What is BrowserOS?
BrowserOS neo (formerly BrowserClaw) is an open-source local browser designed for AI Agents. Its official website states that it is "the browser that Claude, Cohere, and Codex are missing." Its core concept is to enable AI Agents to actually drive web pages using your logged-in accounts—one-click import of Chrome login status, connection to Agents, and hand over web page tasks to them. It also allows running multiple Agents in parallel and replaying any session to view their operations. The official website claims that it is backed by Y Combinator.
Who is it for?
- Developers who already use coding Agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex and want them to actually operate web pages.
- People who need to let Agents handle repetitive web tasks such as form filling, booking, and crawling in parallel.
- People who value privacy and want Agents to run locally rather than in cloud browsers.
- Teams that want to transparently observe Agent behavior and audit each step through playback.
- Operations and research personnel who need to turn the browser into an auditable automated entry point.
Key features
6Agent-Driven Browsing
Your Agent (Claude Code, Cowork, Codex, Cursor, etc.) operates webpages using your login credentials to perform real clicks and form fill-ins.
Parallel Multi-Agent Support
Run multiple Agents simultaneously, each handling different web tasks, which the official says saves more tokens.
Session Replay
Any session can be replayed to watch the Agent's operation steps in real time for verification and troubleshooting.
Local-first
The official website states that browsing data never leaves the local device, prioritizing privacy, and it supports macOS, Windows, and Linux.
One-click login import
Import login information from Chrome with one click, eliminating the need for repeated configuration.
Compatible with Multiple Agents
The official list supports Claude Code, Cowork, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw, Hermes, etc.
How to use BrowserOS
- 1First import the Chrome login state and connect an Agent to complete small tasks, then scale up the parallelism.
- 2Before letting an Agent operate pages involving accounts and payments, confirm the playback and permission settings to prevent misoperations.
- 3Local browsers still pose security risks, so for sensitive websites, it is recommended to manually review the submission actions of the Agent.
- 4The officially supported Agents and platforms will be expanded; please check the current compatibility list again before use.
- 5Parallel Agents will consume accounts and network resources simultaneously, so be cautious of triggering risk controls on the target websites.
