}Local or cloud. Your choice.
Switch browser engines on the fly or offload to cloud providers. Same commands work everywhere.
Playwright (default)
Full-featured Chromium with auto-install. All 128 commands, most tested and stable. The default for local development.
Rebrowser (stealth)
Patched Chromium that evades bot detection. Passes Cloudflare, DataDome, and more. Same API, drop-in replacement.
LightPanda (lightweight)
Zig-based browser engine. 10x faster page loads, ~10MB memory. Ideal for static content extraction and simple scraping.
Camoufox (anti-detection)
Firefox with C++ fingerprint spoofing. Bypasses Cloudflare Turnstile, bot detection, and fingerprinting. Named profiles for per-scenario configs.
Browserbase
Managed cloud Chromium for CI/CD and serverless. Spin up sessions on demand — no local browser needed.
Browserless
Connect to Browserless for scalable headless browsing. API keys encrypted at rest, never visible to agents.
