About Browserless
Browserless is a headless browser service that runs Chrome instances in the cloud for web scraping, automated testing, PDF generation, and screenshot capture. Instead of managing your own Chromium infrastructure — dealing with memory leaks, version updates, and scaling headaches — Browserless handles the browser runtime so your code just sends requests and gets results back.
Developers and automation teams use Browserless for tasks that require a full browser environment: scraping JavaScript-rendered pages, running Puppeteer or Playwright scripts at scale, generating PDFs from web content, and capturing page screenshots for monitoring or reporting. It exposes a simple API, so you can swap out a local browser instance for a cloud-hosted one with minimal code changes.
For organisations running data collection, price monitoring, or content extraction workflows, Browserless removes a significant infrastructure burden. When connected to automation platforms like n8n, it becomes part of a larger pipeline — scrape a page, extract data, transform it, and push it into a database or dashboard. Osher Digital’s automated data processing services frequently involve browser-based extraction as one step in a multi-stage data pipeline, similar to the work we did in our BOM weather data pipeline project.
If your team is wrestling with unreliable scraping infrastructure or needs browser automation at scale, Browserless is a solid managed option. Our system integration specialists can wire it into your existing workflows and ensure extracted data flows cleanly into your downstream systems.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Browserless
As Browserless consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Browserless with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Sign Up and Get Your API Key
Create a Browserless account and obtain your API token. Choose a plan based on the number of concurrent browser sessions you need. The free tier works well for testing and low-volume use cases.
Step 2
Connect Your Automation Scripts
Update your Puppeteer or Playwright scripts to point at the Browserless endpoint instead of a local Chrome instance. This typically involves changing the browser connection URL to include your Browserless API token.
Step 3
Configure Your Scraping or Automation Logic
Write or adapt your scripts to navigate pages, wait for dynamic content to load, and extract the data you need. Use selectors to target specific elements, handle pagination, and manage login flows if required.
Step 4
Integrate With Your Data Pipeline
Connect Browserless outputs to the next stage of your workflow. This might mean pushing scraped data into a database, feeding it into an n8n workflow for transformation, or storing generated PDFs in a document management system.
Step 5
Handle Errors and Edge Cases
Build retry logic for failed page loads, timeouts, and CAPTCHAs. Monitor success rates and set up alerts for when scraping jobs fail. Browserless provides session recording and debugging tools to help diagnose issues.
Step 6
Scale and Monitor Usage
As your needs grow, adjust your Browserless plan to support more concurrent sessions. Monitor API usage through the Browserless dashboard and optimise scripts to reduce unnecessary page loads and session duration.
