PinchTab is a standalone Go HTTP server that gives AI agents direct control over Chrome via CDP, with stealth injection and multi-instance orchestration. It runs as a local daemon with an HTTP API, MCP server, and real-time dashboard.

Use cases

  • control a browser from AI agents
  • scrape websites with headless chrome
  • orchestrate multiple browser instances
  • give an LLM agent web browsing tools
  • automate web tasks via HTTP API
  • run stealth browser automation

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight single-binary browser control plane for AI agents
  • you want token-efficient browser automation over HTTP or MCP
  • you need multi-instance headless Chrome orchestration with stealth features

When to avoid

  • you need a multi-tenant or public-internet-exposed browser service
  • you only need simple scraping without agent integration
  • you require a managed cloud browser service rather than self-hosted infrastructure
