Reminds me of Kimono Labs [0] and their scraper from way back in the day, or Roborabbit [1], now with AI.

RoboRabbit is interesting and aligns with what I've seen others doing in this space also. This product, and others I am building for, are part of a larger objective I have - which is to allow AI to both understand and fully use websites as if a human viewer themselves. Ideally you'll be able to ask it to book you an uber home, and it'll get the job done - even if uber didn't have API's etc. to make it possible.

It's why my approach here is 'all of the web, and whatever you want' rather than being restricted in any way.

Sounds like what Rabbit AI is doing too, with agents. I'm not sure if they're very successful though, since their product flopped.

It's... not what they are doing. It's what they said they were doing. But also, this isn't in a gimmicky (imo) hardware device. It's a general service so anyone can build on top of it.

Yes, I'm just talking about their supposed software, since it seemed pretty similar to what OP said.
