Browser Use Desktop App

Run a team of browser agents on your desktop.

Download for macOS Download for Windows Download for Linux

Every AI browser tries to be both a browser and an agent. Keep your normal Chrome — this is just the agent half.

Ports your cookies into a fresh Chromium so agents are logged in everywhere you are, and spawns tasks from anywhere with a keyboard shortcut.

Built on Browser Harness.
