# Tabstack

> Tabstack is a web browsing API for AI systems that enables autonomous browsing, searching, data extraction, and web automation via four simple endpoints.

Tabstack is a Mozilla-backed API platform that gives AI systems the ability to browse, search, and interact with the web autonomously. It exposes four core endpoints — Extract, Generate, Automate, and Research — that cover the full range of web tasks an AI agent might need to perform. The platform is designed for production workloads, emphasizing speed, reliability, and data privacy.

## What It Is

Tabstack is a "web execution layer" for AI agents: a hosted API that lets AI systems perform real browser-like actions on the web without requiring developers to manage headless browsers, proxies, or scraping infrastructure. Rather than building and maintaining web automation tooling in-house, developers send tasks to Tabstack's API and receive structured results. The platform is positioned as infrastructure for AI agents that need to interact with live web content.

## Four Core Endpoints

Tabstack's API is organized around four POST endpoints, each targeting a distinct use case:

- **/Extract** — Converts any URL into markdown, JSON, or a custom schema. Markdown extraction costs 10 credits per action; JSON extraction costs 50 credits per action.
- **/Generate** — Turns web data into tailored messages, documents, or other outputs. Costs 100 credits per action.
- **/Automate** — Runs browser-like automations: clicking, scrolling, searching, and form submission. Costs 100 credits per action.
- **/Research** — Deploys autonomous agents to explore the web and answer complex questions. Fast mode costs 250 credits per action; Balanced mode costs 350 credits per action.

## Privacy and Mozilla Backing

The platform states a strong commitment to data minimization: all customer data is treated as ephemeral and purged immediately after use by default. As a Mozilla-backed platform, Tabstack publishes specific trust commitments:

- All requests use a dedicated Mozilla Tabstack User-Agent so site owners can identify and monitor traffic.
- Robots.txt directives addressed to the Tabstack User-Agent are honored.
- Retrieved content is never used by Mozilla for model training.

Website owners can configure access controls via documentation Tabstack provides for that purpose.

## Deployment Model

Tabstack is a cloud API accessed via HTTP. A Python SDK is available (shown in code examples on the homepage), and the platform is designed to integrate into existing AI agent pipelines with minimal setup. New accounts receive a free credit allocation to explore the full platform before committing to a paid plan. The documentation site at docs.tabstack.ai provides a quick-start guide and endpoint references.

## Who It's For

Tabstack targets developers and teams building AI systems that need live web access — from individual tinkerers connecting hobby projects to the internet, to engineering teams running production-scale automation workloads. The platform's rate limit tiers and credit-based pricing are structured to accommodate both low-volume experimentation and high-throughput production use cases.
