Browse AI SOP

Appearance

Install ​

Browse AI is a cloud SaaS platform with no local install required. There is no CLI, no npm package, and no self-hosted option.

Step 1 - Create a free account ​

Go to https://dashboard.browse.ai/signup and sign up. No credit card required for the free plan.

Step 2 - Install the Chrome extension (required for robot training) ​

Browse AI uses a Chrome browser extension to let you record robots by clicking through a site. Install it from the Chrome Web Store:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/browse-ai/ppnlcmkbglfnchofhenbpooemhnfjoki

The extension is required to train new robots. Once a robot is trained and saved, it runs in Browse AI's cloud infrastructure and the extension is not needed for execution.

Step 3 - Get your API key (for programmatic access) ​

  1. Log in to the dashboard at https://dashboard.browse.ai/
  2. Navigate to Settings > API or go directly to https://dashboard.browse.ai/api
  3. Copy your API key

Use this key as a Bearer token in all API requests:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
