What is Browser Use?

Browser Use is an open-source tool that enables AI agents to interact with websites as if they were human users. Instead of relying on visual cues, it translates web interfaces into structured data, allowing AI models like GPT-4o to navigate, click, and input information reliably.
​

Whether you're automating tasks like job applications or building complex workflows, Browser Use offers a flexible platform compatible with various AI models. It's available for free as an open-source project, with a cloud version offering additional features for $30/month.

1. Problem Solved

Most AI agents struggle to interact with websites reliably—they either rely on fragile hacks like screen scraping or can't handle dynamic interfaces well. This limits how useful they can be for real-world web automation.

‍

2. Solution

Browser Use turns websites into structured data that AI models can understand and interact with—clicking buttons, filling forms, and navigating pages just like a human. It's open-source and works with models like GPT-4o out of the box.

‍

3. Target Audience

1. Developers building AI agents or web automation tools
2. Startups working on AI copilots or productivity assistants
3. Researchers and indie hackers exploring AI-human web interaction

‍

4. Differentiation from Competitors

1. Structured, non-visual interface (more stable than screen scraping)
2. Designed specifically for AI models to use autonomously
3. Open-source and developer-friendly, with an optional paid cloud version
4. Focused on real interaction, not just reading content
‍

It’s basically the browser built for AI, not humans.
