Open Source AI Agent to automate browser workflows via an API
Skyvern helps companies automate browser based workflows using LLMs and Computer Vision, fully automating manual workflows and replacing brittle or unreliable scripts. Examples include: 1. Automating materials procurement from commerce websites 2. Completing complex multi-step workflows (ie getting an insurance quote from Geico.com) 3. Automatically logging into portals and downloading invoices 4. Navigating legacy content systems to do data extraction or data entry
Skyvern is an open source AI-powered browser automation platform that creates executable browser workflows to automate tasks across websites. It emphasizes AI-driven, code-free and code-friendly workflow creation with support for complex web interactions and compliance certifications.
Skyvern runs in the browser to automate workflows across any website, handling logins, forms, data extraction, CAPTCHAs, and 2FA. It offers multiple ways to build: Copilot Chat to describe tasks in natural language, Upload SOPs to convert documents into workflows, Record Browser to capture actions, Visual Workflow Builder for drag-and-drop editing, and Native SDKs for Python and TypeScript with on-premise Docker deployment. It provides observability, structured outputs (JSON/CSV), OCR/document processing, and integration with various tools (Zapier, Make, Slack, Salesforce, etc.). It supports self-hosting, MCP-ready contexts, webhooks, REST API, and can run with Open Source AGPL-3.0 on GitHub, with options to bring your own LLMs and run in production using Docker or SDKs.
Who it’s for: Teams and organizations needing browser-based automation for multi-portal workflows, including functions like data extraction, invoice processing, form filling, lead generation, and QA testing; suitable for enterprises seeking on-premise or self-hosted automation with governance and observability.

I'm the founder of Skyvern. We help companies automate complex workflows using AI agents and computer vision. In the past, I've built the ML Platforms at both Faire and Gopuff, which generated over $100M of GMV across their two businesses, I also love bad jokes and puns, so if you have any or are in the need of any feel free to hit me up!
I am the CTO and cofounder of Skyvern. For the past 5 years, I've been building developer and platform tools. At Lyft, I built testing tools (simulation platform, load test framework, and end to end test framework) used by 1000+ engineers to boost dev productivity, ensure Lyft doesn't go down during peak events, and reduce infra cost. At Patreon, I helped scale the payment and db infra to process 20M+ transactions per month and free 100+ engineers from the 3-day monthly code freeze
