Let AI do your web busywork.
Browser Use is an open-source tool that gives an AI agent a real browser. You describe a task in plain English and it opens pages, clicks, types and fills forms for you. Here is the honest setup — what it costs, and where it fits.
- 01
Install it
One pip command. Browser Use is a Python library, so you need Python 3.11 or newer. It drives a real Chrome window under the hood.
- 02
Give it an AI brain
The agent needs a model to think with. Drop an OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google key into a .env file, or get one from Browser Use's own cloud. This is the one part that costs money — you pay the model per run, usually cents.
- 03
Describe the task in plain English
No selectors, no scripting the clicks. You write what you want — "pull every competitor's price into a table" — and the agent figures out the steps.
- 04
Run it and watch
It opens a browser, navigates, clicks, types, and hands the data back. Because it runs on your machine, your logged-in sessions and cookies never leave your computer.
Copy & run this
# 1. install (Python 3.11+)
pip install browser-use
# 2. add an LLM key to a .env file
# bring your own OpenAI / Anthropic / Google key,
# or get one from cloud.browser-use.com
echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key" > .env
# 3. describe the task in plain English and run it
python - <<'PY'
import asyncio
from browser_use import Agent, ChatAnthropic
async def main():
agent = Agent(
task="Go to each competitor's pricing page and put their plans in a table",
llm=ChatAnthropic(model="claude-opus-4-8"),
)
await agent.run()
asyncio.run(main())
PYSwap the model line for ChatOpenAI or Browser Use’s own hosted model. The task string is the only thing you rewrite each time.
Repetitive web work, gone
The honest caveats
This is a developer tool, not a one-click app — you need a little comfort with Python and the command line. It is not free to run either: the agent thinks using an AI model, and you pay that model per task, usually a few cents. And like any agent, it can make mistakes on messy pages, so keep a human eye on anything that submits or pays. Used on the right repetitive jobs, though, it replaces hours of manual clicking.
