Bright Data Launches a Lineup of Tools for AI

Deep Lookup transforms search queries into datasets, while Browser.AI and MCP server enable AI to roam the internet uninterrupted.

Adam Dubois

Bright Data, the Israeli provider of web scraping infrastructure and services, has introduced a lineup of AI-based and AI-oriented tools.

  1. Deep Lookup allows anyone to generate datasets without code, using the whole internet as a source. 
  2. Browser.ai aims to serve the booming industry of AI agents by giving them access to stealth web browsers.
  3. Bright Data’s MCP server allows LLMs and other apps to access web resources through a standardized protocol. 

Deep Lookup is currently in beta, accessible for companies to try out. The other two are available for all customers.

Deep Lookup

Introduced on July 2, Bright Data’s newest product aims to become an insight generation engine for non-technical teams. It accepts plain language queries and produces structured datasets, using the whole internet as the source.

Deep Lookup uses Bright Data’s archive of over 200 billion web pages, which is expected to reach 500 billion by next year, as well as live retrieval capabilities. 

In the end, users get a structured table of data points. They’re free to include more columns (either enriching the dataset or defining conditions to be met) at any point.

Compared to similar deep research tools, Deep Lookup has the benefit of speed and structure. In addition, it transparently shows the sources and reasoning behind the results.

Bright Data lists a wide range of use cases for its tool. For example, financial analysts can use it for market mapping, corporate strategists can screen targets for M&A, while B2B sales teams can look for leads.

Browser.ai

Browser.ai is Bright Data’s new brand that offers serverless web browsers. Its target audience is AI agents needing to access websites without blocks and other disruptions.

Browser.ai relies on the provider’s unblocking infrastructure: it integrates proxies, CAPTCHA solving capabilities, and cookie management, among other things. 

Furthermore, the tool accepts plain language prompts, which should prevent scripts from breaking upon website changes. 

Browser.ai’s plans start from $39 per month for 10 GB of data. There’s also a free plan with two gigabytes included.

MCP Server

Bright Data’s MCP server gives AI tools a standard interface for interacting with the provider’s infrastructure. For example, Claude can use it to run Google searches without encountering CAPTCHAs.

Bright Data’s list of MCP tools include a general-purpose web scraper, browser interactions, as well as a collection of specialized scrapers covering search engines and other popular targets.

The server integrates with most AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and LangChain.

The Bottom Line

By now, Bright Data has fully embraced AI as a way forward. 

Deep Lookup is probably the most interesting of the three. It builds upon all of Bright Data’s infrastructure layers to challenge services like ChatGPT.  

While the protocol is still fresh out of the oven, the MCP server makes a lot of sense, especially knowing that our industry stands at the frontier of AI developments. 

Browser.ai actually repackages Bright Data’s existing Scraping Browser product, likely cutting some corners to reduce price. As recent investments into Browserbase ($27M) and Browser-Use ($17M) show, there’s much perceived demand for this product category. Admittedly, Bright Data also managed to snatch a perfect domain name.
