Browserbase pricing: browser hours, Search and Fetch calls

Checked Nov 6, 2026 on Browserbase’s official pages (sources below). Prices change often: confirm with the provider before you buy.

Browserbase runs headless cloud browsers for AI agents, plus Search and Fetch APIs, a model gateway and a runtime. Plans are monthly and every plan keeps running past its included usage at the plan’s rate rather than capping you.

Figures below are quoted from browserbase.com/pricing, checked Nov 6, 2026. Browserbase also runs a separate pay-per-call x402 gateway that we check daily; see the box further down.

Paying per call instead of a plan

Browserbase also runs a Payment Gateway at x402.browserbase.com that answers an unpaid request with an HTTP 402 and a USDC price, so an agent can pay per search or fetch, or rent a browser by the hour, without an account. Our directory lists that gateway at $0.01–$0.06 on Base and Solana. It is billed separately from the monthly plans above. For a measured head-to-head see Browserbase vs Browser Use.
