Leveraging the Stagehand API, Browserbase can now offer a deeper look into Stagehand script executions. This enhanced observability will help users better understand and optimize their Stagehand usage and also provide debugging insights that significantly reduce troubleshooting time and improve the overall developer experience.
Key features include method inspection views, element highlighting for actions, and detailed execution metrics.
Browserbase has moved all remaining customers from single user accounts to multi-user and multi-project supported Organizations.
This means your team can have their own logins, see sessions across shared projects, and manage multiple projects under one org. Or if you’re building alone, you can have multiple projects within your account.
No action required on your part. Read more here.
We now ship the captchaImageSelector and captchaInputSelector browser settings in the API docs and in the SDKs!
We also now have two new versions of our SDKs with a lot of internal improvements!

Keep-alive is more reliable now!
When a session is created with keepAlive: true, a protection is set on the browser. This prevents it from being stopped on disconnect. The session is only stopped if:
Previously, the keepAlive protection expired based on a coarse timer. It now uses more precise timing, making protection behavior more accurate and reliable.

Session cookies are now fully persisted resulting in fewer session timeouts!
What changed?
Basic & Advanced Stealth were both updated such that contexts will now persist session cookies (cookies with expires: -1). The cache that is saved from session to session has been slimmed down, decreasing the rate at which contexts grow in size with persist: true.
What results should customers see?
Primarily, this increases the lifespan of the context 🎉 Sessions created with contexts are significantly less likely to time out when you try to connect.
This also means login flows are persisted across sessions more reliably.

Browserbase now supports UI-based workflows involving native select elements! Previously, clicking on a select HTML element in the live view wouldn’t show the native options popup, which meant that the only way users could edit these elements was via keyboard. This is now fixed! Users in the live view will now see a menu as expected. Click away :)
We’re thrilled to announce the release of Stagehand 2.0, bringing significant improvements to make browser automation more powerful, faster, and easier to use than ever before.

Develop agents that can browse the web with Browserbase and Inngest.
There are two ways to use Browserbase with AgentKit:
The v1.14.0 Stagehand release includes performance improvements to the act() method using observe() under the hood, adds targeted extraction via XPath strings in the selector parameter, and introduces support for new AI models like GPT-4.5-preview, Claude 3-7-sonnet-latest, Cerebras LLMs, and Groq LLMs.
We’ve added 8 new tutorials to our playground to make it easier to get started and trial features.
