Its own browser

Every Autobot browses in a browser of its own that you can watch live, take over, record and replay.

Every Autessa Autobot is a browser agent too. It opens real websites in a browser of its own, shown live beside the chat. You can take over and hand back, record what happens as a workflow, replay it with self-healing steps, and turn it into a how-to document.

Everything in its own browser

Every Autessa Autobot has its own browser. Watch it live, take over for a sign-in, record workflows and replay them with self-healing steps.

Its own browser, live

Each Autobot has its own browser. A side panel shows it live while it works, so you see every page it opens instead of a list of tool calls.

  • It opens its own browser. Every Autobot has a real browser of its own. It never starts one until it needs a page.
  • You watch it live. The Browser tab shows each page as it works. Click the preview to see it at full width.
  • You step in if needed. Take over for a sign-in or a captcha, then hand it back.
  • Save what it did. Record the session as a workflow to run again.

Take over and hand back

Click Take over to drive the Autobot’s browser yourself for a sign-in, a captcha or a tricky step, then Hand back and it carries on from that page.

  • Click Take over. The live view becomes yours: click, type, press keys and scroll.
  • Finish the tricky step. A sign-in, a captcha, or the step it kept getting wrong. Native dropdowns show their options right in the view.
  • Click Hand back. The Autobot is told to carry on from the page exactly as you left it.
  • Or just Stop. End the browser session without handing back.

Record browser workflows

Record everything that happens in the Autobot’s browser, your clicks or its own steps, and save it by name as a workflow you can run again.

  • Start recording. Choose Record a workflow. Recording can open the browser on a start address.
  • Do it, or ask for it. Click and type in the browser yourself, or ask the Autobot in chat; both become steps.
  • Name it and stop. Give it a name, like “Login test”. Saving it adds it to Workflows.
  • Run it again. Run any saved workflow from the list, by you or by an Autobot on a schedule.

Self-healing replays

Replays find a step’s element by meaning when a page has changed and mark the step healed, the signal that a site drifted since the recording.

  • Run a workflow. Every step shows its result as it replays.
  • A page has changed. If a step’s element is not where it was, it is found by meaning, “the Create project button”, instead of failing.
  • The step is marked healed. You see exactly which steps needed healing.
  • Treat healed as a signal. For a test, healed means the site drifted since the recording.

How-to docs from a recording

Name a recording, stop it, and the Autobot writes an Autodocs how-to document with screenshots of every step, listed under Docs your Autobots wrote.

  • Record the task once. Do it in the Autobot’s browser, or ask the Autobot to.
  • Stop with a name. “Stop recording and write a how-to doc with this name.”
  • It writes the doc. An Autodocs how-to with every step and its screenshot.
  • Find it later. Listed under “Docs your Autobots wrote about what they did.”
