## faq

What is a session?: One browser, yours alone, that you drive over CDP. When you delete it, or its timer runs out, it is gone for good.
How fast does one start?: About 180ms from your request to a browser you can use.
How is it metered?: Per second, at $0.10 per browser-hour. Bandwidth and proxies are included. Billing stops when the browser is deleted.
Concurrency limits?: 5 concurrent browsers during beta. Contact us for a higher limit.
