and are very happy with the stability and performance.
