- Billing basis
- What the meter counts: browser- or session-hours, per-minute, compute resources (vCPU/GiB), credits, bandwidth (GB), per request, a flat seat subscription, or free open-source software.
- Paid plan from $/mo
- Cheapest published paid plan per month. 0 means pure pay-as-you-go with no plan fee.
- Proxies
- Managed residential or datacenter proxies included or sold as an add-on.
- Persistent profiles
- Saved browser profiles, contexts, cookies or disk state that survive between sessions.
- Max session h
- Longest single session the vendor allows on its top self-serve plan, in hours (minutes divided by 60).
- Concurrency sessions
- Most concurrent sessions published on a self-serve plan (enterprise 'custom' excluded).
- Live view
- A live view or embeddable stream of the session, for watching or human takeover.
- CDP
- Connect over the Chrome DevTools Protocol (WebSocket URL).
