Unlock the Mobile Web: Introducing m.headless.ly - Your Mobile Headless Browser Agent

The mobile web is a universe of its own. Websites behave differently, layouts shift, and the user experience is tailored for smaller screens and touch interactions. If you're involved in web scraping, automated testing, or building agentic workflows that need to interact with mobile-optimized websites, traditional desktop-oriented headless browsers often fall short.

That's where m.headless.ly comes in.

We're thrilled to introduce m.headless.ly, a powerful mobile headless browser agent designed to interact with websites exactly as a real mobile user would. Forget the guesswork and limitations of simulating a mobile environment with a desktop browser. m.headless.ly is a mobile browser, allowing you to seamlessly scrape, test, and automate on mobile-optimized sites with unprecedented accuracy.

Why a Dedicated Mobile Headless Browser?

You might be asking, "Can't I just set a mobile user agent in a standard headless browser?" While that gives you a basic mobile view, it doesn't fully replicate the nuances of a mobile browser environment. Mobile browsers have distinct rendering engines, handling of touch events, resource loading behaviors, and sometimes even different JavaScript execution patterns.

m.headless.ly is built from the ground up to address these differences. It provides a true mobile browsing experience, making it the ideal tool for:

• Accurate Mobile Web Scraping: Extract data from mobile-specific layouts and dynamic content that might be hidden or structured differently on desktop.
• Robust Mobile Website Testing: Perform automated testing of responsive designs, mobile-only features, and touch interactions. Ensure your mobile site looks and functions perfectly across various devices and screen sizes.
• Building Agentic Workflows: Create intelligent agents that can navigate, interact with forms, click buttons, and perform complex tasks on mobile websites, all within a "Business as Code" framework.
• Performance Monitoring: Understand how your mobile site loads and performs from the perspective of a mobile user.

Interact Like a Real Mobile User with Ease

Using m.headless.ly is straightforward and powerful. Our API allows you to define your agentic workflows and interact with mobile sites programmatically.

Here's a simple example demonstrating how to capture a screenshot and extract text content from a mobile page:

{
  "url": "https://example.com/mobile",
  "mobile": true,
  "screenshot": {
    "format": "png",
    "width": 375,
    "height": 812
  },
  "evaluate": "document.body.innerText"
}

This JSON payload instructs m.headless.ly to visit https://example.com/mobile using a mobile configuration, capture a PNG screenshot at a common mobile resolution (375x812), and then evaluate the JavaScript expression document.body.innerText to fetch the entire text content of the page.

Unleash the Power of Agentic Workflows

m.headless.ly isn't just about rendering pages. It's about enabling complex interactions. You can define sequences of actions, including:

• Navigating to specific URLs
• Clicking on elements
• Typing into input fields
• Scrolling
• Waiting for specific elements to appear
• Handling pop-ups and alerts
• Injecting and evaluating JavaScript

This level of control allows you to build sophisticated agentic workflows that can automate virtually any task you would perform manually on a mobile website. Think of it as giving your code the ability to "browse" the web like a human, but with incredible speed and precision.
