Verdict

Browser Use has become the dominant open-source browser-automation layer for AI agents, hitting 78,000+ GitHub stars and Fortune 500 adoption. Its self-healing helpers, stealth browser infrastructure, and purpose-built LLMs give it a clear technical edge over generic Playwright wrappers. The main tradeoff is that the cloud tier adds cost and the open-source path demands meaningful engineering effort to operationalize.
