You might want to take a look at projects like chromeless or puppeteer which both offer a feature-rich API as well as documentation on running on most hosting providers.
Alternatively, if you're looking for something custom-built for this then I run a SaaS called browserless that attacks the problem directly.
In any case, hope that helps
