About Lightpanda

Building a web browser from scratch is a monumental challenge, one that few have attempted.

We took it on because automation and AI demand a fresh foundation, not wrappers on a legacy tech stack.

At our previous company, we scraped millions of web pages a day, and spent years navigating the pain of scaling scraping infrastructure with Chrome.

We knew the only real solution was to start over.

Lightpanda is here to change the game. We want to enable developers and businesses to do more with less.

We're building something ambitious and unconventional.

Join us.

Ambitious. Unconventional.

And just getting started
