No service agreement is published, only a website terms of use, and the documented CDP connection puts the API key in the URL.\n\n**Browser Use.** The hosted cloud accepts x402 top-ups in USDC on Base with no account or API key, and publishes prices, rate limits and three OpenAPI documents. The privacy policy says inputs are used to train Browser Use's models, API keys have no documented scopes, and no prompt-injection guidance was found in the docs.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Anchor Browser\n\n1. Send the key in the `anchor-api-key` header. For CDP, build `wss://connect.anchorbrowser.io?apiKey=\u003ckey\u003e\u0026sessionId=\u003cid\u003e` and keep that URL out of logs\n2. Set `session.timeout.idle_timeout` and `max_duration` and end sessions with DELETE. The default maximum is 180 minutes, and browser time bills by the minute\n3. Session creation is capped at 5 a minute on Free, 25 on Starter and 100 on Growth. On 429, wait for the `Retry-After` seconds\n4. Connect the `Anchor` MCP server or `Anchor (all)`, not both, because the docs say the pair duplicates tool names\n5. Authenticated browsers, CAPTCHA solving and proxies by country need the Starter plan or higher. The Free plan and Agent Access keys run plain sessions and web tasks\n\n### Browser Use\n\n1. Send the key as `X-Browser-Use-API-Key` with no Bearer prefix. A Bearer header returns 401\n2. Stop browsers with `PATCH /api/v4/browsers/{id}` and `{\"action\":\"stop\"}`. Closing CDP or the SDK client leaves the browser billing\n3. Poll `GET /runs/{id}/status`, not the full run, and wait for the returned Retry-After on 429, which can be 300 seconds at the edge\n4. Before resubmitting after a timeout, read the existing run's status. The server keeps running and may already have submitted a form\n5. With a wallet and no key, call x402.api.browser-use.com on `/api/v2` or `/api/v3` routes. A task stops with INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS if credit runs out mid-run\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Anchor Browser or Browser Use?\n\nBrowser Use scores 77.9 (BB) on agent readiness against Anchor Browser's 67.3 (B), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Anchor Browser and Browser Use need an API key?\n\nAnchor Browser takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Browser Use needs an API key. An agent can also pay Browser Use per call over x402, with no account.\n\n### Can an agent call Anchor Browser and Browser Use without installing anything?\n\nYes. Anchor Browser has a hosted endpoint at https://api.anchorbrowser.io and Browser Use at https://api.browser-use.com/api/v4.\n\n### Are Anchor Browser and Browser Use open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Anchor Browser. Browser Use is open source (MIT for the open-source library and the SDK. Browser Use Cloud is a proprietary service under Browser Use's terms of service).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/anchor-browser-vs-browser-use.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/anchor-browser-vs-browser-use.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"anchor-browser\", \"b\": \"browser-use\"}`.
