Browserbase

Cloud browser automation for agents powered by Stagehand

Browserbase's MCP server gives agents a cloud browser controlled with natural language via Stagehand. Agents can start sessions, navigate, act, observe elements and extract data. The hosted server is recommended; the original self-hosted repository was archived in 2026.
