Hyperbrowser is browser-as-a-service infrastructure built for AI agents. It replaces self-hosted headless setups with a serverless API that provisions isolated cloud browser sessions on demand, with stealth mode, automatic CAPTCHA solving, browser-fingerprint management, and rotating residential and datacenter proxies handled internally. It exposes scraping and crawling APIs, is compatible with Puppeteer and Playwright, and is designed to scale to thousands of concurrent sessions with low queueing. Hyperbrowser is infrastructure that agents call, not an agent itself: developers wire it into their own automation. It also ships HyperAgent, an open-source framework that extends Playwright with natural-language commands and acts as an MCP client, plus an official MCP server that lets LLMs like Claude and Cursor drive a live browser. Founded in 2021 (San Francisco), it is Y Combinator-backed with investors including Accel and SV Angel; founders are Akshay Shekhawat and Shri Sukhani.

What it can do

  • Provision serverless cloud browser sessions

    Assistant

    Spins up isolated headless Chrome sessions on demand via API, scaling to thousands of concurrent browsers with low queueing.

  • Evade bot detection automatically

    Assistant

    Applies stealth mode, automatic CAPTCHA solving, fingerprint management, and rotating residential/datacenter proxies across global regions internally.

    source

  • Scrape and crawl via API

    Supervised

    Offers scraping and crawling endpoints compatible with Puppeteer and Playwright so existing automation drops onto the managed infrastructure.

    source

  • Drive a live browser from LLMs (HyperAgent + MCP)

    Supervised

    HyperAgent extends Playwright with natural-language commands and acts as an MCP client; an official MCP server lets LLMs like Claude and Cursor control a live browser.

Strengths

  • +Serverless sessions scale to thousands of concurrent browsers without self-hosting
  • +Built-in stealth, CAPTCHA solving, and proxy rotation reduce anti-bot maintenance
  • +Open-source HyperAgent plus official MCP server connect LLMs directly to the browser

Limitations

  • −It is infrastructure, not a turnkey agent; you build the application around it
  • −Usage/concurrency pricing can grow at high session volumes
  • −Stealth and CAPTCHA solving raise the usual legal and ToS questions for scraping

Overview

Hyperbrowser is browser-as-a-service infrastructure for AI agents. It provisions isolated, stealth-enabled headless Chrome sessions on demand through an API, replacing self-hosted browser fleets and handling the anti-bot plumbing internally.

What it does

It spins up serverless cloud browser sessions that scale to thousands of concurrent browsers, applies stealth mode, automatic CAPTCHA solving, fingerprint management, and rotating proxies, and exposes scraping and crawling APIs compatible with Puppeteer and Playwright. HyperAgent extends Playwright with natural-language commands and acts as an MCP client, and an official MCP server lets LLMs such as Claude and Cursor control a live browser.

Integrations & setup

Drop-in for Puppeteer and Playwright code; integrates with LangChain and MCP clients. Developers call it via REST API and SDKs; HyperAgent is open source on GitHub.

Pricing

Usage-based with a concurrency pricing model the company positions as more predictable than per-GB pricing. Check the pricing page for current tiers.

Best for / not for

Best for developers and teams building agents or scrapers that need reliable, scalable browser sessions without running their own fleet. Less suited to non-technical users wanting a finished no-code automation, or teams that need a turnkey agent rather than infrastructure.

Traction

Founded in 2021 in San Francisco by Akshay Shekhawat and Shri Sukhani (CEO, ex-Meta). Y Combinator-backed with investors including Accel and SV Angel.

Alternatives

Browserbase is the closest managed-browser competitor; Browser-Use and Skyvern focus on agentic browser actions; Firecrawl sits at the data-extraction end.

FAQ

Is Hyperbrowser an AI agent?+

Not by itself. It is serverless browser infrastructure that agents call as a tool. Its HyperAgent framework and MCP server let LLMs drive a live browser, but Hyperbrowser is best classified as a platform you wire into your own agents.

Does it support MCP?+

Yes. It offers an official MCP server so LLMs like Claude and Cursor can interact with the live web, and HyperAgent acts as an MCP client to connect tools like Slack and Notion.
