The honest brief

Browserbase

Managed stealth-browser fleet (proxies + CAPTCHA solving) drivable by Playwright or its open-source Stagehand framework.

  • Managed fleet scales to many sessions
  • Drivable via Stagehand framework
  • Works with Playwright/Puppeteer
  • Session observability and replay
  • Usage-based cost on a monthly base
  • Free tier just 1 browser hour
  • Infra layer — you still write the agent

Daytona

Boots an isolated sandbox with its own kernel and filesystem in under 90ms, so agents run untrusted code safely.

  • Sub-100ms sandbox start
  • Full isolated kernel + FS
  • SDKs in many languages
  • Open-source, self-host option
  • AGPL-3.0 may deter some
  • Infra to manage if self-hosted
  • Newer entrant
