Driver
Browser automation infrastructure running Chrome on real consumer hardware with residential IPs
What makes Driver different
Driver runs full Chrome browsers on actual consumer hardware rather than headless instances in cloud VMs. Each session gets genuine device fingerprints including real GPU, WebRTC, canvas, and TLS signatures that match authentic consumer devices. Sessions are routed through residential IP networks across 190+ countries, providing legitimate network reputation and geolocation.
Unlike traditional browser automation that relies on spoofed fingerprints or datacenter IPs that are easily detected, Driver’s real hardware approach makes automation traffic indistinguishable from genuine users. The platform exposes a standard Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) endpoint, allowing one-line integration with existing tools like Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, Browser Use, and Stagehand.
Pricing model
Free tier: $0/month with 5 concurrent browsers, 1-hour sessions, and $5 of included network usage
Advanced: $49/month with 30 concurrent browsers, 1-hour sessions, and $5/GB network usage
Scale: $129/month with 100 concurrent browsers, 1-hour sessions, and $5/GB network usage
All plans include automatic captcha solving and real hardware stealth. Network usage is charged separately at $5/GB beyond included amounts. The pricing model differs from traditional compute pricing by focusing on concurrent session capacity rather than raw infrastructure resources.
When it fits
• AI agent automation requiring undetectable browser behavior • Web scraping operations that face bot detection measures • Competitive intelligence gathering across global markets • Automated testing in realistic user environments • Data extraction from heavily protected sites
When it doesn’t
Driver isn’t suitable for basic headless automation where detection isn’t a concern, or for workloads requiring custom browser configurations beyond standard Chrome instances.
Inclusion criteria
Driver meets all three inclusion criteria with transparent pricing on their homepage, self-service signup at app.driver.dev/signup, and clear service descriptions. However, no public SLA or status page was found in the provided content.
