OpenBUA
Agent that controls your own browser which you use everyday, that has all ur accounts logged in, so u can automate all your boring tasks
Everything your browser can do, automated.
OpenBUA turns your daily browser into an autonomous agent that navigates, researches, fills forms, and drafts outreach without third-party server proxies.
100% In-Browser Execution
Runs entirely client-side as a Manifest V3 Chrome Extension. Zero remote cloud servers, zero Docker containers, zero compute bills.
Pre-Authenticated Sessions
Operates directly in your everyday browser with active logins for Gmail, LinkedIn, GitHub, Notion, and CRMs. No 2FA bypass hurdles or cookie exports.
Autonomous Web Research
Navigates search engines, platforms, and directories across multiple pages. Evaluates candidates and compiles verified structured data automatically.
Live Research Preview Tab
Incremental write-as-you-go streaming preview. Markdown tables stream row-by-row with an automatic repair engine so you never wait for black-box tasks.
Self-Learning Memory System
Extracts facts, contact details, and workflows as you browse. Features Global Memory for your background and Tab Memory for isolated project notes.
Synthetic Form Filling
Matches job portals (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday) and complex wizards against your profile with native synthetic event chains (input, change, blur).
Direct Webmail Outreach
Drafts, reviews, and dispatches genuine emails directly through your logged-in Gmail or Outlook. No SMTP credentials, OAuth permissions, or email APIs.
Human-in-the-Loop CAPTCHA
Detects bot verification challenges (Cloudflare Turnstile, Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha) with a 1-click in-panel alert to solve and automatically resume.
Bot Shield Immunity
Runs as your genuine local browser with authentic fingerprints, bypassing Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, and bot shields that block headless cloud scrapers.
Why In-Browser beats Cloud Browser-Use
Cloud agents struggle with logins, captchas, and privacy leaks. OpenBUA eliminates the entire server layer by running where you already browse.
Session Authentication
Uses your active, signed-in sessions (Gmail, LinkedIn, GitHub, CRM)
Requires re-authentication, 2FA bypass, or fragile cookie imports
Infrastructure
100% Client-Side Chrome Extension (Zero servers)
Spun-up Docker containers, cloud VMs, remote Playwright instances
Data Privacy
Zero data leaves your machine; prompts go straight to AI provider
Browsing traffic and page snapshots stream through remote servers
Cost & Pricing
Free Gemini tier (1,500 requests/day) or Bring Your Own Key (BYOK)
Per-minute cloud compute pricing plus proxy bandwidth costs
Bot Detection
Bypasses headless blocks by running as a genuine local browser
Regularly blocked by Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, and bot shields
Captcha Handling
Human-in-the-Loop alert banner lets you solve challenges in 1 click
Requires expensive third-party captcha-solving API integrations
Real-Time Feedback
Live Research Preview tab streams tables incrementally as agent works
Black-box execution until final summary is returned
Knowledge Retention
Proactive self-learning memory with Global and Tab memory tiers
Ephemeral scratchpads discarded after each session
