TL;DR: Browser Use makes websites accessible for AI agents by extracting all interactive elements, so agents can focus on what makes their beer taste better.}

What is Browser Use (Cloud)?

The team started this project 3 months ago because it simply wasn’t possible to use the Browser with any LLM. They thought “How hard could it be to build the interface between LLMs and the web?” Fast forwarding 3 months, they have combined 25k ⭐ on Github and their Open Source community is growing fast.

Four days ago, OpenAI launched Operator. Since then, their community has been asking non-stop for a hosted version of browser-use. So they shipped that. Now you can use Browser Use as a B2C chat tool at https://cloud.browser-use.com/. They are releasing the API in the next few days. If you need API access for web agents, call them, don’t wait for the Open AI Operator API to be released!

Existing problems

During many conversations with their discord community of 5000 people, they identified these core challenges in browser automation:

• Websites change, and this breaks automation scripts. You usually only notice this, when it's too late.
• Websites often catch bots. To avoid this, you need to use different IP addresses, solve captchas, and act more like a human.
• Many people get frustrated with rate limits, parsing errors and API key management, when they do LLM-based scraping.
• The most useful tasks often require you to log in. This can be a pain, especially if you have to type in your username and password every time.

Browser Use hosted version addresses these challenges by handling proxy rotation, maintaining persistent sessions - so you only need to login once, and allowing you to run as many instances in parallel as you need. They have priced it at $30/month, significantly lower than Operator.

On the open-source side, browser-use remains free and flexible. You can use any LLM you prefer - from Gemini to Sonnet, Qwen, and even DeepSeek-R1. It comes with an MIT license and full customization options.

This week, they are working on follow-up questions, task reruns, voice mode, and scheduled agent starts. If you want to build automations directly into your products call them, they are happy to explore your use cases and help you set get set up with the API or even custom integration.

Their vision is simple: tell your computer what to do, and it gets it done.
