  • 🔄 Agentic Browser Workflow: Create custom drag-and-drop and conversation-based workflows that combine deterministic automation with AI intelligence - perfect for repetitive tasks like auto-login, data collection, and social media posting.

  • 🎨 Seamless Chrome Extension UI: Native browser integration without switching applications, providing an intuitive interface that feels like part of your browser.

🚀 Browser Workflow Magic

Why Browser Workflow Matters

🎯 Efficiency First: Most browser operations follow predictable patterns - why rebuild them every time with agents? Workflows let you define once, run forever.

💰 Token Savings: Workflows consume virtually zero tokens, only using them when dynamic information retrieval is needed. Save costs while maintaining intelligence.

Speed & Reliability: Deterministic workflows deliver consistent, fast, and highly accurate results. No more waiting for agents to "think" through repetitive steps.
