Smooth
Reliable, blazing fast browser agent API
Smooth is a serverless browser agent API that runs autonomous web tasks through a single API call. It handles browser spin-up, proxy rotation, persistent sessions, and CAPTCHA solving, covering use cases such as scraping behind logins, social media automation, dynamic multi-step forms, and QA testing.
The service uses small, efficient AI models and exposes a Python client alongside a REST-style API. It reports a 92% score on the WebVoyager benchmark and claims to be 5x faster and 7x cheaper than Browser Use. Security features include end-to-end encryption and zero-trust access controls, with on-prem, single-tenant, and BYOC deployment options available.
Smooth is aimed at developers integrating browser automation into applications. Packaging includes a Free plan with welcome credits and 2 concurrent browsers, Starter and Growth plans with monthly API credits, concurrent browser limits, custom proxies, persistent sessions, and stealth mode, plus an Enterprise tier with SSO/SAML, BAA agreements, and dedicated support. Usage is billed per step.
