🤖 Quickstart

With uv (Python>=3.11):

#  We ship every day - use the latest version!
uv pip install browser-use

Download chromium using playwright's shortcut:

uvx playwright install chromium --with-deps --no-shell

Create a .env file and add your API key. Don't have one? Start with a free Gemini key.

GEMINI_API_KEY=

Run your first agent:

from browser_use import Agent, ChatGoogle
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

agent = Agent(
    task="Find the number of stars of the browser-use repo",
    llm=ChatGoogle(model="gemini-flash-latest"),
    # browser=Browser(use_cloud=True),  # Uses Browser-Use cloud for the browser
)
agent.run_sync()

Check out the library docs and cloud docs for more settings.

Stealth Browser Infrastructure

Want to bypass Cloudflare, or any other anti-bot protection?

Simply go to Browser Use Cloud grab a BROWSER_USE_API_KEY and use the use_cloud parameter.

from browser_use import Agent, Browser, ChatOpenAI

# Use Browser-Use cloud browser service
browser = Browser(
    use_cloud=True,  # Automatically provisions a cloud browser
)

agent = Agent(
    task="Your task here",
    llm=ChatOpenAI(model='gpt-4.1-mini'),
    browser=browser,
)

Demos

Task: Add grocery items to cart, and checkout.
