“I redo the same steps in my browser all day long”

People who copy-paste between ten tabs, fill in the same forms, or extract information from websites by hand. If a task takes you 20 minutes every day without thinking, it can be automated.

Recommended agent: Bardeen
💰 $0 to $30/month depending on the number of runs. Level: Intermediate 🌍 United States Permanent free plan (limited runs)

Bardeen (bardeen.ai), an agent that lives in your browser: you show it a task once, it replays it on its own afterwards — extracting data, filling forms, sending results to Google Sheets or Notion.

How it works

Trigger: You launch or schedule a repetitive task — replays the clicks, extracts the data, and fills your tools, and you get the task done, with no copy-pasting.

Step-by-step setup

  1. Install the Bardeen extension in your browser.
  2. Describe your task in plain language or start from an existing template.
  3. The agent builds the automation: watch it run once to validate.
  4. Run it on demand or schedule it daily.
⚠️ Guardrails: Always test on unimportant data before letting the agent touch your real files. Never entrust it with banking credentials.
🔧 Technical details
Installation
hybrid (Chrome extension run locally in the browser, with optional cloud execution to run automations when the local device is off)
Prerequisites
Up-to-date Google Chrome and installing the extension from the Chrome Web Store, per the official guide. A Bardeen account is required to save playbooks.
Hardware
non_applicable
Models
For Magic Box, the official page names no specific model and speaks only of an LLM technology used to build — not run — the automations. For the OpenAI integration, the help center lists text-davinci-003 by default, with ChatGPT, GPT-4, and GPT-4 Plus also supported and a model changeable in the builder; no BYOK is documented.
Data
Per the official Security page, connected-app data is persisted in the browser's local cache and exchanged directly between the browser and the third-party app, with no storage in Bardeen's cloud; in paid cloud execution, the instance has no storage capacity and data is erased after execution. Per the privacy policy, data obtained via third-party APIs is not retained and is not used to train generalized AI models, internal or external; only connected apps and their configurations, plus custom Playbooks/Autobooks, are stored on the servers.
Operations
Team sharing documented in the help center: Personal and Team Space workspaces, playbook sharing by moving them to the team space, and an Admin section on sharing credits within the team.

Not documented in the official sources: Self-hosting, License, API & integrations, Documented limits.
