Description
BrowserGateway is the open router for cloud browsers.

Automatic failover, persistent login profiles across providers, session replay, MCP server, REST API, and observability. Self-host it or use cloud at browsergateway.com.

Could you build this?
Partial A basic proxy for WebSocket CDP traffic can be vibe-coded, but multi-provider failover, session state/cookie replication across disparate cloud vendors, and session replays require sophisticated proxy infrastructure.
What it would actually take: Requires an ultra-low latency reverse proxy (built in Go or Rust) managing stateful Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) WebSocket sessions. The hard part is intercepting and synchronizing browser profiles, session storage, and cookie jars on the fly during failover without crashing active Playwright/Puppeteer automation scripts.
