# Kaabist vs Browser Use

Browser Use runs AI agents that complete browser tasks from a prompt, plus remote browsers for your own agents. Kaabist runs fixed programs that pause when a site needs you (a 2FA code, an approval) and continue from their last checkpoint once you answer, guards every step that submits so it never runs twice, delivers healing as fixes you review, and discovers a site's APIs.

Browser Use, in their words: "Agents that use the browser." (https://browser-use.com)

Browser Use pricing: Pay as you go with no subscription: browsers $0.02/hour, residential proxy $5/GB, agents at model cost plus 20%, $5 minimum top-up. Source: https://browser-use.com/pricing

## Capabilities

| Capability | Kaabist | Browser Use | Note and source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Logged-in, multi-step flows | yes | yes | An AI agent carries out multi-step browser tasks from a prompt and can save a working script to rerun later. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/agent/scripts.md |
| Persistent sessions | yes | yes | Profiles persist cookies, local storage and login state so later browsers start logged in. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/authentication.md |
| Self-healing locators, delivered as proposals you review | yes | partial | The agent can be told to repair a saved script that fails during a run; we found no review step or version diff. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/agent/scripts.md |
| Resume a program from its checkpoint after a person answers | yes | partial | After a run ends, you take over through the live browser, then a new follow-up run continues in the same session. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/agent/human-in-the-loop.md |
| Side-effect fences: a submit never runs twice | yes | no | The docs advise reconciling external actions yourself before retrying; no mechanism keeps a step from running twice. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/troubleshooting.md |
| A coding agent builds the program over MCP | yes | yes | A hosted MCP server lets coding assistants run tasks, send follow-ups and use browser profiles. https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/mcp-server.md |
| Schedules and change detection | yes | unclear | A showcase page describes scheduled tasks, but we found no scheduling page in the current Cloud documentation. https://browser-use.com/showcase/schedule-daily-browser-task |

## When to choose Browser Use

You want an open-source or hosted agent that handles open-ended browser tasks from a prompt, with usage-based pricing and no subscription.
