The 15 best browser automation MCP servers

The 15 browser automation MCP servers worth your time, out of 640 we track - actively maintained, with real adoption, ranked on monthly installs, GitHub stars, and commit recency. Checked nightly.

Browser-automation MCP servers let an agent drive a real browser - navigate pages, click, type, and capture what it sees. Choose based on engine (Chrome/Playwright/Safari), whether sessions are local or remote, and how much low-level control you need versus a simpler high-level API.

Where we've compared two of these head-to-head, the comparison is linked on each one's page.
