What BrowserShots is
BrowserShots captures PNG screenshots of websites for promotional materials, portfolios, presentations, visual bug detection, and cross-device checks. It provides desktop, tablet, and mobile captures through viewport emulation, using Chromium rendering that the company says is updated to follow Chrome releases and web standards. Options include more than 50 preset device configurations, custom viewport sizes, full-page captures, Retina or HiDPI output, portrait and landscape modes, touch simulation, and dark mode. The service supports automated testing and visual comparison. Its REST API, available to Super User subscribers, handles automated and full-page captures and webhook callbacks. API keys can be restricted to specified IP addresses or CIDR ranges, with examples for JavaScript/Node.js, Python, PHP, and cURL. BrowserShots names developers, UI/UX designers, QA teams, ecommerce businesses, marketing teams, and digital agencies as users. The Standard plan is $4.99 a month for 250 screenshots daily; Super User is $49.99 a month with 1,000 screenshots daily and API access.
