- Real-time web access: agents retrieve live data from the open web, not cached or static snapshots.
- Claude and Claude Code integration: configures directly into Claude Desktop or Claude Code via MCP server settings; no additional code required.
- Claude Skills support: the
brightdataskill teaches Claude how to select the right tool, handle errors, and follow best practices across the full tool surface. - Scraping Browser access: the MCP server can drive a managed Playwright/Puppeteer browser for JavaScript-heavy pages.
- SERP and structured extraction: search engines and 100+ site-specific scrapers are available as discrete tools.

Ecosystem and Integrations
- Works with any MCP-compatible client, including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and custom agent frameworks.
- Pairs with the Python SDK and JavaScript SDK for programmatic access outside of agent contexts.
