Browserless MCP

MCP Server for Browserless - scrape pages, take screenshots, generate PDFs, and more

The Browserless MCP node connects your Flowise agents to Browserless through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables browser automation capabilities such as web scraping, taking screenshots, generating PDFs, and more — all without managing headless browser infrastructure yourself.
