Description

Director, created by Browserbase, is an innovative no-code platform for web automation that transforms straightforward English instructions into fully operational browser workflows and scheduled agents. Users simply articulate the automation task they need, and Director utilizes its Stagehand automation SDK to produce a repeatable script that executes in a real browser hosted on Browserbase’s cloud infrastructure, enabling effortless scheduling, deployment, and scaling with minimal user input. The platform accommodates interactive tasks, such as secure logins through 1Password integration, multi-step navigations, DOM element manipulations, dynamic branching capabilities, and data extraction with outputs in CSV, JSON, or PDF formats. Additionally, users can export the automation code for further modifications or to integrate it into personalized stacks. The system meticulously logs every interaction performed in the browser, compiles it into a production-ready script, and supports the execution of numerous browser instances simultaneously, ensuring efficiency and reliability in automation tasks. Such flexibility and power make Director an essential tool for anyone looking to optimize their web-based processes without the need for coding skills.

Description

Gaffa is a REST API built for web scraping and browser automation, allowing developers to run real, full browsers at scale with a single API call. It removes the difficulty of managing headless browser frameworks, rotating proxies, CAPTCHA solving, and scaling infrastructure, all of which are handled automatically. JavaScript-heavy and dynamic websites render exactly as they would for a human visitor by default. Beyond standard scraping, Gaffa supports AI-driven structured data extraction (extract data into a defined schema without writing CSS selectors), screenshot and PDF capture, infinite-scroll and form-filling automation, and clean Markdown conversion for feeding webpages directly into LLM and RAG pipelines. A rotating residential proxy network keeps access reliable across regions, and a credit-based pricing model means teams pay only for the browser time and bandwidth they actually use. Gaffa is designed for AI engineers, data teams, and developers who want production-grade web data extraction without having to build and maintain their own infrastructure.

Pricing Details

$20 per 5000 credits

Gaffa uses a simple credit-based pricing model. Plans start at $20 for 5,000 credits, with no subscription lock-in. Credits cover both browser execution time (1 credit per 30 seconds of runtime) and residential proxy bandwidth (750 credits per GB). A typical browser session, combining short execution time with low proxy bandwidth costs, costs around 3 credits, so 5,000 credits covers roughly 1,600+ typical sessions. All new accounts also receive 500 free credits to get started, no credit card required.
