Anchor Browser
Cloud browser platform from Tel Aviv for AI agents, with logged-in sessions, Cloudflare-verified traffic, and browser tasks that replay as code.
Teams automating logged-in work on portals and back-office sites, especially where bot protection blocks ordinary headless browsers.
Teams that want a simple per-hour browser price, or developers who only need a handful of quick scraping jobs.
Verdict
Anchor Browser is a browser infrastructure company in Tel Aviv, Israel, started in October 2024 by Idan Raman, Dor Dankner, and Guy Ben Simhon. Companies use it to run cloud browsers that log in to websites, fill forms, and pull data for AI agents, on a custom Chromium build with built-in identity handling and a verified bot partnership with Cloudflare. It stands out because its agents plan a task once and save it as repeatable steps, then bring the AI back only when a page has changed, which suits government portals and old enterprise sites that have no API.

“It’s taken away a lot of the friction we used to face with browser automation and made it far easier to build reliable agent workflows on top of it!”
“The developer experience stands out. Setup was quick, the APIs are well-designed, and their team is super responsive.”
“Everything is priced in credits, and it took me a while to work out how much browser time $50 a month on the Starter plan would buy. I had to run our agent for a week and watch the usage page before I could budget for it.”
