browser-use is a Playwright-based enhancement tool that focuses on combining AI proxy with browser automation, improving development efficiency by simplifying operations and extending capabilities.
Here are its main enhancements to Playwright:
-
AI-driven automation capabilities
-
Natural language interaction: By integrating large models such as GPT-4 and Gemini, users can directly describe tasks in natural language (such as "crawl product prices"), browser-use automatically generates Playwright scripts and executes them.
-
Combining vision and HTML: simultaneously analyze the visual layout and HTML structure of web pages, helping AI to more accurately understand page elements and process dynamic rendering content.
-
Enhanced browser context management
-
Multi-tab page automation: supports automatic management of multiple browser tabs and process complex workflows in parallel (such as monitoring multiple page data at the same time).
-
Persistent sessions: allows the browser window to be kept running for a long time, save history and status, making it easier to debug and state reuse.
-
Custom browser integration: Directly connect to browser instances such as Chrome on the user's local, without logging in or handling authentication issues.
-
Intelligent error handling and recovery
-
Automatic retry mechanism: Automatically try to restore when the operation fails (such as reloading the page, adjusting the click position, etc.), improving the robustness of the automated script.
-
Error log and tracking: Record detailed operation logs and error information to facilitate locating problems.
-
Extended operating interface
-
Preset action library: encapsulates Playwright's underlying API, provides advanced operation interfaces such as "click element" and "scroll to a specified position", and simplifies code writing.
-
Custom action extension: Supports adding user-defined actions (such as saving data to database, triggering notifications, etc.) to adapt to diverse scenarios.
-
Cross-model LLM support
-
Multi-model compatibility: In addition to OpenAI, it also supports models such as Anthropic, DeepSeek, and Ollama, and users can choose on demand.
-
Low-cost solution adaptation: Provide access options for low-cost models such as silicon-based flow, lowering the threshold for use of AI agents.
-
Enhanced data processing capabilities
-
Structured data extraction: Automatically extract structured data such as tables and lists from web pages to reduce the writing of manual parsed code.
-
Context-related operations: Record the XPath path of the user clicking element to ensure consistency of subsequent operations (such as repeating the same process).
The core value of browser-use lies in combining the underlying capabilities of Playwright with AI agents. Through natural language interaction, intelligent error recovery, multi-model support and other features, it lowers the technical threshold for browser automation, and at the same time expands the processing capabilities of complex scenarios (such as multi-tagged parallelism, long-session tasks). For projects that require rapid automation and high stability requirements (such as data crawlers, automation testing), browser-use provides more efficient solutions.
