building stagehand @browserbase

Joined October 2020
playwright wasn't built for automation today, we're graduating from brittle xpaths, hacky `evaluate` calls, and iframe hell - and we're twice as fast stagehand now runs on our own CDP driver, with zero reliance on any other framework. š§µš
We did a complete rewrite of Stagehand to run directly on CDP. By decoupling from Playwright, weāre now 44% faster. Work with any automation framework, efficiently traverse iframes & shadow DOMs, and even auto-cache agentic workflows.
