2Captcha Browser API combines a real cloud browser, persistent profiles, proxies, geo-targeting, fingerprints, and captcha handling in one workflow. Connect existing Playwright, Puppeteer, or CDP scripts through WebSocket instead of running and scaling Chrome yourself. Use it for JavaScript-heavy scraping, browser automation, QA, and AI agents, with isolated sessions, screenshots, logs, Live Browser View, and HAR debugging.

Hi! We built 2Captcha Browser API because many real-world scraping and automation workflows now require much more than a simple HTTP request. Modern websites depend on JavaScript rendering, cookies, sessions, clicks, scrolling, geo-specific content, browser fingerprints, and captcha checks. Running Chrome locally can solve part of the problem, but it also means maintaining browser servers, Docker containers, browser versions, queues, proxies, restarts, and debugging infrastructure. Our approach is simple: keep the automation logic in your code and move browser execution to the cloud. Instead of launching Chrome locally, connect an existing Playwright, Puppeteer, or CDP workflow to a remote WebSocket endpoint. 2Captcha Browser API handles browser launch, isolated sessions, persistent profiles, JavaScript rendering, proxy routing, fingerprints, captcha challenges, scaling, logs, screenshots, Live Browser View, and HAR debugging. Browser profiles can preserve cookies and session data between runs. Proxies can be configured for the entire browser account, for an individual profile, or passed directly in the connection URL. This makes it possible to separate automation by website, account, region, or use case. The product is built for web scraping, browser automation, QA workflows, data collection, and AI agents that need to interact with real websites. We would appreciate feedback on the connection flow, browser profile management, debugging tools, and the automation scenarios you would like us to support next.
