The short version

  • Each has a real cost: BambooHR organisations of 25 or fewer employees pay a flat rate starting at $250 a month, so a very small team pays far more per head than the listed per-employee price; Browserbase the free plan includes only 1 browser hour and a 15 minute maximum session duration; the $20 per month Developer plan raises that to 100 hours before $0.12 per hour overage, as of August 2026.
