The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Browser Use billing stacks two separate meters at once: per-token model usage plus $0.02 per hour of browser time, metered by the minute, so cost depends on both reasoning length and session duration, as of August 2026.; Personio payroll processing only available in Germany, UK, and Ireland, limiting multi-country deployment
