The short version

  • Only Browserbase has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Browserbase free plan limited to 3 concurrent browsers and 1 browser hour/month; Lytics billed in credits where one credit is an update to a user profile, so the bill tracks how often profiles change rather than how many exist
