Updates
New features are announced here. The fleet also updates its browsers on its own: each new major version gets a post — new and removed features, what changes in what sites see, and what it means for scraping — measured on production against the version before. Every version change is in the changelog below. RSS feed.
Posts
- Launch interactive: try a browser by hand before you write the codePick a browser, proxy and options, open a start page and drive it yourself in live view. The code next to it launches exactly the same browser, and the API option is start_url.
- Residential proxy tiers: from $5 down to $0.50 per GBThe cdpfleet residential proxy now has four price tiers — $5, $2.50, $1 and $0.50 per GB — paid from one prepaid USD balance. Pick the tier per token, and mix tiers in one session with proxy_rules.
- The free Community plan: what's in it and how to get an inviteTwo threads with 60 browser-minutes each per day, every browser on the fleet and a proxy included — free, with no trial expiry. Invite-only while we open up.
- Persistent profiles: log in once, reuse the browser sessionLaunch with "profile": "name" and the browser restores that profile's cookies, storage and logins, then saves them again when the session ends.
