BrowseGPT

BrowseGPT is a free, open source Chrome extension for AI browser automation. A user types a goal in plain English, and an AI model operates the current browser tab by clicking, typing and navigating until the task is done. The extension turns the open page into a compact numbered outline of its links, buttons and inputs. That outline, the goal and the steps taken so far go to a large language model, which returns one command at a time: CLICK, ENTER_TEXT, NAVIGATE or DONE, together with the reason for it. The extension performs the command and repeats. Because each step comes with an explanation, users can follow the model's reasoning and help it recover when it gets stuck. It uses Anthropic's Claude, with Claude Haiku 4.5 as the default, and can be switched to OpenAI GPT models. It runs in the user's everyday Chrome browser rather than a separate headless one. Suggested uses include searching travel and booking sites, comparing products, filling simple forms and prototyping LLM powered web agents. The vendor is candid that the tool is experimental and can make mistakes, and positions it for ad hoc tasks rather than repeatable testing or production scraping, where Selenium, Playwright or Puppeteer remain deterministic. The extension and its server code are on GitHub and can be run locally with the user's own API key. BrowseGPT itself is free.
