Thanks! Glad we're helping

Hopefully one day you get impacted by similar tech and your business fails. What goes around, come around and Im sure it will come around to you too. Since you dont have any details on your website about who you are or where you are located (which says a lot about the type of company and people you are) I look forward to the day your servers and data are leaked to something like Distributed Denial of Secrets (love wh…

I don't see why such animosity. Many legit companies (which is the only type of enterprise we deal with) have legit automation use-cases and require solutions to do that against walled gardens and information gatekeepers. We believe whatever a human can do with a computer, in public sites, should be automatable with a machine. There's no difference. A browser like that does not DDOs anyone.

If you have such good intentions, then proudly display who you are and where you are located on your website. Why are you hiding behind a veil of secrecy? Your social links on the website go no where. Speaks volumes about the 'legit' use cases you are targeting.

You're not helping. You're doing something that the host or owner of the website does not want you to do, circumventing their protections. This means they'll end up strengthening their protections, which only makes things worse for everybody.

Interesting, I’ve spent a lot of time over the past couple months researching the options for headless browsers in the cloud for AI agent workloads. What about user-data-dir persistence and infinite long running sessions? What about human-in-the-loop workflows with shareable embeddable browser control where a human manually takes over? If you have both these features then it’s a game changer. As for stealth alone, Go…

You can probably implement that using our self-hosted solution. You'll have full access to the browser and can save sessions.

Didn't see a self-hosted version on the website? Sounds awesome.
