Hi HN!

I've been building browser automation tools for several years now [0] so when Anthropic came out with Computer Use, I made a Chrome extension to try it out: https://autobrowser.ai

My takeaways from building on Computer Use is that it's unfortunately not yet reliable for real-world usage and is quite expensive ("go to youtube and play a video about orcas" costs around $0.05). But it's certainly a promising look at what the future of automation could look like and is really fun to play with.

This was an experiment so it's free to use with your own API key. Try it out and let me know what you think!
