What Developers Build on Browser Forest

From large-scale scrape jobs to fully autonomous web agents, Browser Forest makes it easy to run browser automations in the cloud.

AI Agent Browsing
Give your LLM agents real browser access. Compatible with LangChain, CrewAI, and any MCP client.
Web Scraping at Scale
Scrape even the most protected websites. Anti-detection engine + auto CAPTCHA solving + built-in proxy routing.
Automated E2E Testing
Run Playwright/Puppeteer tests in isolated cloud browsers. Record sessions, debug with live view, scale to hundreds.
Anti-Detection Browsing
35+ patches to Chromium & V8. 105 detection points neutralized. Navigate without triggering bot protection.
Persistent Identities
Context-based cookie & storage persistence. Login once, reuse across sessions. Maintain authenticated states.
Observability & Monitoring
Session recordings, live view, usage dashboards, and detailed logs. Know exactly what your browsers are doing.

Why Browser Forest?

What sets us apart in the cloud browser landscape

The only platform with free captcha solving

Free CAPTCHA Solving

Competitors: all locked behind paid plans

Built-in CapSolver integration solves reCAPTCHA v2 in ~10 seconds — included even on the Free plan. Steel.dev, Hyperbrowser, and Browserless all require paid subscriptions to access captcha solving. We are the only cloud browser that gives you this for free.

5× higher free-tier concurrency

5 Concurrent Sessions

Competitors: 1 concurrent session on free plans

Run up to 5 browser sessions simultaneously on the free plan. Steel.dev (Hobby), Hyperbrowser, and Browserbase all cap free users at 1 concurrent session. No waiting in queue, no forced upgrades — just scale.

35+ patches. Not just launch flags.

Patched Chromium 147

Competitors: standard headless Chrome or basic stealth flags

31 Chromium source patches + 4 V8 engine patches, covering 105+ detection points. While others rely on launch flags or proxy-based stealth, our patches are compiled into the browser binary — the deepest anti-detection Chromium fork in the industry.

17/20 CDP commands — matches all competitors

Full CDP Compatibility

Drop-in replacement for puppeteer.launch()

Works with Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, and any CDP-compatible client. Our CDP command coverage is identical to Browserless, Steel.dev, and Hyperbrowser (all 17/20). One line change: swap `.launch()` for `.connectOverCDP()`. Zero vendor lock-in.

Mature three-layer session model

Context / Fingerprint / Session

Competitors: basic session-only models

Persist cookies & storage across sessions with Contexts. Auto-generated fingerprints. Isolated sessions. Login once, reuse infinitely. Where competitors offer flat session pools, our Context→Fingerprint→Session architecture gives you persistent, portable browser identities.

Get Started in 30 Seconds

Create a session, connect via CDP — works with any Playwright, Puppeteer, or Selenium setup.

// Create a browser session
const session = await fetch(
  'https://bf.mktindex.com/api/v1/sessions',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'X-API-Key': 'bf_live_xxx',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ timeout: 300 }),
  }
).then(r => r.json());

// Connect with Playwright
const browser = await chromium
  .connectOverCDP(session.cdpUrl);
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');
console.log(await page.title());

Works with any CDP-compatible client. Zero vendor lock-in.
