In simple English
This app lets you run artificial intelligence agents that control a web browser for you. You type a task and watch the agent click buttons and fill out forms on web pages. It copies your normal browser cookies so the helper agents stay logged into your accounts. You can trigger tasks using a keyboard shortcut or by sending a message on WhatsApp. It costs nothing to download, but you need your own keys or subscriptions for the underlying language models.
What it is
A desktop application written in TypeScript that runs autonomous web browser agents on macOS, Windows, and Linux. It includes a helper program that manages separate browser sessions and copies your existing cookies.
What it is good for
Solo builders who want to automate boring web tasks like filling out forms, checking competitor prices, or gathering data from websites without writing custom scraping code.
- Runs directly on your desktop as a native application for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
- Copies your existing browser cookies so the agents are already logged into your websites.
- Triggers tasks from anywhere on your computer using a global keyboard shortcut.
- Requires paid accounts or API keys for the language models that power the agents.
- Can occasionally fail if target websites change their layout or block automated browsers.
- Early project with active development, which may bring occasional bugs or breaking changes.
