The record

Deployment: cloud
Support: email, docs
Integrations: Playwright, Puppeteer, Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP)
Product: BrowserCat provides one API endpoint for managed cloud browsers and routes each session to a browser backend.
Automation use cases: The service supports browser scraping, image, PDF and video generation, automated tasks and tests, and browser access for LLMs.
Backend: The documentation says sessions currently run on Cloudflare, with more backends planned behind the same API.
Security: Browser sessions are isolated from one another, and temporary data including downloads, cache, cookies and local storage is purged when a session ends.
Privacy: BrowserCat says it does not collect sensitive information from browser sessions.
Credits: WebSocket API usage costs one credit per 30 seconds of activity, rounded up, while each successful Utility API request costs one credit.
Usage controls: The pricing FAQ says free plans have default soft and hard spending limits of $10 and $20, and requests are rejected at the hard limit until the billing period ends or the limit is raised.
Proxy support: Users can bring a third-party proxy, and BrowserCat says it routes proxy sessions to a backend that supports it.
Notable limitation: The FAQ says BrowserCat has no plans to support Selenium or Cypress.
Local development: BrowserCat says it can be used for local development and recommends starting with local browsers until automation becomes a bottleneck.
Headquarters: Newark, Delaware, United States
Price from: $50/mo
