Maker here. Playwright is great, I use it too. The difference is really about who’s driving. ProofShot is meant for agents that just need shell commands, start to open the browser and begin recording, exec to interact with the page, stop to bundle everything up. You get video, screenshots, console errors, server logs, and an interactive HTML viewer in one artifacts folder you can drop on a PR with proofshot pr. With Playwright the agent needs to write a test script, run it, collect screenshots, parse output separately… it’s a lot of glue code. Also agent-browser’s element references are ~93% smaller than Playwright’s accessibility tree, which adds up when you’re paying per token.
