I made a similar attempt at this a couple years ago, to allow browsing the (JavaScript) web with JavaScript disabled. It works by proxying all traffic through a headless Chrome instance... but a screenshot + an image map is even better.

Nice job with prerender.cloud! This looks like about the idea I had, but you took it a lot further, beyond the prototype stage into an actual product.

If you want to borrow the image map idea, feel free :). I'm not planning on developing cloudbrowser.website much further, moving onto other projects, but maybe I'll be a customer.
