Ask HN: Embeddable Browser Alternatives to Browserling?

I'd love to use them, just they won't reply to any emails about their Live API. I can't seem to find any reasonable alternatives to https://www.browserling.com/api

    Browserstack - it uses real devices and not emulators.

      I need a browser I can embed in a page and make it do things programmatically. Browserstack has that?

        You can certainly use Selenium and Appium with Browserstack and automate it.

          I'm building an automation tool and need an embedded web browser. It's ok though Browserling finally got back to me. I don't see anything with embedded web browsers wrt Selenium/Appium.

            I'm an automation engineer. You can also rent a remote desktop, automate its browser (or VM browsers) and send screenshots to your website.

              Can I reach out to you somehow? My info is in my profile.

              That's great but I've already built all the screenshot stuff out. I'm working on something slightly different.
