About obscura

Obscura The open-source headless browser for AI agents and web scraping. Lightweight, stealthy, and built in Rust. Obscura is a headless browser engine written in Rust, built for web scraping and AI agent automation. It runs real JavaScript via V8, supports the Chrome DevTools Protocol, and acts as a drop-in replacement for headless Chrome with Puppeteer and Playwright. Why Obscura over headless Chrome? Designed for automation at scale, not desktop browsing.
