About Browserless
Browserless provides a managed API for headless Chrome, so you can scrape dynamic websites, take screenshots, generate PDFs, and run automated tests without spinning up your own browser instances. It supports Puppeteer, Playwright, and Selenium scripts—hosted and scaled for you.
What it solves
Running headless browsers at scale is notoriously brittle. Browserless handles Chrome updates, concurrency, memory management, and session persistence, eliminating the pain of debugging crashes, captchas, and version mismatches in production.
Who it's for
Developers scraping JavaScript-heavy sites, teams generating PDF invoices or reports from web pages, QA engineers running automated browser tests in CI/CD pipelines, and AI agents that need a real browser. It is not designed for simple static-site scraping where a plain HTTP request suffices.
Real use cases
Extract data from single-page applications, capture pixel-perfect full-page screenshots for monitoring, render HTML to PDF for billing systems, and automate end-to-end tests with Puppeteer or Playwright—all via a simple REST or WebSocket endpoint.
