Browse AI Chrome Extension: What It Does (and Doesn't Do)
The Browse AI Chrome extension is a powerful tool that allows you to easily create web scraping robots and automate tasks directly from your browser. But what exactly does this extension do, and more importantly, what doesn't it do? Let's explore its capabilities and address any privacy concerns you might have.
✅ What the Extension Does
- When you want to automate a task on a website, the extension records your actions, such as clicks, scrolls, and data selections.
- It analyses the webpage (or Origin URLs) to identify the underlying structure and organisation of the data you're interested in, while you're building your robot.
- Once you finish recording an automation, it sends the recording to Browse AI servers to be securely encrypted and stored. You can then have Browse AI run those automations for you regularly on the cloud.
- Optional: You can choose to allow the extension to anonymously collect performance data and report potential bugs, helping us improve the extension. You can disable this in the extension settings.
❌ What the Extension Does NOT Do
- The extension does not collect any personal information about you or your browsing history.
- It does not record any information about your browsing activity when you're not actively recording an automation.
- It doesn't alter your browsing experience; it only runs on a specific website whenever you initiate the recording process.
- It doesn't require you to sign up for paid services. Signing up on Browse AI and running robots to extract up to ~500 records per month is always free.
