Pricing or terms sourceCode, model and service licensing
MIT code allows commercial use with notices; it does not license target-site content, models or cloud service rights. Cloud terms grant broad perpetual, irrevocable and sublicensable User Content rights and commercialization of derived Usage Data. The privacy policy permits input model training and disclosure to LLM providers, and retention as needed; it excludes processor handling governed by customer agreements. Confirm the applicable contract and service extraction restrictions; do not assume no training, zero retention or automatic commercial rights to scraped output.

Overview
Browser Use separates a MIT Python agent library from managed browser infrastructure and a fully hosted agent API. The library/CLI can use local or cloud browsers; hosting a browser alone does not host your agent. Profiles can transfer cookies, rather than every kind of browser storage.
Choose the model, browser location and permissions together. Website access, authentication and extraction rights remain your responsibility; CAPTCHA and task completion are not guaranteed. Cloud charges combine model usage, service fees, browser time and traffic. Public service data terms include input training and broad content permissions, subject to any applicable customer agreement.
