# Anchor Browser

In short

Anchor Browser leases managed Chromium sessions to computer-use agents, from USD 50 a month for the Starter tier that adds CAPTCHA bypass. A session carries a Web Bot Auth signature only if the customer switches it on and holds the USD 2,000 Growth plan or Enterprise. Anchor was among the launch partners of Cloudflare's signed-agent programme in August 2025.

## What Anchor Browser does for this layer

### From the vendor's own pages

Anchor Browser signs all HTTP requests in a session as Anchor Browser when the session setting web\_bot\_auth.active is true; the setting defaults to false. ([docs.anchorbrowser.io](https://docs.anchorbrowser.io/advanced/cloudflare-web-bot-auth.md)) Anchor's pricing table lists "Cloudflare verified browser agents" only on the Growth plan at USD 2,000 a month and on Enterprise, not on Free or Starter (USD 50 a month). ([docs.anchorbrowser.io](https://docs.anchorbrowser.io/pricing.md)) Anchor's Free plan gives USD 5 in credits a month with up to 5 concurrent browsers; automated captcha bypass and geolocation proxies start on Starter. ([docs.anchorbrowser.io](https://docs.anchorbrowser.io/pricing.md)) Anchor's docs index lists Extra Stealth Mode for anti-detection and fingerprint protection, bring-your-own proxy, dedicated sticky IPs, Anchor VPN and a Web Unlocker for CAPTCHA- and bot-protected pages that is "billed only on success". ([docs.anchorbrowser.io](https://docs.anchorbrowser.io/llms.txt))

Anchor's homepage cost calculator prices browser time at USD 0.09 an hour, proxy traffic at USD 8.00 per GB and AI steps at USD 0.01 each. ([anchorbrowser.io](https://anchorbrowser.io/))

### Claims the vendor makes about itself

Anchor describes its product as "fully managed, humanized chromium instances that can assume any identity and access any website". ([anchorbrowser.io](https://anchorbrowser.io/))

### Reported by a third party

Cloudflare named Anchor Browser in its first signed-agent cohort on 2025-08-28, quoting Anchor's CEO that the partnership lets developers "ship verified browser agents". ([blog.cloudflare.com](https://blog.cloudflare.com/signed-agents/), dated 2025-08-28)

### What our crawl saw

A GET for anchorbrowser.io/.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory returned HTTP 404 on 2026-11-05, and the Web Bot Auth doc names no Signature-Agent host. ([anchorbrowser.io](https://anchorbrowser.io/.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory))
