Cloud hosted browser infrastructure that lets AI agents operate real web interfaces, navigating, authenticating, filling forms, and extracting data on sites that have no API.

Anchor Browser is secure, cloud hosted browser infrastructure for computer use agents. Each agent gets an isolated browser environment where it can navigate pages, complete authentication including MFA and SSO, submit forms, and extract data the way a human would, unlocking automation on dynamic, API less websites. Its b0.dev system lets agents plan a workflow once and then execute it reliably and self heal when a UI changes, and it scales to very high concurrency across cloud or on premises deployment. Anchor is model agnostic, works with OpenAI, Anthropic, or local models, exposes an SDK and MCP server, and is used by teams such as Groq, Unify, and Browser Use. The company raised a $6 million seed round in 2025 led by Blumberg Capital and Gradient and was founded in 2024 by alumni of Unit 8200, SentinelOne, and Noname Security.

Pricing

Free tier; Starter fifty dollars per month

Monthly plan plus metered browser hours, proxy gigabytes, and AI steps.

Free tier

Cost watchouts

Proxy data at eight dollars per gigabyte and per step AI charges can dominate the bill on long running or data heavy jobs.

Variable cost rationale

Usage charges per browser hour, per gigabyte of proxy, and per AI step accumulate with scale; proxy data in particular can become a significant cost on data heavy scraping workloads.

Sales call required

No, self serve available

Free / trial

Free tier: 5 credits per month.

Lowest paid plan

Key ambiguities

Published per unit rates vary across the pricing page and third party listings (for example five cents versus ten cents per browser hour); confirm current rates on the official pricing page.
