Sessions are free — pay only for traffic
Run Chrome in the cloud without installing or maintaining it on your own servers. Start remote Chromium sessions and control them with your existing Playwright or Puppeteer code.
Managed Chrome
Move browser execution from your own servers to Floppydata Cloud Browser. Floppydata runs the browser infrastructure. Your code takes care of navigation, clicks, page interactions, and the rest of the workflow.

Running dozens of them regularly is different. Chrome uses CPU and memory, has to be available in every environment, and adds another piece of infrastructure for your team to maintain.
A cloud managed Chrome browser moves that workload elsewhere. Your application starts a remote Chromium session and connects to it over the Chrome DevTools Protocol instead of launching Chrome locally. It works well for automation, testing, monitoring, AI agents, and other jobs where you need a real browser but don't want to run it on your own servers.
start session click · fill · read A managed browser changes where Chrome runs, not how your application controls it. Your code remains responsible for the workflow, while Chromium runs remotely on Floppydata infrastructure. When your workflow needs a browser, your application starts a remote session and connects to it using Playwright or Puppeteer. Floppydata Cloud Browser supports up to 100 simultaneous browser sessions per account.
This removes the need to maintain a separate fleet of machines or containers just to execute browser workloads. Your application controls what happens in the browser. Floppydata takes care of running Chromium.
Self-hosting Chromium is easy enough at a small scale. The problems usually start when browser jobs run all day, overlap with each other, or become part of a production workflow. Moving Chrome to the cloud keeps that workload away from the servers running the rest of your application.
Every local Chromium instance takes CPU and RAM. Add more parallel sessions and browser processes can quickly become one of the heavier parts of your infrastructure. With Floppydata Cloud Browser, those processes run remotely. You don't need to add server capacity just to keep more Chrome instances running.
This is useful for recurring automation, parallel tests, monitoring, scraping, and other jobs that constantly start new browser sessions.
Floppydata works around browser sessions. Your application creates a session, connects to it, and controls that browser independently. This is easier to manage than having multiple Chrome processes running alongside your application.
Saved browser settings and state can also be reused when a workflow needs them again. Floppydata syncs saved browser state when the session stops.
Moving Chrome to the cloud does not mean changing the automation tools you already use. Floppydata Cloud Browser is controlled over CDP and works with Playwright and Puppeteer.
Your code can continue handling navigation, selectors, clicks, input, JavaScript execution, and other browser interactions.
Python and Node.js applications can therefore use remote Chromium without maintaining a local Chrome installation for each automation environment.
import { chromium } from 'playwright';const browser = await chromium.connectOverCDP(connectUrl);const page = browser.contexts()[0].pages()[0];await page.goto('https://example.com');const title = await page.title();await browser.close();import puppeteer from 'puppeteer-core';const browser = await puppeteer.connect({ browserWSEndpoint: connectUrl });const page = (await browser.pages())[0];await page.goto('https://example.com');const title = await page.title();await browser.disconnect();from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwrightwith sync_playwright() as p: browser = p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(connect_url) page = browser.contexts[0].pages[0] page.goto('https://example.com') print(page.title())const res = await fetch('https://api.floppydata.net/v2/browser/sessions', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'X-Api-Key': process.env.FLOPPY_API_KEY }, body: JSON.stringify({}),});const { id, connectUrl } = await res.json();await fetch(`https://api.floppydata.net/v2/browser/sessions/${id}/stop`, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'X-Api-Key': process.env.FLOPPY_API_KEY },});The same script as local Chrome — connectOverCDP instead of launch.
One Chrome process doesn't need much planning. Fifty running at once is another story. When Chrome runs locally, every additional instance takes resources from your servers. More parallel jobs can mean more CPU, more RAM, and eventually larger machines just to keep browser workloads running.
A cloud managed Chrome browser moves those processes off your application servers. Start sessions when you need them instead of keeping enough local capacity available for your busiest periods. Floppydata supports up to 100 simultaneous browser sessions per account — use them for parallel tests, monitoring jobs, automation, or other workloads that need several browsers running at once.
Floppydata Cloud Browser runs with Floppydata proxy infrastructure. Browser sessions run exclusively through Floppydata rotating proxies. This is useful when remote Chrome sessions need to access localized websites, test regional experiences, or perform browser workflows from different proxy locations.
Browser execution itself does not have a separate runtime or per-session fee. Cloud Browser is free, and you pay only for the Floppydata proxy traffic consumed by your sessions.
Maintaining Chrome locally adds another infrastructure layer to browser-based applications. The more sessions you run, the more browser processes, resources, and environments your team has to manage. With a cloud managed Chrome browser, your application connects to remote Chromium instead — keep your existing Playwright or Puppeteer workflow, run browser sessions remotely, and scale concurrent workloads without building a separate Chrome infrastructure layer.
