Open-source browser agents
Browser agents operate a web browser the way a person does, navigating pages, filling forms, and completing tasks on websites that have no API. This page lists the open-source browser agents in this directory, with the license and hosting model for each. There are 2 in this directory.
What to look for
- Reliability on dynamic, JavaScript-heavy sites
- Self-hosting versus a managed cloud option
- Whether it is a developer library or a ready-to-use product
- How it handles logins, sessions, and anti-bot measures
- The exact license, including any managed-only components

Common questions
When do I need a browser agent instead of an API integration?
Use a browser agent when the site or task has no usable API, or when the workflow spans several pages a person would normally click through. When a clean API exists, calling it directly is usually more reliable.
