Our take
Pick Browser Use if you're a developer automating bookings, research, or QA in a real browser who will pay per hour or bring their own LLM. Pick Chrome DevTools MCP if you're front-end engineers whose coding agent should debug the Chrome tab they already have open. Skip Browser Use if you're people who need a no-code workflow without an agent loop (n8n, Langflow) or a coding IDE agent (Cursor). Skip Chrome DevTools
