Allowances and costs
Plans consume usage units; applicable paid plans have overages.
Free access: The $0 plan lists 1,000 units per month without a card.
- The free plan lists two concurrent browsers and two-minute sessions.
- Scraping strategies and optional search-result extraction can increase consumption.
What still needs checking
- Documentation reviewed; provider connection and task execution were not tested.
- Account entitlement, remaining quota and actual task cost are unknown; a trial or free plan is not a guarantee of payment-free execution.
- Search support is bound to browserless_search; it is not inferred from navigation or screenshot tools.
- OAuth requires a provider account. Search quality, extraction quality and current tool availability remain untested.
