Where GrabShot wins
Modern features: GrabShot includes device frames (iPhone, MacBook, browser) and AI-powered popup removal. Browshot's feature set hasn't evolved much -- it captures pages but doesn't offer post-processing.
Price: GrabShot starts at $9/mo for 500 screenshots. Browshot's paid plans start at $19/mo with fewer modern features.
Developer experience: GrabShot has a simple GET API, interactive docs, and code examples in 6 languages. Browshot's API is functional but feels dated.
Where Browshot wins
Batch screenshots: Browshot handles large batch jobs well and has been battle-tested for years with high-volume customers.
Multiple browsers: Browshot supports multiple real browser engines (Chrome, Firefox) while GrabShot uses Chromium exclusively.
