nanobrowser: AI that handles web tasks in Chrome

Translated

This is an extension that lets you write down your to-do list in the Chrome sidebar while you're switching between pages to compare prices, and the AI will take care of it for you.

3-Line Summary

1) Write your to-do items in the Chrome sidebar, and the AI will read the web page, click on links, and handle the task for you. 2) Install it from the Chrome Web Store by clicking “Add to Chrome,” then connect your AI key. 3) It’s great for price comparisons; the README example shows how to find waterproof speakers under $50 on Amazon.

This would allow users to record browser actions, convert them into reusable scripts, and incorporate AI agent commands to create reliable and powerful hybrid automation workflows."

The AI hands off payment and password entry to you, so please handle those yourself. Before submitting, sending, deleting, or uploading, the system will first ask for your confirmation in the default settings. Since the page content is sent to the AI model you selected, please be careful with sensitive information on the screen.
