Browser Use

Open-source Python framework making websites accessible to AI agents — the #1 browser automation project by GitHub stars.

Cloud browser infrastructure provides managed Chromium instances that AI agents can control remotely. These platforms handle the complexity of browser lifecycle management, anti-detection, session persistence, and scaling. They're critical for AI agents that need to interact with authenticated websites, fill forms, or navigate complex multi-step web workflows.

Editorial assessment

78,000+ GitHub stars make this the most popular browser automation project in the world. The Python framework is clean and the ChatBrowserUse custom model is a smart move. Open-source framework ≠ production infrastructure. You still need to manage browsers, proxies, and scale. The Cloud offering fills this gap but competes directly with Browserbase.
