Our verdict on Browser Use
Browser Use is an open-source browser agent and hosted automation platform for developers and teams. It supports hosted AI agents that execute browser tasks, managed stealth Chromium browsers, custom browser connections, and a local browser agent. The platform is available through web, API, and self-hosted options, making it suitable for teams building browser-based workflows that need managed execution or local control.
Pricing is usage-based rather than subscription-based. The Browsers plan costs $0.02 per browser hour and includes managed cloud browsers, with residential proxies available and no subscription. Browser Use Agents adds hosted web agents, while model cost plus a 20% service fee applies; browser time and traffic are billed separately. The Enterprise plan provides custom concurrency, custom SLAs, custom data policy, HIPAA support, and zero data retention. This structure fits teams that prefer metered browser infrastructure, while buyers seeking a permanent free plan or a single bundled subscription should look elsewhere.
Its ecosystem supports Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, MCP, Python, TypeScript, and webhooks. Developers can connect through Playwright and Puppeteer CDP connectivity, use SDKs, or access APIs, structured outputs, files, and webhooks. Browser Use also offers residential proxies in 195+ countries, automatic CAPTCHA solving, persistent browser profiles and login state, live session URLs, and recordings. These capabilities make it a strong fit for AI agents and automation workflows that require persistent sessions, proxy coverage, or visibility into browser runs. Teams needing a narrower, subscription-based automation tool may prefer an alternative.
